White male septuagenerarian. Still masking. Posts will be sporadic at best. I can barely use my flip phone, so don't expect pics. Am enjoying the hell out of this site's content. (I was banned, for no apparent reason, from xitter, a blessing.) Peace, ffs.

The number of conservative talk-radio stations in the US? Over 1,500. Add the many religious outlets which invariably lean right. Progressives can't counter this level of propogandizing, having fewer than 100 stations nationwide. This isn't even close to a fair fight.

You are up to date.
