Thank you.

Some of us have been concerned for years that the Federal Govt was building a
national propaganda network using our tax dollars (direct and indirect).

More recently, "public" stations, have been carrying out-and-out commercial ads
(which are FCC-prohibited) in competition with profit-making broadcasters. All
of this in the "educational band 88-92 MHz)".

How much education have you heard on radio the last 10 years? Five minutes?

If "Public Radio" were happening in Russia, we'd laugh at it as a government
propaganda machine.

Here in the US, NPR/CPB decide to emphasize "talk & news" and 800 stations drop
music and follow?

It stinks. And the LPFM initiative is being crushed.

An interesting aspect of FCC rules supporting the incumbents is that FM "Class
D" channels, which cover a small community, give preference to out-of-area
existing broadcasters, because they can have multiple translators on multiple
channels running 250 watts each, while LPFM applicants are limited to a single
100 watt channel and they are required to originate ONLY local programming,
while the translators are prohibited from originating local programs.

Fox News. No tax dollars required.

Schickele Mix - a solid hour once a week.

That actually did suck. WNYC dropped all of its daytime music
programming, even though it has separate FM and AM outlets.
