Despite McCain’s victories in two states(and ignoring his losses in Iowa, Wyoming, Michigan, and Nevada), even in the states he won about 2/3 of the voters, and an even higher percentage of REPUBLICAN VOTERS wanted someone else. How you spin that into a repudation of talk radio is beyond me.
Not only that - they can say all they want that TalkRadio’s power is diminishing all they want - it isn’t as if those of us who listen to Rush, Hannity, the Great One, are going to suddenly stop.
The funny thing is the numbers may very well go down for “live” listening - podcasting is becoming more and more popular - personally, I download Rush and Levin and listen to them when I get home - I can’t get AM radio at my office and Levin doesn’t come on in the S.F. Bay Area until 8:00 p.m., when the transmitter powers down.
OT question - I have XM in my car and it brings the AM in clear as a bell, even when it doesn’t come in at my house. If I get a home player for my XM, will it still pull in a great AM signal?
Exactly.
Since when do we accept LeftMedia PropagandaPolls and piddly primary results as reliable indicators as to how the elctorate at large is going to vote?
