Below here is a post on Facebook from Carl
Wolfson. Carl was a very successful Liberal radio talk-show host on KPOJ
in Portland Oregon, until two days after the election, when Clear
Channel gave him the boot. Whut....? But that's not all...CC [Clear
Channel] is managing to buy up most of the public airwaves in the USA,
but without reflecting 'community' in their broadcasting. The FCC needs
to look at this. I live in hyper-Blue Athens GA and I can hear ZERO that
is not FAR-RIGHT political non-sense. This is MONOPOLY, this goes
against the American principle of Free Speech! We must stand up to this
as freedom loving individuals to protect the public square/the public
airwaves for truly free speech!
We as a nation MUST start considering this MONOPOLY OF THOUGHT that has
been purchased by Clear Channel and Cox Broadcasting and WABC NY. They
are truly subjecting America to PROPAGANDA and leaving no room for
countering thought. This, even as their views are less popular. IT IS
NOT RIGHT.

Message from Carl-
"
Thanks to all of you for your kind comments and passion for progressive radio in Portland. And special thanks to Tom Dwyer, Bill Dickey, Tom Barreto
and all of our loyal advertisers. KPOJ made money for Clear Channel
for many years, and I will put our lineup up against the likes of Rush
Limbaugh and Michael Berry any day. More soon."
