'Patriot Radio' leaves Radio Moscow in halfpenny place

This blog has on previous occasions referred to the right-wing US radio station 'Patriot Radio'.

It is based in Phoenix, Arizona and some of the programmes are syndicated to other US stations.

It spends most of its time and energy attacking President Barack Obama. It blatantly and vulgarily supports the GOP.

Its presenters sneer and ridicule everything that is not right-wing. It is a loud supporter of the NRA and has criticised President Obama for his latest attempt to change the gun laws. One presenter last week jeerd at the president on how he speaks. Another presenter accused him of lying in his State of the Union address.

It opposes the current agreement with Iran.

When one thinks of 'Patriot Radio' the words vile and evil come to mind. In terms of blatant propaganda it leaves in the shade anything the former Soviet Union or the GDR ever tried to do.

This station is opposed to abortion and same sex marriage.
