Three Florida radio stations to broadcast Trump speeches daily until 2020 election
Donald Trump likely benefited from free airtime in the 2016 presidential election, data shows, and that’s exactly what one Florida radio station owner is hoping to dangle for attention.
The three stations ― adult hits station Bob FM on 105.1 WASJ, country music station Kick’n Country on 103.5 WKNK and classic rock station 95.9 WRBA ― are all operated by the new company Gulf Coast Media Inc. and cover Bay County, Florida. Seventy-one percent of voters in Bay County voted for Trump in the 2016 election.
“People really forgot about Bay County. Maybe people don’t consider it a sexy location or don’t know too much about it but I go back and forth all the time and I can tell you ... they’re not getting real money, for some reason. It’s like a forgotten city, a forgotten county,” he said. “The area really needs help.”
The Panhandle has received about $1.1 billion in federal disaster aid through mid-April, according to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Bay County, which has an annual budget of $340 million, meanwhile is still waiting to be reimbursed for $250 million in loans that were used to cover debris removal alone, the Tampa Bay Times reported last week.
The hourly broadcasts will vary in length and be positive messages that are meant to inspire, he said. If Trump doesn’t live up to his word, it’s not guaranteed that the broadcasts will stay. It’ll also be up to the listeners, Rogatinsky said.To comply with Federal Communications Commission equal time rules, the stations will allow comparable airtime for any other 2020 candidates who request it, Rogatinsky told MSNBC.
