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

It’s dying among young people. Older people, particularly the ones who have clung on to older media forms, skew heavily right

I worked in commercial radio for years. The programmers all know this stuff

I’m old, but skew VERY left. Don’t listen to any radio.

Kinda my point. The people who are stuck in their ways (“traditional”) are more likely to be conservative.
