New Air America Program With Latino Point of View Gets ABQ Test

From Soy Blue:
There's a new show premiering on Air America’s Albuquerque affiliate, 1350 AM-KABQ, this weekend. The show is hosted by Albuquerque's own NYT best selling author Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez and her father, who is a professor of sociology at the University of New Mexico. The show is called "Our America," and is a progressive political and cultural program in English with an emphasis on the Latino point of view on issues of the day.

The show will only be heard in the Albuquerque market as a demo show. After December 10,  Air America will make a decision on whether to air it in other markets. If we can create a buzz on the blogosphere we may be able to help Our America stay on the air.

Check out the diary with a poll at Daily Kos if you’d like to read more about the new show.  Info is also posted at Soy Blue. If you're so inclined, go ahead and post a comment at the diary and vote. One last thing -- forward this to your respective lists if you think that Our America should be heard on Air America nationally.
