29. oho state u would be a good place to protest
Wed Jan 25, 2017, 12:31 PM

because it supports 6 limbaugh stations

Students can amplify protests at state capitols and town halls w/out leaving campus.

here are 88 universities that would be good places for scientists to protest , with the number of limbaugh stations they broadcast sports on and support - all support trump, global warming denial, and defunding public education. these stations use their university associations to attract advertising to pay for their support for trump/republicans and it's basically free for them.

this was a major factor in republican success the last 30 years. without these major stations the talk radio monopoly would fall apart and republicans couldnt do shit
