Why is 'Talk Radio' So Conservative?

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. From private communication with a friend in the radio business; In the Dallas-Fort Worth market, right wing talk is carried on WBAP-820 (50,000 watts), KRLD-1080 (50,000 watts), KSKY-660 (20,000 watts), and KLIF-570 (5000 watts and simulcast on 1700 with 10,000 watts) In addition, there are Christian talk stations with the same "talking points" on the FM dial at 90.9, 91.7 and 100.7, all with 100,000 watts each. Along comes Air America on KXEB-910, 1000 watts, transmitter about 30 miles north of Dallas... and here, and in the newspaper letters to the editor, and the local programs on talk radio, and the discussion newsgroups, and the local sections of radio-info.com: Air America should be shut down for treason in time of war Al Franken wants Bush assassinated Al Franken stole money from the Boys Club Al Franken is a filthy jew Air America is not wanted or needed Air America has no listeners Air America has no advertisers Air America bounces checks Air America has worse ratings than the brokered Pakistani love ballad format it replaced in some city... In the Dallas market, the Air America station has less than 1% of the transmitter power of the other AM stations mentioned above. Yet in a city which voted for Kerry in 2004, the right wing doesn't seem happy unless they control 100% of the discussion. And they will resort to lies to destroy any deviance from the "party line." AAR is doing fine, adding a couple stations a month, and now on Armed Forces Radio Network for an hour a day and a dedicated XM channel. In NYC, at the rate AAR listenship (WLIB) is growing and and Rush's (WABC) is shrinking, the curve will cross in 5 quarters. -- a d y k e s @ p a n i x . c o m Don't blame me. I voted for Gore. |

Nah... that's what Liberal Democrats do. Good luck in the upcoming elections, even the Liberal pundits are bemoaning the party's chances. Die Liberalism, die. dxAce Michigan USA |
