That changes the mandate of Armed forces radio how? It's not satellite radio we are talking about here they call it Armed forces radio for a reason.

Get past the name on the link and read the story - it's pretty fair.

As a coworker of mine cleverly observed just now, "The way to get a liberal to define themselves as left-wing is to ask them for the names of five members of the radical right and then ask them to just as quickly name five members of the radical left.
When a person identifies with one extreme or the other they will fail to identify their own extremism.
That said, Scape, please name five people you consider to be radical left?

As a corrollary to Bart's excellent observation, most people, in attributing bias to the media, fail to account for their own bias.
There is no such thing as a perfectly objective media report, and there is no such thing as a perfectly objective viewer.

Because that's who they serve, not who they represent.
Otherwise it would be DoD radio.
I don't think they even broadcast much beyond their bases. (I seem to recall they re-broadcast on short range transmitters... )

Did you edit your post? I didn't see it last time. Anyway, intriguing question. Hard core leftist would be Louis Farrakhan, Malcolm X, Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale.
On the right that would be Vilim Zlomislic(Don Andrews), Jean-Marie Le Pen, Udo Voigt, Meir Kahane and Noam Federman.
