“Since Hurricane Katrina struck New Orleans a year ago, the Hispanic population of that city and surrounding communities has grown dramatically. One beneficiary of the growth has been a small Spanish-language radio station, KGLA. The station recently won the Broadcast Journalist of the Year award from the National Association of Hispanic Journalists for its service to the Hispanic community following the disaster.
KGLA, better known as Radio Tropical Caliente, was a beacon of hope and encouragement for Spanish-speaking people in southern Louisiana after Hurricane Katrina. The station kept the community informed and established a link between displaced residents and their relatives in Latin America.”
