The choices of radio formats in most cities have dwindled to but a few: Hip Hop Oldies Country (not in many east coast cities) Sports/talk Rock Gone from almost all venues are classical, opera, jazz, easy listening and MOR. Tell us again how we have more choices than ever.. perhaps we have more choices of where to listen to Rush Limbaugh and George Noory.. more places to listen to Fitty Cent.. more places to listen to the same tired old 50 or so oldies tracks on the average oldies playlists.. but real CHOICE.. nope. |

even david brooks is finding out how perverted the republicans are ![]() thigh’ for a ‘whole’ dinner party:i wonder which family values conservative that was? http://thinkprogress.org/2009/07/10/...senator-thigh/ David Brooks: A Republican senator put ‘his hand on my inner thigh’ for a ‘whole’ dinner party. Earlier this week, New York Times columnist David Brooks wrote about how “the dignity code” has been “completely obliterated” in Washington, DC. Discussing the concept on MSNBC today, Brooks recalled how he “sat next to a Republican senator once at dinner and he had his hand on my inner thigh the whole time”: BROOKS: You know, all three of us spend a lot of time covering politicians and I don’t know about you guys, but in my view, they’re all emotional freaks of one sort or another. They’re guaranteed to invade your personal space, touch you. I sat next to a Republican senator once at dinner and he had his hand on my inner thigh the whole time. I was like, ehh, get me out of here. HARWOOD: What? BROOKS: I can only imagine what happens to you guys. O’DONNELL: Sorry, who was that? BROOKS: I’m not telling you, I’m not telling you. Brooks said that he has “spoken to a lot of young women who are Senate staffers and they’ll have these middle age guys who are sort of in the middle of a mid-life crisis. Emotionally needy, they don’t know how to do it and sort of like these St. Bernards drooling everywhere.” Watch it: When O’Donnell asked if he had “a couple drinks at lunch,” Brooks said that he was just “trying not to be too dignified and stuffy.” Transcript: O’DONNELL: What, what’s happened? BROOKS: You know, all three of us spend a lot of time covering politicians and I don’t know about you guys, but in my view, they’re all emotional freaks of one sort or another. They’re guaranteed to invade your personal space, touch you. I sat next to a Republican senator once at dinner and he had his hand on my inner thigh the whole time. I was like, ehh, get me out of here. HARWOOD: What? BROOKS: I can only imagine what happens to you guys. O’DONNELL: Sorry, who was that? BROOKS: I’m not telling you, I’m not telling you. But so, a lot of them spend so much time needing people’s love and yet they are shooting upwards their whole life, they’re not that great in normal human relationships. And so, they’re like freaks, they don’t know how to, they’re lonely. They reach out. I’ve spoken to a lot of young women who are Senate staffers and they’ll have these middle age guys who are sort of in the middle of a mid-life crisis. Emotionally needy, they don’t know how to do it and sort of like these St. Bernards drooling everywhere. And you find a lot of this happens in mid-life and among very powerful people who are extremely lonely. O’DONNELL: Can I ask one other question David? Do you think, what about female or women politicians? Are they dignified and are there examples of when they have not? Or does it tend to be the men who less dignified? BROOKS: Yeah, I think that’s mostly a matter of genetics. I do think that…I do think there’s loneliness. O’DONNELL: That was just a softball, David, and you really hit it very well. BROOKS: Yeah, I wish I could think of sort of St. Bernards, sloppy women who are licking their aides, but but no, I can’t think of any. HARWOOD: I’m not going there. O’DONNELL: Did you have a couple drinks at lunch, David? I mean, this is clearly. BROOKS: No, you’ve hit me…I’m trying not to be too dignified and stuffy. O’DONNELL: Well, David Brooks as always, thank you very much. That was a lot of fun. You may not have gotten best column of the week, but you got best appearance of the week, certainly. |

The people vote by listening to radio stations. Station generate revenue based on their number of listeners (like a political candidate in a democratic process). Stations that can not draw enough listeners either close or change formats (like a political candidate in a democratic process). How does blowing smoke up peoples' asses improve the government? Lowest Common Denominator is no way to run a country. Media is supposed to inform, as well as entertain. Broadcast media is a finite natural resource and it use should serve the common good, even if that reduces someone's bottom line. Journalism is about speaking truth to power on behalf of the masses; we can't force newspapers or cable to be fair but we can make the broadcasters serve the people what they need to, but may not necessarily want to, hear. |

Journalism is about speaking truth to power on behalf of the masses; we can't force newspapers or cable to be fair but Space to sell News papers is finite, we need to insure that we have equal Conservative and Liberal Paper sales. we can make the broadcasters serve the people what they need to, but may not necessarily want to, hear. We can force equal stories in each Newspaper, force them to hire equal numbers of Right and Left reporters. |
