they can talk all they want about needing and wanting "to reinforce the larger concept of community,", but by broadcasting tarheels sports on those stations they are all in on the propaganda operation that blankets their communities with sexism. racism,homophobia and global warming denial, and anything else to pollute 'community".

and without that tarheels endorsement many of those stations would go belly up.
