(7,263 posts)We all rail against Fox Entertainment, but RW Hate radio has it's roots in the crazy evangelical radio stations that sprang up everywhere in the 20th Century.
In turn Hate Radio was used by racist Movement Conservatives, Koch & Bush Family Money, a subverted NRA to raise money and supply weapons, and shared the willingness (ignorance is NOT a defence) of evangelical sects and ministries such as the Billy Graham Crusade in the early 1960's to prostrate themselves before the alter of greed and enable the use of abortion and birth control controversies as wedge issues.
Not to mention that early RW and 'christian' radio jocks mobilized hatred using the right of black people to sit where they choose on a bus or at a lunch counter to revitalize ole Jim Crow.
