You mean business, don't you? You appear to be a businessman who has
nothing but disdain for radio.
Radio, except for government run facilities, is a business. Even private
sector non-commercial stations, like HCJB, are businesses with budgets
and
systems intended to make them run efficiently.

Most broadcasters know that they can not have a successful business
without
listeners. So I have considerable respect for the listener and spend most
of
my time finding out at the street level what they want from radio
stations
in their market. MW and FM stations' markets are, today, the metropolitan
area where they operate, not someplace far away... so for such cases,
"listener" is synonymous with "local listener."

Having lived and worked many decades ago in a nation where, at one time,
domestic SW was the only "local" radio for a significant part of the
population, I can still remember when SW might have fit a commercial
station's business model. Today, in most places, it does not. Any disdain
I
feel is for those who think that yesterday's radio is relevant today.
Ain't that the nation that tossed your lying ass out?

When you have risked your life and property to defend democracy, let me
know.

Please, enlighten us once again with your tales!


Yeah, even I want to hear about how you defend democracy by leaving
the conflict.

The heroes I know, who risked life and property to defend democracy
took up arms and brought the fight to those who would challenge democracy.

There is no risk in leaving the fight behind.


And as I said some time ago, the only thing I've ever heard you
renounce is your citizenship.
