THIS IS WORTH FOLLOWING

KRLA, a solid wingnut station that has its own page on Clownhall, is being sued for using the public airwaves to push the GOP's agenda. I have some problems with this but it's clear that the public airwaves should not be used to push lies and agit-prop. I would think a 10 minute rebuttal period for each 3 hour show would be appropriate. Salem Communications bought Clownhall about 2 years ago and has connections with the reactionary Council for National Policy.

GLENDALE — A Los Angeles man has filed a lawsuit against a conservative talk radio station — which broadcasts from the city — claiming the station and its media company misrepresented their federal license agreement by serving the interest of the Republican Party rather than the public.

David Birke and his attorney Johnny Birke filed a complaint Aug. 27 against seven talk show hosts of KRLA-AM (870), Salem Communications Corporation and its owner Edward Atsinger III, alleging that they use the public airwaves to push Republican beliefs. David and Johnny Birke would not say whether they were related, citing attorney-client privilege.

I didn't know that Salem had a PAC:

The radio station, its media company and the company’s Political Action Committee have helped fund the Republican Party by raising money for its party-affiliated candidates and officials, according to the complaint.
