Left Tries to End Conservative Talk Radio
Posted by: Matt Lewis at 12:24 PM

The Left is really coming after talk radio.  Clearly, they are threatend by it.  They have discovered that liberal talk radio simply doesn't have an audience, so their only alternative is to shut down conservative talk radio...

INSTEAD OF COMPLAINING
Why don't liberals simply start listening and supporting liberal talk radio hosts instead of just complaining about the conservative domination of the industry? If you listen and support liberal talk radio, the ratings will go up.

The only reason conservatives completely annihilate liberals in talk radio is because liberals are not listening. Liberals are actually hurting themselves in this case. Credit needs to be given to liberal talk radio hosts. They know it's tough. But no credit should be given at all to the liberals who complain about conservative talk radio yet don't support liberal talk radio.

You are your own worst enemy.

Good
Talk radio has been the scourge of conservativism since Limbaugh went on the air.

It's all fakery. The Republican controlled government between 2000 & 2006 will go down in history has one of the biggest laughing stocks, and least respectable governments ever.

EVERY TIME SOMEONE TUNES INTO A RADIO
station, and listens, it is a vote for them to stay in business....Nobody listens to radio that they hate, just for grins and giggles. Conservatism is a broad idiology of two primary groups.(Paleoconservatives and Neoconservatives)The LIBERALS have their own divisions in the ranks as well.......As GABBY pointed out, conservative radio is now dominated by "Neocons", and I have to wonder how well a "Paleocon" would do on the radio, or would the "listener" not even be able to recognize the "Old Boy Conservatism" of Barry Goldwater and Ronald Reagan?.........Inquiring minds want to know?

Broken Link
And personally I find it kinda ridiculous when people link to an article by a single blogger and then classify it as the "Left" wanting something.

I don't think you would consider your opinion to be generalized to the entire "Right".

I find it to be an overly defensive and inflammatory method of writing.
