I remember how you used to turn on the radio in different parts of the country so you could hear the unique "voice" or "sound" of that region. Forget that; nowadays everywhere you go, radio sounds exactly the same. It's all Clear Channel or Entercom or one of the other mega-corps. I have no political objection, really. In the age of the Internet, anybody has access to mass media. But it bothers me that the only independent, unique radio stations are run by colleges. Commercial stations have found they can make more money serving up the same old crapola from coast to coast.
At least that let Rush Limbaugh save the world...
LITERALLY.
He was the jaws of life in every sense of the word.
Bull. There are plenty of those stations. It's boring as hell. Even the local Clear Channel station has a local drive-time show that would be lucky to be amateur hour. All of the local shows are execrable.
