We need to loosen up the license distribution for low and medium power radio if we want a freer market. Radio is a closed market enforced by the Feds. The fairness doctrine is a democrat solution for a democrat problem not an attempt at free speech protection.

Great minds think alike!

Radio ownership consolidation has not provide any benefits to the public...and it is the public airwaves!
