Liberal talk radio cannot survive
because talk radio involves interaction.

Notice that liberals never debate based on the merits of the issue at hand,
but always on the immorality of opposition to their “good ideas”.

I used to TRY to listen to AirHead America with the mean drunk Al Frankin. It was intolerable. It wasn't engaging, or an exchange of ideas, it was all preaching and moralizing. If by chance a conservative caller tried to get on , he was ridiculed. Not a give and take at all. Needless to say I could only listen for about 5 minutes at a clip.

that’s true, but beyond the “can’t survive interaction” dynamic, radio is an intellectual pursuit, and video (tv, film, etc) is an emotional activity. As such, liberalism fails the auditory sensory environment.

That may be partly true. But the interaction on talk radio is pretty controlled. The real challenge for liberal talk radio is that the talk radio market is largely made up of the working middle class of America. It is the group that drives to work and actually does work during the day. It is an intellectual group that is involved in the governance of our nation. They are smart and they vote.

The dialogue and logic confounds most LIVs and liberals. they are not interested because they are not remotely aware of the issues that are discussed for the most part. Discussion about what politicians are doing or what are government is doing "for" us is boring and unfamiliar to the nitwit masses.
