Want to know what is going on in the world both inside and outside the
local community? Don't be a cheapskate and buy a newspaper. The radio
hosts you mentioned aren't news reporters, they're commentators. So
you won't get the latest breaking news from them. Want unbiased news?
Try (tic) *NPR or PBS. If have this need for radio, get satellite
radio. Your choices are endless. You're online, discover all the web
sites available. You are only limited by yourself.


You have so many choices where to get your news, your bitching and
moaning is rather comical.


The issue is the commons and whether one point of view dominates the
public airwaves to the detriment of others. *Many people listen to
Limpballs by default, as he is on the only station they can pick up at
work, etc. *How much right-wing talk is available in Dallas? *How much
progressive?


What 'market' for Left-Wing-a-Ding-a-Ling
Talk Radio is their in Dallas, TX to begin
with ? ? ? : That NPR {PBS} do not satisfy
and fill the need of Liberal Radio Listeners ?

* "Air-America" Failed because they were trying
to compete with for Left-Wing {Liberal} Radio
Listeners who were already NPR {PBS} Radio
Listeners and very Loyal to the NPR {PBS}
Brand.

* Nation-Wide the NPR {PBS} Brand has over
2400 Radio Stations; while Limbaugh and Hannity
can only manage to get on about 500 Radio
Stations : That Better Than 4-to-1 in the the
NPR {PBS} Brand's favor.

* 23 Texas NPR Member Radio Stations

That a pretty good 'network' to counter-balance
Limbaugh, Hannity, O'Reilly, Beck, etc and paid
for by my Tax Dollars.

* For that matter why aren't my Tax Dollars
helping to support true fairness on the Radio
and requiring NPR [PBS] to carry 33% of it's
Programming to reflect the Conservative Voice
since they are 100% Left-Wing {Liberal} with
some Moderates to do the "Me Too" act with
them in the name of so-called 'liberal' truth.
