AM station asshole Larry Hansgen

[Dirty Socialist]

I complained to my local station’s (WHIO Dayton) program manager Larry Hansgen) a while ago about the fact that the sration is almost 24/7 right wing propaganda. His reaction? “I would program the devil himself if he gets high ratings.”
Thanks for your honesty, asshole
