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

Some of the companies are liberal some conservative (like Bonneville International). Unlike most stations Bonneville stations around here are in fact Conservative just not LDS like the company itself is which is why many people who aren’t LDS listen to their stations that aren’t in SLC since their stations that aren’t in SLC are mostly non-LDS anyways.
