The Liberal DaviD Screams - "Speak English you freak."

DaviD then goes on to say - "The is the USA.
No government broadcasting stations are necessary."

So DaviD 'you' are infavor of doing away with the
Voice of America (VOA) ? -and- Public 'Owned'
Radio Stations ?

Just for your information, under US law, government based stations are
prohibited from broadcasting directly to the US Population. While you
can hear the VOA here it is primarily meant for those in Europe, Africa,
Asia, and Central and South America. Not for domestic consumption.
Furthermore, unlike most of the rest of the world, the US has never had
a government sponsored broadcaster SUCH as the VOA. Not to mention that
the US media is in private hands and generally owned by 12 or so large
corporations.

The law was passed due to the possibility of such a station to become a
propaganda outlet much like what Hitler possessed in Nazi Germany. That
was the prohibition on having domestic government sponsored stations.
Now in the 1930s and 40s, US stations such as WLW 700 in Cincinnati as
well as other large clear channel broadcasters did operate shortwave
facilities in the US. Furthermore PBS isn't in a true sense a government
station although it gets funding from the government and public at large.


DaviD - Meters Do Not Hertz Me ! -and- Meter's
are just another way of communicating relative
things about Shortwave Broadcasting Frequencies
on an International level to all readers around the
World. Who while they may read and understand
the English Language - "Think-in-Metric !"


david - I am glad we are communicating
- now go enjoy your radios ~ RHF
