without the ability to piggyback the sports teams of these 90 universities, 268 limbaugh stations, which do global warming denial all over the country and elect republicans, would probbaly fold or change programming. the entire rw radio monopoly and the republicans most important media advantage would fall apart, giving dems supermajorities to do something.
