You ever drive through the heartland of America and listen to the radio? Every single station is either Christian radio or right-wing talk shows. Spare us the outrage.
Ah, but they make money whereas leftist radio does not.
In addition to me listening to conservative radio like Rush, I also use to listen to Air America with liberal or leftist hosts.
The difference is that Air America was bleeding money and went bankrupt twice and was being propped up by wealthy leftist until they realized it was a losing cause.
Today the only national liberal radio is NPR (which is funded in part by we the taxpayers) and they are supposed to be neutral, but clearly are not.
I am for freedom of speech, but against propaganda...there's a difference.
Look how well radical Left propaganda has worked out for the mainstream media...Millions of Americans side with me...they too reject propaganda spewed by the fake news MSM.
Do I need to list all the bankrupcies & other financial failures of the fake news media?
Go woke go broke....ask CNN, or Disney, or network news, or most of America's newspapers & mags...even Sports Illustrated.
Soros will start pumping leftist propaganda through all 200+ radio station, & slowly, listeners & advertisers will leave.
the clinton years paved the way for (them) monopolizing big media. the telecom act of 1996 - a death blow to free speech/listening
the ron paul revolution didnt die -- it grew into trump winning 3 presidential elections
This is true. Most do not realize what has happened to radio, the monopolization. It has affected the quality of music too. One reason music truly sucks today.
I don't think the OP bothered to educate him/herself about Audacy's radio stations. Most of them are music stations or sports stations. How exactly is Soros, as a 45% owner, supposed to "pump leftist propaganda" in between songs by Toby Keith and Carrie Underwood? Hilarious.

Do you need to be reminded that print journalism has been undergoing a tremendous shift in its business model over the past 20 years? Or that the current landscape in broadcast ownership stems directly from the Telecommunications Act of 1996?

Music doesn't suck. Commercial radio sucks. All the more reason to support nonprofit radio.

Wrong. Nowadays, music DOES suck (subjective), commercial radio definitely sucks which is why Audacy filed bankruptcy, and nonprofit radio like NPR is marinated in Leftist propaganda.

What is propaganda? News you don't like?

Millions of Americans side with me too. Fake News Media is a term made up by Donald Trump, the king of lies, because MSM dared to call him out. Don the con. The guy who's losing huge lawsuits all over the place and with 91 criminal charges. But you're all in on him, hook line and sinker.

Do I need to list all of the lawsuits against your beloved conspiracy theory riddled, right-wing media for their part in the Big Lie? Talk about Fake News.

One can only hope. It would be about time that we got some balance on the airwaves. Balance of opinions are good, although I get that some people prefer living in a one-sided, partisan bubble.
