That would go good with your anti-white anti-straight anti-normal
liberal left crap stations and programs on AM.

I like free speech, it's wonderful.


You like living in a fantasy of your own creation. There is no such

thing as
liberal programs left on US AM mediumwave. They're all owned by

Clear
Channel....


Correct on the effect, wrong on the cause. The dearth of liberal
views on AM has nothing to do with Clear Channel, and everything to do
with market forces. I'm in a major market and Limbaugh & Hannity--the
two major AM conservatives--are not on a station operated by Clear
Channel. Now that the monopoly of liberal viewpoints on television
news is being dented, giving people a video alternative, I suspect
that conservatives on AM radio will see some drop off in listnership
and a programs hosted by liberals--such as the new "network" with
Franken and Garafalo funded by rich lefties--may become viable



Uh, excuse me. I kind of think it likely that the right wingos on AM are
in part "funded by rich righties". That is to say, the station owners,
like most well-off people, are probably mostly conservative, and I bet
they don't mind spreading a little right-wing propoganda while making
their money.

Also, for "rich lefties" I suggest substitution of the phrase "educated
lefties". Education, you know, has a way of moving you to the left
because you learn through it that the ideas of your parochial culture of
origin are not set in stone.
