Manuel Prieto, new regional director of Onda Cero Andalusia

Prieto, who will combine the position with the Antena 3 delegation, will take over from Pepe Fernández.

Journalist Manuel Prieto Romero, Antena 3 delegate in Andalusia, has been named the new regional director of Onda Cero, taking over from Pepe Fernández.

Manuel Prieto, natural de Lora del Río (Sevilla), se incorporó en 1990 a la redacción de Antena 3 Televisión, siendo el primer presentador de las emisiones en Andalucía de una televisión privada. Desde entonces, ha conducido y dirigido el semanario de actualidad Andalucía a Fondo y los espacios Noticias de Sevilla y Noticias de Andalucía. En 1992 fue nombrado delegado de Antena 3 Televisión en Andalucía, cargo que a partir de ahora compaginará con la dirección regional de Onda Cero. También ha sido colaborador de los programas radiofónicos A toda radio, Sevilla en la Onda, Gente de Andalucía y Ruedo Andaluz.

The Onda Cero Directorate has reached an agreement with Pepe Fernández for his replacement as head of that Regional Directorate. The decision, which materialized in a meeting held last week in Seville, has been made by mutual agreement and to the full satisfaction of both parties.

Pepe Fernández, who participated as a journalist in the founding of Onda Cero Radio in 1990, was appointed to the position of regional director and director of Onda Cero Sevilla on July 1, 1993. After having overcome a serious coronary problem last year, both parties have considered it appropriate to step away from management tasks, given the tension inherent to said activity at the current time.
