The BBC’s Latin American radio and online service, BBC Mundo, has entered a rebroadcasting agreement with Chile’s longest running radio station, Radio Chilena.
ChilenaSoloNoticias is Chile’s only broadcaster with an exclusively information-led format. Specializing in mainly news and sports, it broadcasts through its 19 stations and partner stations to the whole country on AM, FM and via satellite.
James Painter, Head of BBC Latin American Service, welcomes this satellite rebroadcasting agreement with Radio Chilena: “It will help further extend our presence in Chile, offering our valued Chilean audiences extensive news coverage and programmes instilled with the impartiality that characterizes the BBC. We are also very happy that the agreement extends to the digital media and includes an exchange of hyperlinks and content between bbcmundo.com and radiochilena.cl.”
