Following the announcement that a left-leaning group of investors is buying Radio Mambí, the longtime talk-radio station of choice for Miami’s exile community, conservative media and Republican politicians seem to agree: George Soros is trying to take over Cuban radio.
Soros, a global philanthropist and substantial Democratic Party donor, has been name-dropped by members of Congress opposed to the deal, which Fox News has labeled a “Soros Takeover.” Some of Mambí’s hosts have cited his links to the sale in their decision to resign.
And this month, an unsolicited text blast from a conservative media startup warned that “the international socialist billionaire” Soros is “trying to silence conservative Spanish voices with the purchase of” WAQI-710 AM Mambí.
