CMG Orlando Switching Things Up

6

Starting Monday, June 29 Cox Media Group will launch Spanish language station Exitos 96.5 FM. News/Talk WDBO-FM moves back to 580 AM and 107.3 FM. The ESPN Station on 580 will be moved to an HD-2.

The move puts Exitos 96.5 FM in a position to serve a growing Hispanic community in Central Florida. The News/Talk audience will also be enhanced.

“WDBO continues to be Central Florida’s home for news, weather, and traffic,” said Keith Memoly, Director of Branding and Programming for WDBO. “With this move, the best news team in the business will be able to serve the Orlando community on multiple platforms.”

“With two dominant TV stations, six radio brands, and various digital platforms, Cox Media Group Orlando delivers the largest audience in Central Florida,” said Jason Meder, VP/GM, CMG Orlando Radio. “This move strengthens our portfolio of radio brands and reflects our commitment to serving the diverse community of audiences and advertisers in the market.”

  1. I can’t get a signal in house or car in Kissimmee area.
    Have been a listener for many years and am so very disappointed. Very poor decision by management and yes it does appear politically motivated.

  2. I’m going to be leaving it too. This is a sad move that shows just how much wdbo cares about those who have tuned in for years. They’re not being diverse, they’re bowing to the left, again. When do people stop this crap? You had a great station. You ruined it when forgot about the people who made you great. No sense in listening to a station you can’t hear and no one else can find. If I wanted to listen more Spanish music, I’d turn on one of my other stations. I want to hear NEWS THAT ISN’T BOUGHT OUT BY THE LEFT. THAT’S WHAT MADE YOU SPECIAL, THAT YOU WERE BOLD ENOUGH TO TELL THE TRUTH. GOOD RIDDANCE TO THE NEW RUBBISH.

  3. Neither FM or AM stations(former 96.5) are clear in the Central Florida area..Seriously is this a political statement? Just when the “Fake News” is being revealed, and the truth is being shared, we are censored? There are plenty of Spanish stations on AM and FM certainly” the powers that be” transferred 96.5 for their own agenda…hhhmmmm

  4. I live in Daytona Beach & the 96.5 move is not strong enough signal. Never had issues with 96.5. Guess we won’t be tuning in over here.
