I used the term "relatively poor" in comparison to the NAB that would have a lot more lobbying money. -- I support the right to keep and arm bears. |

| Yes, but how well are many of those radio and television owners doing? Radio companies don't really have much money to throw around (Clear Channel, the largest radio broadcaster, gets as much money from its billboard division as it does from radio advertising), and over-the-air TV broadcasters are getting more and more squeezed too- perhaps the big conglomerates, Disney, CBS Corp, and GE (I assume since they have owned and operated stations they're members) have the money to throw around to the NAB, but most of those several thousand? |
