560, 1260, 1340 AM, 93.3 and 104.1 FM. Those are just the ones I can think of. The market is so saturated that one of these has had to shift to a little bit of local non-political programming to fill the schedule. Then there are also plenty of conservative talk stations in surrounding communities. The left end of the FM and some of the AM locally is also full of Christian stations that are little more than conservative propaganda. About the closest we come to anything liberal is the NPR affiliate.
