History[link]

Under the ownership of "Aracelia Ortiz, Executrix of the Estate Of Carlos Ortiz" (co-founders of La Familia Network and Fe-TV), it broadcast programming from TBN Enlace USA 24 hours a day, as KNEZ-CA. In March 2007, the station was acquired by Entravision Communications Corporation, owners of KLDO-TV and KETF-CA, with the intent to affiliate the station with the Fox network. In July 2007 Entravision changed the station's callsign to KXOF and began to air Fox programming.

Laredo did not have a Fox affiliated station since 2002, when the network was carried on XHFTX-TV (now XHLAR-TV, a secondary Televisa affiliate). Between 2002 and 2007, Laredo could only receive Fox programming on Time Warner Cable through San Antonio's KABB.

Johnny Boy are an indie pop band from Liverpool, England which consists of two members; the London born Lolly Hayes and the Liverpool resident Davo (the latter of which is a pseudonym). Both of them, when asked about their roles in the duo, commonly specify them by giving the generic answer of "Vocals, loops and guitars".

Biography[link]

Formed in 2002, Johnny Boy take their name from Robert De Niro’s character in Martin Scorsese's film, Mean Streets. Their debut single, "Johnny Boy Theme" featured Scorsese's opening voice-over from the film.

Their single "You Are The Generation That Bought More Shoes And You Get What You Deserve" was produced by James Dean Bradfield (of the Manic Street Preachers) and achieved critical acclaim.^[1][2][3] The single reached #50 in the UK Singles Chart in August 2004.^[4] Bradfield also co-produced their debut album, Johnny Boy, which received mixed reviews.^[5][6][7][8]

Johnny Boy describe their sound as "Church bells, boy-girl vocals, loops, twists, warps, walls of sound and edgy guitars combined to rekindle the idea of Sandinista!-era Clash having an, erm, shootout with Phil Spector".^{[citation needed]}
