2. Conservative radio dominates in the Twin Cities
Minneapolis and St Paul are about the blueest cities you'll find.

I think it's an overall, nationwide dominance due to the fact that they've been building their hate radio up for almost 20 years while Dems have only started a few years ago in an established manner.
I'm sure that the consolidation of all the radio stations to 3 or 4 companies run by right wingers doesn't help much either.

3. Has more to do with Clearchannel than anything
Those Bush suckholes own 8 radiostations in every market what do you expect?

I'm shocked they even syndicated Air America.
