Rede Rio FM 89.1

Rede Rio FM 89.1 is a Brazilian radio station based in the municipality of Porto da Folha, in the state of Sergipe, that is described as eclectic, with a mix of music and local/regional content. The station identifies itself as part of the “Rede Rio FM” network, which is known for being widely listened to in the region. Rede Rio FM 89.1 positions itself as serving the region’s “sertanejo” (rural/popular) culture and as a tool for integration of the region, drawing inspiration from the Rio São Francisco, the famous river in the region. Its programming includes music, local news/journalism (like “Jornal da Rio”), and entertainment programs. Also, like the “Old Chico” (a nickname for the São Francisco River), Rio FM 89.1 presents itself as an instrument for boosting the economy of the hinterlands of Sergipe, Alagoas, Bahia, and Pernambuco.
