NC...On principal, yes- I detest monopoly in the media. News, music, entertainment stink in the US. OVerall, you are happy with network tv. Without a satellite dish, I would not own a tv.
Clear Channel is the force that will homogonize radio.Radio has been somewhat insulated from monopolies. Yes, I am community radio oriented. Centralization and marketing from some corporate headquarters will not diversify content.
I have listened to Clear Channel in San Diego- their dj's are obnoxious,their content drivel. I hope in your town you might have independent radio. Try it.
Lots of web information about CLear Channel. This story I incuded comes from FCC hearings by radio experts. And you might be fooled from what you think you hear on Clear Channel. Radio leads come in from far away and are doctored up to not reveal their origins.
