Default Why is 'Talk Radio' So Conservative?

All of the talk radio shows around here are conservative.

Liberal mainstream media is dedicated to abortion, atheism, and sodomy.
This results in a large audience of conservatives who want an alternative.
Conservative talk radio fills that need while the liberals are content
with the mass media fare and don't need an alternative such as Air America.


Why is talk radio so conservative you ask?

Well, maybe the conservatives are trying to play catchup with their
wildly successful liberal competition on NPR. Conservatives have been
unable to create a single network that can provide the quality of
programming and informative news that is available on NPR. Indeed the
polished presentation skills of NPR talk show hosts far outshines the
usual strident delivery of most conservative talk show personalities.
Consequently conservatives have decided to flood the AM airwaves with
ranting personalities like Rush Limbaugh spouting extremist gibberish
for hours on end.
