Clear Channel neglects its emergency system, disaster strikes, people die. Pentagon Pundits profit from the same war they promote. Fox News gets a court ruling that news does not have to be true. Rush Limbaugh incites violence, and Hate Radio rules.

Media Policy is killing people in this country. Literally. And it is killing our democracy, too. Corporate financed lawmakers have stacked the media policy deck against We the People.
