This radio station has a strong leftist political tendency, as it is affiliated with the March 26 Movement which was a founding member of the Broad Front, from which it split off to found the Popular Unity.^[3] During Broad Front governments it denounced repeated attempts at discrimination through methods such as denying state advertising funds and electricity services being cut off.^[4][5]

Many cultural and political figures in Uruguayan history worked at or had participation in Radio Centenario, such as Alfredo Zitarrosa, Gastón "Dino" Ciarlo, and José Germán Araujo.^[3]
