They were buying up smaller companies and then eliminating public programs on birth control, LGBT+, etc.
Michael Kevin Powell (son of Colin) is an American attorney and lobbyist who served as the 24th chairman of the Federal Communications Commission from 2001 to 2005. Since leaving office, Powell has worked as the president of the National Cable & Telecommunications Association (NCTA), a broadband industry trade association.
Michael Powell was appointed to the FCC by President Bill Clinton on November 3, 1997, and was chosen by President George W. Bush to serve as chairman of the commission on January 22, 2001.
There was major protest against Clear Channel back then -- to stop it's monopoly of the airwaves
I'm just pointing out how long this control of the airwaves has been going on.
People need to wake up.
The left tried their own radio programs, no one was listening.
It was a failed business model.
