February 6th in 1879, The Texan, the first Czech newspaper in Texas, was founded in La Grange by E. J. Glueckman. This marked the beginning of an important chapter in the state’s history, as Czech immigrants began to leave their mark on Texas culture and society.
Then, in 1928, WOAI-San Antonio became the first radio station in South Texas to join the world’s first communication network, the National Broadcasting Company. This move not only put WOAI on the map as a pioneer in radio broadcasting in Texas, but also marked a significant step forward in the world of communications technology.
