“¿Qué Hay de Nuevo, New Hampshire?” is a daily Spanish language newscast produced by New Hampshire Public Radio, in collaboration with the Granite State News Collaborative.

Before its launch, no Spanish language news service was available in New Hampshire.

Daniela Allee hosts the program, which is distributed primarily on WhatsApp. Daniela explains how she thinks that the program will fill a gap in New Hampshire’s news landscape, but also why she hopes this is just the beginning.

“Public radio is about providing a public service, and sometimes it feels implicit in public radio who that public really is,” said Allee.

“Let’s just say that explicitly… who are we imagining receiving this news? Otherwise you can just forget about people you don’t often think about or don’t interact with.”
