Talk radio is conservative where I live, and I am not aware of talk radio nation wide.

You're basing the political "bias" of social media platforms based upon donations? Are you kidding me? Look at the actual content. It's 100% dominated by right-wing conspiracy B.S. and misinformation. I watch YouTube all the time but I can't escape all the right-wing garbage.

Weird...when I have been on some those platforms, and I didn't see any right-wing conspiracy b.s....saw a lot of wrestling clips, police videos, animal videos, and...well let's just say videos of beautiful "scenery".  But you saying it's 100% dominated by right-wing conspiracy B.S. and misinformation isn't totally made up.... 🙄

And yes, talk radio EVERYWHERE is dominated by the right. I live in Madison and it's still dominated by the 'wingers. 

Why isn't there a local liberal voice in Madison?

Exactly...I thought Madison was an uber liberal city?

Good grief, if talking Madison WI they were liberal in the 80s before liberal was a thing.  They were the most liberal Big 10 campus.

Looking in the wrong place.

Flip over to FM and you can hear the liberal songs and DJ discussion.

Youtube has been pushing Kamala Harris ads requesting money from me.  Ick.

It's an advertisement.  She's paying for it to be shown.
