What’s billed as the only full-power Spanish-language broadcast television station here launched Friday, further underscoring the boom in the region’s Hispanic population since Hurricane Katrina.
The Telemundo affiliate has been carried recently on some cable and satellite systems and is expected to be on more next month, said Ernesto Schweikert III, general manager of KGLA-TV Channel 42. The launch was marked by a luncheon attended by Telemundo hosts Candela Ferro and Alejandro Blanco.”*
