The airwaves are owned by THE PEOPLE. There is no protection for one-sided corporations to come in and grab them and spew nothing but rightwing propaganda. The problem with the rightwing is they never read the Constitution or the laws before they make defensive claims. The fact is all radio stations broadcast at the pleasure of, and only with the poermission of, congress and the people.

I know you think the government should censor the airwaves. Thankfully only a minority of Americans go in for such totalitarian positions.

And don't tell me Limbaugh and Hannity dominate radio because they are so entertaining or they get great ratings. Those slots were PURCHASED for them and remain purchased. Murdoch sunk 500 million bucks into buying up slots for Hannity and O'Reilly before he made a dime in profit.


Sorry but the facts are the folks you named do have great ratings. They make big bucks for themselves, their broadcasters and their sponsors.
