That was my first thought, but I see you're in TX so I thought it was something else.

They've been around for 30 years....hopefully they will go to another station.

Just watched my local news broadcast and in fact the 99.1 WHFS rock station is now providing a 100% Spanish broadcast. Infinity Broadcasting has stated that the increase in Latin persons living or moving into this region is growing and they want to capitalize on that growth.......

:dunno: a friend of my mom's told me a few years ago that WHFS has been around for like 20 something years. So I had a bad source of info. Sorry bout that.

That's not a good reason.

Radio networks: Well WHFS fans, we're taking away your radio station even though you are avid listeners and make us a bunch of money. We're going to give it to the Mexicans because they're a minority, but they deserve this radio station more than you do.

Calm down...HFS has sucked for years. They made the choice STRICTLY based on money. The latino market is a lot bigger than the HFS market, so they went that route.

Yeah its a shock, but life goes on.
Maybe some 101 or 98 Rock will throw a big concert to fill the void thats not 2 DAYS and will have some decent headliners (f**k that greedy 2 day shit)

while thats very true(all fm radio sucks imo) its a huge shock. but most people arnt going ot get too upset, they will just start listening to dc 101 or 98 rock. its not like it was the only staion like this around.

True, but it was the only one that played alternative rock and emo stuff. 98 rock is more hard rock and classic rock, and 101 is more horse-shit kinda rock, and commercials 90 minutes out of every hour. I don't think they made the decision based on money. They had tons of listeners.

The protest is a cute idea, but its not going to change anything.
Just be forewarned.

But it will be a good opportunity to hang out with other distraught HFS listeners and remember the good times.

It was funny. I called my mom on the way home from work to see if she had heard and she was like "What the fuck is this about? I turned to 99.1 and all I hear is a bunch of Mexicans (insert mom's Mexican jibberish here)" I busted out laughing. I've never heard my mom talk like that before. She was seriously pissed. My mom is awesome.

look for the junkies to probably go back to 106.7 and quite possibly take over Stern's spot rather than wait for him to get kicked off.

HFfiesta................Me and my peoples tried to erect a shrine to HFS at school (60% spanish)....pretty much they made it sound like a good thing that "that rock crap" was taken over by the spanish language. So we wrecked the whole thing and told everybody to go shuv it.

HFS was taken off the air for a reason, putting it back on now will only help cause the fans care now, but will lose support over time and they will die out again
