Can anyone speak to this in other markets?
B87.7 was a part of this write-up on Urban Radio and how it relates to campaigning and politics in Boston (which does not exist on the legal FM Dial) that was front page on the 'website today. Folks like 'Boston Rob' are engaging with Notorious VOG on Twitter. This is, of course, apart from city police, politicians etc.
Is there any other pirate in the US that has so much visibility and cloud and is going on 15 years strong?
Boston mayoral candidates find new ways to reach an audience amid a pandemic - The Boston Globe
"Besides “Politics and Prosecco,” there’s “Java with Jimmy,” also a regular Facebook Live stream. Hosts on the “Notorious in the Morning” radio show on b87fm.com, which bills itself as Boston’s urban radio station, have equally called out and praised candidates in the mayor’s race (a few have been guests), and weighed in on matters such as disparities in the COVID-19 response and vaccination effort. And Ron Bell, a longtime political operative in Boston, has been hosting the “Boston Black News” program on Boston Praise and Radio TV, which describes itself as the only “church-based, Black-owned” multiplatform broadcaster in New England."
"Paul Parara, the radio host known as Notorious VOG, said his listeners are loyal because they expect him to challenge public officials on issues affecting Black and brown communities. He’s featured officials such as state Representative Liz Miranda, Governor Charlie Baker, and Senator Edward Markey on the show. Now, he’s seen candidates and elected officials become even more eager to connect with him and his audience.
City Councilor Michelle Wu, the first candidate to challenge former mayor Martin J. Walsh before he was tapped for President Biden’s Cabinet, has appeared multiple times. State Representative Jon Santiago, also a mayoral candidate, has appeared, and discussed the COVID-19 pandemic (he is also a doctor), and City Councilor Andrea Campbell, another candidate, appeared as well."
