Patrick Mantaiga, publisher of La Gaceta, the nation's only trilingual newspaper

By Rob Lorei

Today on Radioactivity we talk about the latest political issues facing the Tampa Bay Area with Patrick Mantaiga, editor and publisher of La Gaceta, the only trilingual newspaper in the country that has been covering local news from Ybor city for 93 years. With Mantaiga we discuss Hillsborough County’s transportation dilemma, mobility fees, the giant video screen at Raymond James Stadium—and a large group of Cuban immigrants on their way  to the US.
