142. i can explain it. trump is the logical result of ignoring right wing talk radio for 30 yrs

here's the simple math that is ignored every time liberals and political pundits and activists blame FOX and breitbart and russian social media trolling operations or 'economic anxiety' for this 30 year disaster leading to trump.

at a cheap $1000/hr x 15hrs/day x 5 = $75,000/wk x 1200 stations right wing talk radio is worth $18MIL/day or 390MIL$ /month or 4.68 BIL$/ year FREE for coordinated global warming denial, pro republican free market deregulation and wall st think tank propaganda, swiftboating of good citizens, attacks on public education and teachers, passing voter suppression legislation, trying to repeal obamacare, and the hate and fear used to get people to vote republican.

fox and money in politics and media consolidation are symptoms of continuing the biggest political mistake in history - ignoring 300 ignorant think tank-scripted blowhards on 1500 radio stations reaching 50 mil americans a week while they trash good people and liberal ideals and kick dem/left ass for billionaires while pretending its popular sentiment.

the absurdity of ignoring rw radio is exemplified in the fact that liberal activists and progressive orgs ignore the fact that 88 universities (at least) broadcast sports (majority black athletes) on/support 257 of those stations while they spew racism all day.

and i hope that british american doesn't ignore talk radio in england selling brexit all day, supported by russian trolls (was it?)
