News Stations here in NYC CBS880 and 1010WINS: I hear ONLY repuke ads!! |
|
I have not heard one single ad for a Dem running for anything in the Tri-state area. I hear ads for McMahon -and she is running in CT!!- I have heard ads for a couple of other local running repukes. I keep hearing about this 'Stop digging when you are in a hole" group..."Bankrupting America"... I have yet to hear even ONE AD for a Democrat running for office....or for any Democratic ideas...
I sure hope the Dems are spending lots of money in the areas that they think REALLY MATTER, since they obviously feel that the NYC Metro area is already won.

They have so much "citizens united" money it is insane.

6. One big problem with corporate radio ownership |
|
Is when the corporation owns multiple radio stations, with various formats all in the same market. Then they often sell advertising time for ALL stations in that market. So if a right wing politician buys ads in that market, it's going on the right wing talk station, the liberal talk station, the top 40 station, the country station, the classic rock station, and anything else they might have on the air in that market.
Of course if ALL the stations in that market got enough calls from pissed off listeners, they might reconsider. So call ALL the CBS affiliates in that area (not just the liberal talk station) and complain about the Republi-spam.
