3 Florida radio stations vow to broadcast Trump speeches daily until end of 2020 election

Three Florida radio stations will air two-minute snippets of Trump speeches every hour of every day -- perhaps sometimes twice an hour -- until the 2020 election. Samuel Rogatinsky, the owner of the stations, said, “We ran it by a bunch of listeners and people in the area, and nobody’s upset about it. It’s Republican territory. Nobody’s offended by it. It’s not an issue.” Rogatinsky’s newly formed company, Gulf Coast Media, recently purchased Classic Rock WRBA-FM 95.9, Country WKNK-FM “Hank FM” and Adult Hits WASJ-FM “BOB FM,” whose signals cover Bay County (FL).
