finally applying actual demand for the hate and lies instead of supplying advertisers to the monopoly.

llimbaugh is dying and they can't replace him with one guy on 600 radio stations - and they can't charge as much in advertising on those stations. many of them are already losing money. the ad industry want's the ears those loud stations reach

artificial intelligence makes it easier and cheaper to digitize and monitor rw radio by an order of magnitude. monitoring without listening. that means stoprush x100 is coming. those stations just spent 2 months outright calling covid a hoax and now echoing and reinforcing trump. those blowhards are responsible for thousands of deaths.

on top of facing that the radio ad industry needs to know it would only take one black athlete to tell his team he didn't want the team broadcasting on RW racist radio to get all teams, college and pro, to have to dissociate with KKK radio

all it would take is for some advertising magazine to publish a piece pointing this stuff out and they will start to force the break up of the monopoly rather than see an exodus of advertisers from those stations.

yeah i liked shultz too. they just made it impossible for talkers like him. randi rhodes too.
