Stop whining. I listen to WLS a good part of the day.
I did until Dr. Laura "mysteriously" disappeared from the lineup about the
time the radical gay ****s protested her show. Now I do what I can to get
the programming they carry from other cities... which ain't a lot.


A couple months ago, AFN Korea dropped all the talk shows except for Sports
Overnight America. *Rush, Laura, Ed Schultz, etc. They replaced everything
with All Things Considered, Morning Edition, etc. from NPR. *Maybe EIB and
whoever decided they were going to start charging for their programming?

Dems in

- programming on AFN...read that: Rush was on for an hour...and that
he

replacement
- to be more of what NPR offers. NPR being more palatable to the left
- leaning in Congress who hold the purse.

NPR has a decided Left-to-Moderate Voice with a True
Conserevative Vacuum. -aka- Mostly Liberal Propaganda.
-with- Car-Talk being an entertaining exception.

So much for Fair and Balance when it comes to giving
the US Troops both sides of the Political Story from
Home.

Why Is It That : The VOA is not allowed to Broadcast
One-Sided US Government Propaganda to US Citizens.

But it would now 'appear' that AFN is allowed to use NPR
to Broadcast One-Sided US Government Propaganda to
the US Troops and their Families who also happen to be
US Citizens.

yes i said that ~ RHF
