If Howard Stern ever makes it to #1. God should end the world.

"Limbaugh is better now then he has ever been.....Like fine Scotch, he gets better over time."

I agree, but Rush has always been good, since I found him by accident in the summer when the bent one was first running for president.

Hannity has a lot of famous guest, but he is a bit too plastic for me.
Rush is the true original.

[Echo Talon]

and Dr. Laura Schlessinger with more than 7.75

Does anyone know why Michael Medved has been bumped for Dr. Laura on XM Radio's "America Right"? Medved is WAYY better than Dr. Laura! Why is Dr. Laura on a political station like America Right? XM put Medved back on!

"Who's Franken?"

Frankensteen?

Here's a pretty good ref for all the talkies.

I just found Bill Bennet on the radio in my market. Definitely a cut above the rest.

On the same station I found Bennet, I get to listen to Medved instead of Hannity. Personally, I can no longer listen to Hannity. He has become a caricature of himself in the last year or so.

[Paladin2]

BOR IS bigger on TV.

Bennett deserves to move up - a fine reasonable and very bright commentator on our times.

I don't respect a man losing $8 million on the slot machines.

Hannity and Savage are virtually unlistenable (combination of boring RNC fax-of-the-day, general ignorance, dead-obvious commentary, lame repetitive topics and lack of debating skills), so everyone below them has to be really bad - do they even speak English?

Bill Bennet is great! Unfortunately, in my area, he's on hor one hour at 5 a.m. O'Reilly holds the fort from 6-8 in the moring. I like Laura Ingraham, too.

[tazannie]

i heard that, but could'nt catch most of the words. and I tried really hard.

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

Pretty good. Submit it to some sites like NRO.

[indcons]

This is what Savage's web site says about O'Reilly:

"NO SPIN(e) ZONE"

The Leprecon Licks The Gutter Rat's Undies To Boost Sagging

Ratings, Still Masquerades as "Conservative."

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

I agree. The Savage numbers kind of surprise me. The GOP should definitely be paying attention.

[Nexus6]

The only reason I listen to Hannity anymore is because he's "on" when I'm getting out of work. In terms of pure entertainment though, I think Savage offers the best product by far.

[BradyLS]

Hey! Where's Lars Larson? He deserves more love than Franken...

[indcons]

"I just found Bill Bennet on the radio in my market."

Don't bother about his lectures on personal morals though ;)

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

That's nothin'. Glen Beck was bumped here in Northern Ohio, and replaced by Jerry Springer!

He tore up Hannity on this story and it was very believable.

[Lakeshark]

Savage is an embarrasment. I think he hopes to deliver the Presidency for Hillary.......and judging from the amount people who like him, he might succeed.

Scary guy.

[latina4dubya]

The Cultural Conventional Wisdom always stated he had between 15-20 million listeners

i thought that was Rush "sarcastically" padding his numbers the way the liberal media pads the numbers for crowd turnout for events such as the "Million Man March." doesn't he say it sort of tongue-in-cheek?
