91. 15 of 16 2010 NCAA basketball universities endorse limbaugh/1% by broadcasting on its stations-
and all OWS objectives above are harder because the left lets universities endorse RW radio.

talk radio is the samson hair of the modern republican party. it has turned the party of lincoln into the party of limbaugh and made the difference the last 20 years, right under the 'left's' noses because there is no readable record. all OWS points harder while 1% radio ignored. all the OWS objectives you outline are made harder because there is NO organized opposition to the right wing radio monopoly.

legislation to fix the problem will be too slow or impossible. cit united requires that the 1%s best weapon can no longer be allowed to kick internet ass.

we allow our universities to contradict their own mission statements and require their students who don't have TVs or high speed to listen to RW radio stations for their uni sports..

those stations rely on those associations and they need to stop. if unis were challenged by their communities about the global warming denial, racism, sexism, lies, etc. many of those stations would have to consider losing local sponsors and going out of business or balancing programming or going to sports or music.

without their radio monopoly for that coordinated repetition to 50 mil a week they are toothless to intimidate pols and media and keep the GOP in lock step. and they'll lose their ability to create their own teabagger reality.
