A Latin radio against misinformation

The microphones of La Campesina, a Spanish-language radio station that covers the Arizona, California and Nevada area, are preparing to combat electoral misinformation among the Latino population in the United States. The station founded by civil rights activist César Chavez has an audience average of 750 thousand people in their broadcasts.

The radio's work to inform the community consists of answering common questions about the elections , making tutorials to detect false data and registering new voters. Latinos are projected to represent 14.7%, or more than 36.2 million, of all eligible voters in the November presidential election, a new record.
