5. it doesn't say anything about financing from same source
This is simply saying that XM radio is also picking up the RW radio network. I don't think the funding is the same. XM carries all kinds of radio stations.

8. "13 Black, dammit, 13 Black"
I already know what Bennett will say. It sounds like a broken record after a while.

4. Why do they need satellite radio?
You can't turn on an AM radio anywhere, any hour in America without hearing one of the above. For free.

11. How much does that XM radio stuff cost?
If it's no too much would it be cost effective to reduce my monthly donations to liberal groups to allow myself this luxury?

13. about 10 dollars monthly
and the actual sattelite radio stuff depends on which one you get. do you want one only for the car ? or for home use also ? i'm planning on getting one i can use in the car and anywhere else and that would cost more than if i just got one for the car. if you get one only for the car than maybe you can buy one for around a 100 dollars or less. but if you want to use other places also it could come out to 300, maybe a little less. and of course the monthly subscription is about 10 dollars. i think you can prepay a full year in one payment and get a discount.

Sinister right wing media cabal Clear Channel is a major stockholder in XM.
