Heck, he'll just come back with MAJOR lies. Nothing new.


Nobody today keeps documents beyond legal retention requirements. With the
cost of record retention (space, logistics, etc.) nobody wants a museum in
their radio station.


Looks like it is time for you to head back to Ecuador and straighten out
your past.

ABC could likely not produce the papers proving it owned WABC in 1964.
No
document retention rules or laws or guidances even suggest document
retention beyond a decade or so. This is more than 40 years!
And yet, you yourself, have documents on your very own website older
than 40
years.

Nice try, oh faux one. But, it ain't playing in Peoria.
Come on boy, where's your quick response?

Like I said, even the FCC does not retain records beyond, in most cases,
the late 70's. If there are any US stations continuously owned since the
60's, I doubt most could prove the original license grant or transfer.



Every radio station I've ever worked had documentation back to the first
days. Even WDZ, Decatur, had it's Instruments of Authorization from the
days when it was an experimental, owned by a grain elevator operator in
Tuscola.


None of the 75 or so I work with has much going back beyond legal record
retention requirements. In fact, most companies have document disposal rules
that require disposal of old papers beyond a certain point to avoid
everything from fire hazards to the rental of excess storage facilities.


SNIP

You have reasons to shred documents that most people don't have.

No, it is a Military station intended to serve, and only serve, military
personnel on base. In fact, in US territories where the FCC licenses
stations, they are not supposed to get any signal off the base.


Any signal? Obviously you're showing yet again your ignorance of real
radio, you
stinking little prick.


The actual term is "significant signal" and that means that such a station
should not be listenable more than a few hundred meters from a base. Use of
carrier current or very low power FM is the answer.


"significant signal" does not matter according to you.

OK, here is one for you: How many people have the close of escrow papers
for homes they have not owned for 40 years? For most people, the house is
the biggest investment they would ever make, yet probably 99.9% of people
do not keep that kind of paperwork.
I do. I have all the records from every car I've ever owned.


That indicates why you think others would have similar papers. Most people,
the vast majority of them, don't.


M
Once a year has passed when I dispose of a car, I dispose of the papers.
That's beyond my limit of any liability, so good riddance. And I must have
had 35 to 40 cars over the years, too Houses, maybe two to three years.
And
I've had about 12 or 13 of those. And so on.
I even have my grandfather's from the house in River Forest.

He certainly belongs to a family of pretenders.

When nearly nobody in the 18-34 demo in the US listens to Rush or any
other
political talker, why would they listen when abroad?

Nice spin. People that call in to the program don't sound over 50. They
sound like they are 20 to 40 years old. Mom's with kids and many topics
revolve around kids, school.


The call screeners purposely exclude the dangerous blue-haired women and
senile old men, and purposely pick people in the youngest demos. They
know
that 9 out of 10 over 55 callers will want to talk about social security
and
Medicare, and they diligently keep these callers off the air. You don't
really think these shows let anyone at all on the air, do you?


Since they can fill the shows with 20 to 40 years old middle aged people
then they must be the a big proportion of the listeners. Most of the
commercials are aimed at the middle class, middle age group.


On the major talk shows except Dr. Laura, I seldom hear anyone who is not at
least in their mid to late 30's. Although about 60% of the average AM
news/talker is over 55, there still are enough in younger demos to fill up
the phone lines. As you apparently don't know, talk shows have a call
screener or, in some cases, several and often tens of lines. Their purpose
is to skew the demos younger, get most of the 55+ callers put in to "hold
hell" and to get calls that make the show interesting. 99% never get on the
air because of this. The host at all times has a computer screen showing
each call by content, age, sex, where calling from, etc. So they pick the
best one for each situation.

A syndicated talk show that cumes in the millions, or like Rush, tens of
millions, has no trouble in getting a few under-55 callers. And that is all
they need to make the show sound fresh... even if they represent a small
percentage of listeners.

The US Congress 'granted' US Citizenship to the Residents
of Puerto Rico and the US Congress 'could' take it away.

they can not take away the right of citizenship as the pople alive today
have no prior citizenbship to revert to.

But - More importantly the peoples of the "Commonwealth"
of Puerto Rico can by simply Voting to be an Independent
Nation -and- Say Bye-Bye to US Citizenship [.]

Less than 2% of the votes in the last elections were for the independence
party. The rest were about half and half for continued commonwealth status
and for statehood parties.

"Youngest demos" for talk is generally 35-44.


I hear people in their twenties all the time. Many are servicemen or the
wives of serviceman.


Less than 3% of the average talk station's audience is under 35. In the case
of KGO, a recognized leader in talk, the percentage under 35 is 1%.

The driving force in closing AFRTS Ramey and AFRTS Buchanan was the

which objected, on legal grounds, to those stations covering way too
much
of the civilian population when an LPFM would suffice. Considering
that,
at the time, the environmental damage and health risk the Navy was
putting the Municipality of Vieques through at the time, the PRBA was
rather adamant about this invasion of Puerto Rican airwaves by the US
military.





Once again, you demonstrate my point for me.

If the point is to show how many ugly things the US has done abroad, then
that's right.


That's pretty offensive Eduardo. Why don't you just head back to South
America. We don't need your kind in the USA.


What is offensive about saying what most well travelled and educated people
know... that the US is quickly losing its edge and competitiveness and
influence. Would you rather bury your head in the sand?

What the US needs to learn is that in this time of competition for
resources, most of the world hates US. Our interventionist policies, going
back to the Monroe Doctrine, have made the US widely hated. A change in
attitude is long called for.
