WHY WORRY ABOUT WHO OWNS THE MEDIA?
MoveOn Bulletin Op-Ed by Eli Pariser


A. Less than a half-percent of Americans are listening to the radio at that
hour... in a small town, probably next to nobody.
B. The authorities had the ability to activate the EAS, and get a message on
the air from a central point. No one in local government thought to do this.
C. Most radio stations have been automated or are using syndicated fare in
overnights as of the 70's. The main reason for being on the air overnight in
most markets is to keep from having equipment failures at the beginning of
prime morning drive time.
D. Even before the 70's, many stations ran music with a board operator, not
an announcer.


You're missing the point of the quote, which is that paksplace likes to
use and/or cite rabble-rousing articles to get people motivated, and if
they had as significant an effect on crashing the FCC website as they
claimed, then their tactics seem to work. At least you didn't go shoot
me as if I had written the piece by Eli Pariser, Zionist extra-ordinaire.
No doubt the Yankistani boot-camp trained psychopaths on the NG will also
blame me for having to pay more taxes for federally funded programmes,
regulation and public services like EBS.
