Mexican Radio to Beam Chinese Propaganda

A large Spanish-language radio station in Mexico will soon begin broadcasting in Chinese in a deal critics say will bring Beijing propaganda to Chinese Americans throughout Southern California.

A Federal Communications Commission filing on the sale of radio station XEWW AM 690 radio near Tijuana reveals the buyer has ties to Phoenix Satellite Television US, a subsidiary of Hong Kong's pro-Beijing Phoenix TV. According to government sources, signs that Phoenix is involved in the purchase of the radio station prompted the Trump administration last week to begin an investigation into the national security implications of the sale.

Phoenix TV has been identified by U.S. intelligence agencies as a major overseas outlet used to spread propaganda and promote the policies of the communist government in Beijing. The Hong Kong television station also has close ties to China's intelligence service and military.

The deal for XEWW, a 77,500-watt station capable of reaching all of southern California, was brokered by a New York financial company, H & H Capital Partners.

Good thing the Chicoms aren’t using the internet to broadcast propaganda else there’d be a special congressional investigation.

I think Chinese Communism is more watered down than California Communism.

I really liked that song when it first came out. Wall of Voodoo, right?

The US should install a Jammer in that area for that frequency. Or better yet just start a MAGA station on this side of the boarder.

Probably be better than that cucaracha/polka sounding crap that they usually beam.

I'm getting sick of them overpowering local stations with their high powered stations with poor frequency control (intentional?) beaming stuff north (I'm 140 miles north of the Mexico border, and it is a real problem here.)

Yep, China hasn’t shut down cooking on the grill.

Funny story, back in the ‘70’s my dad and were listing to a station out of Mexico. They were selling autographed pictures of Jesus.
