26. The problem is that our airways are now in the hands of a small minority
of extremely wealthy corporations. Corporations who happen to benefit from Republican policies.

I would have no problem with Rush broadcasting his hate fest 24 hours a day, if the radio stations were not ignoring 51% on the population.

This country is split directly down the middle, in fact, it probably leans a little more to the Democratic side of the aisle now, but all you get on AM radio is wing-nut Republican propaganda.

Rush is on the radio for one reason and one reason only...to get Republicans elected and Democrats defeated. That's not the proper use of our PUBLIC AIRWAYS.

Bottom line is that the corporations probably don't give a shit how many advertisers pull out of Rush' show. They probably get more benefit from the Republican policies than they would ever get from advertising.
