the CONS.

here's the math :

at a cheap $1000/hr x 15hrs/day x 5 = $75,000/wk x 1200 stations rw 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.


not only do dems ignore that, and start all political efforts that far down, we don't complain or protest the fact that 100s of the loudest of those stations, including 257 limbaugh stations, depend on hundreds of 'liberal' universities and pro sports teams to keep broadcasting sports on them. without those association that whole propaganda operation would fall apart.
