    Have you been living under a rock?

    What you’re describing is simply the Big Tobacco playbook from the 1950s being adapted into modern communications methods. If we didn’t have internet media, I guarantee you we’d still be seeing pandemic misinformation on AM radio and climate change lies on news networks funded by Shell and BP.

        I dunno, around here we only use AM radio as an emergency source of information for weather and road hazards.

        I’ve never heard a political nutjob advertising any AM radio station. Only ads I see for AM radio is on the side of the highway in case of emergencies.
