Coming soon to a radio station near you…

Presidential propaganda!

GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital, a private equity firm, has just bought Clear Channel, the #1 radio station operator in America. They bought it in conjunction with Thomas H. Lee Partners, which is “involved in a lot of other media properties.”

Chris Bowers: “To prepare for their 2008 runs, most potential candidates stock up on staff, a Leadership PAC, and support from party leaders, advocacy organizations, and grassroots groups. Mitt Romney buys a media empire.“

Shakes: I can’t believe this shit is legal.
