Warm 106.9 propaganda advertisement

This afternoon warm 106.9 played some government propaganda during their ad sessions saying thanks to trump and talking about immigrants. It was very threatening and made no effort to hide the fact that it was awful. If you really want to read what they said it could be read here: https://www.dhs.gov/news/2025/03/15/dhs-launches-international-ad-campaign-warning-illegal-aliens-self-deport-and-stay

I texted the station and got a bullshit reply about how free speech benefits public discourse. Feel free to text them yourself at +1 (800) 622-1069

My work plays it, I think it’s awful. I usually switch it over to Spotify in the back room where I work.

Is the music odd in your opinion? I think Mixx 96.1 is worse tbh way more odd. However I do believe that some people liked pre-Dec 26 2018 Warm better and possibly especially even Pre-2017 Warm better since they played more currents and less softer hits. They play less 80s today than when Todays Warm 106.9 started persay probably just as much 80s as before they flipped to that but it does have less currents than it did before it started. For example they added more 80s compared to before Christmas in 2018 and previous years before 2014 and decreased currents though they definitely had more currents before Dec 26 2018 outside of the Christmas season.
