Tuning Out On Tio Sam
</hdr><body>
<p>By Sidney Urquhart/Reported by Andrea Sachs
</p>
<p> With Cuba an increasingly lonely holdout against the
stampede away from communism, what better time for the
anti-Castro RADIO MARTI to turn up the volume and hasten Fidel's
political demise? Instead, a recent U.S. Information Agency
study shows a shrinking audience. Radio Marti employees blame
their director, Rolando Bonachea, for the defections. Bonachea
has tried to "professionalize" the station's programming by
increasing its anticommunist rhetoric. Castro's stations, by
contrast, have won listeners back by giving them what they want:
rock 'n' roll.
