[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

The thing about American freedom is that its freedom of the powerful over everyone else.

Oh, there’s no more AM radio to broadcast right wing news? Force it in all cars. Customers don’t deserve the freedom to choose.

Yet they call themselves the free world.

What the fuck kinda comment is this? Want freedom to choose? Don’t flip on the AM radio then. That is literally more freedom than not having the option.

AM radio has longer reach than FM and is how emergency information for interstate highway travel is communicated. Keeping it is a good thing.
