If a liberal talks and no one is there to hear it, did they even say it?

Name 'em. Out on the west coast, they are all crappy little local or regional stations, 5kw max. They've even lost "WLIB". Now that's got to hurt; in the New York market, Liberal nirvana, even WLIB drops them? Bwaaa ha ha ha ha! :lol: #55: “Actually, AAR is on 86 stations currently and many of them are 50,000 watt Clear Channel outlets.”

Conservative Talk Radio did get started with financial backers, rich ones at that. But then so did AAR. The difference? Ratings. Assuming Flowerchild is correct on the assumption there's a need for 'balance' (and compared to ABC, CBS, NBC, NPR, CNN, NYT, et al that's a stretch), it either comes down to lack of air talent <strong>OR</strong> lack of anyone wanting to listen to the message. So take your pick: all this time and they can't attract enough good talent to sustain their message, or no message is being put out that people want to hear. It's one or the other.

Too bad you can't debate and you spew talking points mindlessly. AAR just got thrown out in Atlanta and will be off the air by August in NYC. AAR had to scam the Gloria Wise Boys & Girl's club for hundreds of thousands of dollars. AAR didn't pay the money back so Gloria Wise closed, leaving the kids on the street. Yeah, tell us more lies about AAR otherwise known as ScareAmerica. I've got more, and the the Radio Equalizer airs AAR's dirty laundry daily. The truth is out there, much to AAR's hate. 55, Nice name calling, flower. Too bad you can’t debate and you spew talking points mindlessly.

I guess it's because they know that right wing radio started out with alot of help from rich backers and took a while to take hold. They fear that liberal talk is being born the same route. Actually, AAR is on 86 stations currently and many of them are 50,000 watt Clear Channel outlets. I don't like alot of their A-List hosts but obviously their is a need for political balance on the airwaves. The best AAR programming is on the lesser-known shows. What other network would air the creative, revolutionary drug-induced hipster comedy of Marc Maron? What other network would carry the genius brain that is housed in Thom Hartmann's body? Or have the guts to air the hate-spewing Mike Malloy. Like them or not, they sell to a growing market that no one else serves right now. Man, I never realized how scared repugs are of AAR.

Bernard Goldberg has his own serious case of the bias:

“In “100 People Who Are Screwing Up America”, Goldberg ranks President Jimmy Carter (number 6) above the Unknown American Terrorist (number 23).”

My question to Bernard and to you “liberal bias” alarmists is: Why do you see the splinter that is in your brother’s eye, but don’t consider the log that is in your own eye?
