I really think the word really needs to get out on this. Wikipedia has a pretty good article on it.

(4,835 posts)I remember after the 2000 election; one of the concerns about Clear Channel was that some monopoly regulations had to be gutted in order for them to take over so many markets.
It seems like Tom Hicks was the guy who was putting all this together, and he was the one who basically bought George W. Bush his ranch (indirectly).
So this huge right-wing radio monopoly is really a 21st century creation.
Would anyone like to join me in trying to restore the regulations that were in place before hate radio became so prominent?
