Are you thinking that your statement above applies to the radiation from the
vertical monopoles used by commercial AM broadcast stations ?

Their performance has been accurately and carefully measured going back 70+
years, and the "resultant vector" of their radiation at right angles to the
radiator axis certainly is not zero.
