Liberal Talk Radio Dead In LA; Replaced By Rush And Sean
Breitbart ^ | dec. 6, 2013 | Larry O'Connor

Posted on 12/06/2013 6:24:11 AM PST by PROCON

Clear Channel announced Thursday that progressive talker KTLK "Diverse LA" will flip format to an all-conservative line-up and will be re-branded "Patriot 1150." KTLK's foundering liberal line-up had included Stephanie Miller, Randi Rhodes, and Bill Press. KTLK's ratings have been anemic, averaging 0.2 in the 6+ demographic over the past six months. In November, the liberal line-up registered #41 in the crowded LA market. In comparison, conservative KFI finished in the top 10 with a 3.4 in the same demo

Google a dude named Piolin if you want to know what the majority of the HIU want to listen to. But even that pendejo went too far by sexually harassing his male staff and has been replaced by a show called El Bueno, la Mala y el Feo’ (The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly). I think he still has his show on Sirius XM. He is claiming, basically, “The bitch set me up.”

“Liberals get their opinions not from listening to the news and forming an opinion from what they have heard, but from conversations with their liberal friends which is why all liberals repeat the exact same talking point without specifics as to how they formed that opinion.

The liberal opinion is pretty much the thought process of someone that has created a talking point for other liberals to repeat as if it’s their own thought process.”

Very accurate description of the situation. That’s why liberals remind one so much of Parrots, because liberals mindlessly parrot what they’ve heard other mindless parrots parroting other mindless parrots. Basically, liberals live in a Parrot echo chamber insulted from facts, reasoning and reality.

Watch how many time the liberal news media runs with a completely phony news story about the right, then they run a correction when called out, but the left keeps repeating the phony story as if it’s true.

A 50,000 watt station drawing a 0.2?

Notice how when you question a liberal on their carefully crafted talking point, they can’t back up their talking point with any type of thought process how they reached that opinion, so they will immediately go into personal attack and claim you are a_______________(fill in the blank) for not having the same opinion.

I had the misfortune of tuning across Stephanie Miller’s TV show on the very night she had been canceled. She spent the entire final episode of her show raging in an onscreen tirade, trashing all of her bosses for being morons.

Her guest was actor Fyvush Finkel. Poor old guy just sat there on the couch dumbfounded as she spewed venom.

She was never invited back to do TV obviously.

It’s hard to stay emotionality charged for a whole hour.

Have you listened to Mark Levine? My daughter asked me once, "Why is that guy so mad every day for so long?" LOL

I told her, "So I don't have to be. That's why."

The Facebook page for KTLK is predictable; “you are dead to me in January”; “knuckle dragging conservatives” etc. I just posted the diff. in ratings between KFI and KTLK (the latter has ratings lower than whale excrement); thus the change.

Somebody who cares about the revenue side of the business, and is obviously an adult, decided that their product was not drawing enough customers for advertising revenue to pay the light bill. I suspect they then learned that by switching products, they had a better chance to make a profit. Profitable investors are happy investors. They used to call this free market capitalism. But none of the commentators you speak of would know anything about that subject. LOL

Those comments make me feel so..... Christmassy. It’s like drinking adult eggnog, while sitting by the fire and listening to Martina McBride sing Oh Holy Night.

As I’ve said before:
“So big corporations like Walmart are EVIL! So is Big Oil!
Well, we’ll be right back here on Air America after this...
uh, public service announcement...”

(No wonder they don’t want to advertise. Also Big Government through taxes makes more money per gallon than Big Oil does...)

I have heard Bill Press when he was on KFI and always thought of him as an arrogant democrat party line member. I can get 1150 on AM pretty good so it will easy to get Rush from 640 KFI where he is on now.

KFI has Bill Handell in the mornings and this guy is kinda like Chris Mathews. He knows and will say the democrats are wrong but he always will support their policies in the end. He will start off saying lower taxes are good but by the end of the segment will back the high tax plan of Sacramento or Washington. BTW he also talks about his years of drug use so I guess that is a clue. Your brain has to be fried to be a democrat.

The liberals whine about not having their own liberal equivalent to talk radio. You would have thought they would have supported this line up(in a liberal market no less) to give it ratings and prove to conservatives that liberal talk radio can work. Nope.

When does Nancy Pelosi dig out her Fairness Doctrine? If not enough people want to listen to liberal talk radio, then by golly she’ll make them.

Google the question. There are several sites which bear me out.
I learned about it from a cousin of mine whose mother steered the family to it. She's passed now and cousin became Catholic.

I became interested in Mormonism years ago, not because I was considering joining just because I was curious. I bought several books on it and also the book of Mormon and I was kind of shocked at the things I read.

The most shocking thing to me was that the Mormons consider Satan as the brother of Jesus. What kind of nonsense if that?
