Editing XEW-AM (section)

=== XEW-FM ===
The FM frequency, 96.9, received its concession on April 28, 1962; it was not launched until the 1970s, and by the end of that decade, it carried a [[disco]] format. By 1981, it had changed to "Rock Stereo". On September 9, 1985, it was renamed "WFM" with an English rock and pop format, being the direct competition of [[XHSON-FM]] (then known as "Rock 101"). Among the DJs that conformed the station were [[Alejandro González Iñárritu]], Martha Debayle and Charo Fernández.

After 14 years, in 1999, the station changed its name and format to "W Radical."  It was directed by the former head of "Rock 101", Luis Gerardo Salas, airing [[electronic music]] and [[eurodance]]. By 2001, it returned to its former WFM format with the slogan "Frecuencia Adictiva."  In late 2002, after the association of Televisa Radio and PRISA, management decided to simulcast the same programming on AM and FM.  Thus XEW-FM became a news and talk outlet, albeit musical programming can still be heard on overnights and weekends when live sports broadcasts are not scheduled.
