A Spanish Language Television Station in...Nashville?

Absolutely, the Hispanic demographic in Nashville is growing rapidly enough that a local over the air television station, Solo Nashville, has commenced operations, as reported by the Nashville City Paper. The station, which airs on Channel 42, is an affiliate of Univision's Telefutura network.

Nashville's Hispanic population is an estimated 35,000 or so, according to the Census bureau, but the entrepreneur who's backing this station wouldn't have gotten involved with such a venture (in our view) based on such numbers.

Nashville's Hispanic population, along with that of the rest of Tennessee in general, is not only undercounted but growing rapidly, as this recent article from the Nashville Tennessean reports.
