WWL isn't changing their programming and this won't impact them. Scoot will still be Scoot and Bobby will still be Bobby. I would leave the station if it did.

This fact has somehow been completely forgotten by most. Yes, sandwiched between Tommy “I’m so uncontroversially middle of the road” Tucker and an old woman who tells everyone she is a man, Newell is Rush Limbaugh.

Probably good for America if he ties up a lot of his money and minions broadcasting his bullshite on radio stations that no one listens to. Those resources might otherwise be spent buying elections and funding socialists directly.

His son, at least, sounds like a complete dumbass whenever he opens his mouth.

Why is the FCC allowing a foreigner to do this?

No, you expect others to read your mind and know the details not provided in your vagueness.

Media existed LONG before radio stations. And, as you state, have been manipulated but that IS NOT WHAT I SAID. I was specifically referring to the purchasing of radio stations, through front corporations and individuals, and then utilizing them to run psy ops and "fake news" (a much more recent term) for the purpose of manipulating THE MEDIA. Hell, AM Radio didn't even exist until late 1890's / early 1900's. First commercial radio station wasn't until 1920.
That may very well be what you intended to say, but that's not what you originally said. You were much more vague in your original statement: "You know who invented manipulation through the control of radio stations and newspapers? The CIA."

I stand by my statement that the CIA were the front runners in the practice of media manipulation through broadcast radio and newspaper ownership. Yes, there were uses of newspapers by non-state actors but that's not really different than a single reporter exerting bias. It's different, at least to me, when a government does it covertly.
No one is disagreeing with you here. But again, that's not what you originally said. Its as if you claimed Charles Lindbergh was the first person to ever fly, and after you're corrected that it was actually the Wright Brothers, you say, "NO, Charles Lindbergh was the first person to fly across the Atlantic". Well, no shite. Details matter, Mr. jbgleason. Details matter.

Same company, just new owners.
WWL seems to be one of the few holdouts of the old style news/talk/sports station that hasn't gone completely to news/talk or completely to sports.
I think WWL does a pretty good job of playing the middle when it comes to politics. I know this because some people think they are conservative and others think they are liberal.
