Seems to me that there's an untapped market there that could bring some enterprising media company a ton of money.
I'm not opposed to foreign language stations, but if ya want to live here, learn to speak the language. No application for citizenship should ever be considered unless the applicant can speak English.
Somehow I don't see how different ballots for different ethnic groups can be legal (certainly when some in a county are voting electronic while others are voting paper).
English radio has been stagnant for at least a decade. It is part of why the whole music industry has seen such declines. If audiences don't hear new music, sales of new music will also decline.
A Clear Channel executive said that "kids don't listen to rock and roll anymore, wake up". White kids don't listen to Spanish language hip hop either.
This isn't the first time that the industry has tried to kill rock and roll nor will it be the last (certainly in 1995 they tried shifting focus from grunge to boy bands).
Houston's radio dial (especially on AM, but also FM) is a tower of babble of languages (including Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Arabic, and some things I could not identify, possibly Cambodian).
When I caught an AM talk show while strolling the dial, I caught the Arabic station and thought that I might hear their perspective but instead found that only about 4 words in 30 were in English.
We cannot celebrate our diversity if we cannot talk with one another. We are being balkanized as a nation.
