I keep meaning to mention this, but it keeps slipping my mind.

One of NYC’s biggest news stations, 1010 WINS, has accepted a huge ad buy from NewsMax. At least twice an hour, listeners are being told that ‘politicians in Washington are plotting to take away your Social Security benefits’ in one ad and pitched to buy the ‘Obamacare Survival Guide’ book in the other. The first ad tells about how SS recipients have seen benefits rise by some small amount, while ‘food stamp recipients have seen their benefits rise over 30% during the Obama administration,’ while the latter threatens ‘massive fines and possible loss of your insurance!’

Fookin’ depressing. I’ve lost quite a bit of respect for WINS, but I guess they figure NewsMax’s money is a green as anyone else’s.
