You mean, moreso than making money?
Implying that there's only one possible way to do that and that ideological and political concerns never ever influence anyone in big business? Get real.
This isn't even necessarily political. Clear Channel and Infinity own so many radio stations (thanks to a generation of governments of all political persuasions permitting an ever greater concentration of media outlets in ever fewer hands) that there are fewer and fewer independents left. Clear Channel has a habit of imposing a bland uniformity on its stations. Whether you're a liberal or a conservative, this is not a good thing. The wheel CAN turn, after all, and maybe 20 years from now right-wingers will be the ones feeling shut out. It would be better if everyone had a level playing field all the time.
