is there a list of clearchannel stations someplace?

i auume nowadays every channel is clearchannel, but want to see if i will still get stern tom.

Put your city in here
right on! I listen to none of their stations right now, and will avoid them.
I don't like nor listen to Stern, but censorship sucks.

That listing is very abbreviated compared to what stations are really clear channel in my area. I don't know if it's a old list or just inaccurate.

Since you brought them up, read Anthony's take on all the happenings here.

Interesting read. I was never an O and A fan, but this is a well-reasoned and well-informed read on the whole situation.

Parents cannot be on top of their children 24/7 and control what they listen to and watch, nor should they. The public airwaves have a right to be free of material that people find objectionable, just like public TV.
What some people don't realize is that it's the PUBLIC airwaves, and yes, your three year old kid can tune in and hear some stuff no three year old should hear. People should not have to limit their children's exposure to the radio. Nobody cares what you listen to on satellite because it's not PUBLIC airwaves.
It's not anyone imposing their values on you, it's exactly the opposite in my view. It's these kind of hosts imposing their LACK of values onto the public airwaves.

These comments really scare me.

If you leave your three year old in reach of a stereo unattended, and he knows how to tune into the Howard Stern show, then you have more problems than objectionable material on the radio. Like your ability to parent.
And yes you do need to be on top of your children 24/7. It's your responsibility to watch them.

80% of public radio and television has objectionable material to a 3 year old.
I don't care if it's free or paid for, that's a weak arguement.
Ever been to a library?
