Is the timing of the biggest Lib on Earth buying America's 2nd largest radio company 9 months prior to a national election a coincidence?

I think not. These radical Libs will not go away quietly.

210 radio stations are involved.

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.

Outrage? Really Dramatize much?

left-leaning billionaire George Soros

No, he's not "left-leaning." Only an uber-leftie would feed us such watered-down hogwash. He's an old commie from way back.

And given the way most media outlets already operate, i.e. left and lefter, I don't see how this will change the course of these radio stations. Maybe have a "Remembering Lenin" hour? Please.

You start a baseless thread about election tampering, and then accuse others of drama because they call you on it?

How odd ... I don't see the words "election" or "tampering" in the link provided by the OP. Maybe they were written in invisible ink?

Another baseless thread for sure. And we can all thank Congress and the Telecommunications Act of 1996 for relaxing ownership rules for broadcast entities. There is nothing illegal about any one person owning a 45% stake (per the link in the OP) of a broadcast corporation, nor is there anything illegal about Audacy owning the number of broadcast stations it does.

Most Americans aren't listening to radio any longer, and the ones who are aren't listening to commercials and political ads. Not sure what the strategy is here but talk radio is dying out in favor of podcasting. Of course more than half the AM dial is filled with Spanish speaking stations, so maybe that's his strategy...appeal to the influx of illegals pouring in...who probably don't listen to radio either.

Audacy owns 227 stations across the country. One dozen of them are Spanish language or Spanish music stations. Try again.

Good thing that I don't listen to radio stations especially public radio.

Traveling to Florida as a child in the early 60s I didn`t know what to make of it when I heard a Spanish radio station. I learned something that day and I like learning things. Problem?
