"Completely tone deaf many White liberals cling to "freedom of speech" when any attempt for the public owned airwaves represent any other opinions other than those of White racists. "

Here we go again! You know what? I bet there is plenty of airwave space available for a new AM radio station, why not start one up yourself rather than complaining that there is only right-wing stuff on AM? It's not like each and every AM radio freq. is being used by the right wing.

Let's stop worrying about getting the government to control technology that came and pretty much went last century.
