[US] House passes bill requiring AM radio in all new cars sold nationwide
Introduced by Rep. Frank Pallone Jr. (D-NJ) in response to automakers removing AM radio from some new vehicles. My man Pallone gets his emergency scoreboard alerts from 66 WFAN too

On one hand, fuck AM radio. All the worst right wing talk shows are there.
On the other, in the event of a crisis AM radio just keeps on trucking.

How do we listen to am radio on our phones?

Man that’s one thing they should have never taken from phones, AM/FM radio. So now you can’t just tune to a station, you gotta download their fucking app that’s filled with extra ads.

Does the app require internet? If there’s a catastrophe, the first thing to go out is internet and phone reception because of high demand.
