Air America went on the air in early 2004, to proivde liberal talk, and to try to defeat Bush in the 2004 election.
Liberal talk radio never took off. I wonder why?
Because they are low life “Democrat” traitors to the American Republic!!! End of story!!!
It does exist...on NPR, of course. But not really commercially! (In fact in Boston a centrist/left duo, Eagan and Braude, were quickly scooped up by NPR affiliate WGBH after FM talker WTKK changed to rap)
Commercial liberal talk radio...? Who would want to advertise?
“So these big corporations like Walmart and the oil companies are just EVIL! OK, we’ll be right back after this..public service announcement...”
A guy PAID to have libtalk on AM 1510 Boston but it flopped. (Now the station, currently doing sports, will air ‘libertarian-lifestyle’ shows like Glenn Beck, Dr K, etc.
starting June 1)
I still remember how Clear Channel started prog talk on AM 1200 and 1430 in Boston, Oct of ‘04, and Al Franken set up to do shows in Boston the week of the election. It was going to be a glorious tribute to President-elect Kerry! Ha, did not happen, and for several days afterwards Franken and company sounded depressed and sleep deprived, when not ranting about another ‘stolen election’..)
“Liberal talk radio never took off. I wonder why?”
Because the left totally owns the culture. Conservatives need the refuge of talk radio because that’s all we have. Liberals just have to turn on the TV and every news program, every sitcom, every drama, every every spews forth, confirms, embraces, encourages, perpetuates the leftist dogma. Liberal talk radio is a redundant waste of time.
