Talk about spin. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/ar...TICLE_ID=44014 Bush was implied. A spoiled child is telling us our Social Security isn't safe anymore, so he is going to fix it for us. Well, here's your answer, you ungrateful whelp: [audio sound of four gunshots being fired.] Just try it, you little *******. [audio of gun being cocked]." Rhodes has about as much class as the Democrats did last night during the SOTU. Talk about spoiled brats. |

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. Touche! ![]() hosts, AM radio would have DIED an unholy death 20 years ago. All these extremist ranting far right talk show hosts have kept AM radio in the US from utter extinction. They're literally its bread and butter. The only other significant formats on AM are evangelical preaching and Spanish language formats meant for Mexicans who may not have cars with FM radios, or who may not be familiar with FM (FM's limited distance makes it impractical outside of major cities, and Latin America has a large amount of sparsely populated jungle and desert). In major cities AM also provides a home for other languages such as Asian tongues where there is a demand for native language programming but the community doesn't have a lot of money. AM provides cheap airtime. Outside of a) right wing ranters b) preachers and c) foreign languages there is NOTHING on AM. All the music is on FM, and satellite radio is just beginning to cut into FM listenership. So basically, if you buy an old radio on Ebay and it doesn't have FM and you need to test it out the right wing provides a way to do that. ![]() |

If NMPR is so successful, why is it that they need government funding for 100% of their operation? Contrast that to conservative talk radio, which barely has enough time to fit in all the interested advertisers. -- If John McCain gets the 2008 Republican Presidential nomination, my vote for President will be a write-in for Jiang Zemin. |
