"Is there an audience for liberal talk? Sure. Just take a look at that notorious 2000 campaign map, a schizophrenic blotch of red and blue Americans. At any given moment, half the citizenry detests George Bush, an "illegitimate" president who "stole the election." The same people zealously hold Bush personally responsible for war, poverty, pestilence, famine, spotty cellphone reception, and the common cold. Here's your audience!......But take another look at that map. The death knell you see lurking is audience demographics (i.e. it's the economy, stupid). Red (Bush) vs. Blue (Gore) is a distinction of ideology, but it is also, as frankly we know, essentially a division of social class, race, and income. The red audience is largely suburban, college educated, professional, middle class; the blue (potential) audience more urban, less well educated, lower income. And this difference will matter infinitely more in the radio booth than the voting booth."
LOL! Great read. Take the time...

Jay Severin is host of an afternoon talk radio program on 96.9 FM.
Hmmm... I wonder what his angle is... :aok

We'll see if it flys or not. One interesting thing is that they'll have a show dedicated to the daily debunking of Limbaugh's lies. That, for me, is long past overdue.
Another show will be Al Frankens 'O'Franken Factor'. Direct satirical responses on current politcal issues....this should be funny...if you like Franken. The fact that you don't Rip, just makes the show even more appealing to me :)
Randi Rhodes will have her regular slot just after the 'three hour hate monger' at 3pm weekdays. Randi, who's last job was at WNJO Florida, was able to keep her job on a Clear Channel station by being the number one talk radio personality in ratings for her timeslot for over 5 years despite the left wing content of the show. Her show, IMO, is going to be just one of the most listened to on AirAmerica.
Also, instead of falling to the influence of op-ed writings from RW pundits, why don't you hold your opinion until after listening for a bit then making your own informed opinion instead of parroting the RW shills?
Personaly, I can't wait for tomorrows launch of AirAmerica, the RW has had a free ride for all too long on talk radio in America. I wonder if AFR will carry AirAmerica....for some reason I doubt they'll allow any show that debunks the lies of Limbaugh to be aired on AFR broadcast to our troops.

You gotta be pretty stupid to buy that red-blue BS. Since when do we count votes based on acreage?

I like al franken even if he is a nut. I was listening to Rush one day when he announced that Al Franken announced he was starting his own radio show. Rush was really cool about it saying that he has allways said if a libral wants to start a radio show to call him first and he will tell you exactly what libral america needs.
guess what...Franken called him and rush said they had a very polite conversation. What's next cats and dogs getting along?
Personally I dont think a we hate bush radio station will work. There is only so much Bush hating to go on and then librals have to start putting their message out.....that takes all of a minutes cause librals dont have a message.

This is rich! Severin trying to piss on AirAmerica. He must be afraid to be up against Randi Rhodes in the 3pm to 7pm timeslot.

Liberals have a message you just choose not to listen to it. Alot of liberals say the same thing about conservitives. Both just cover their ears and scream whenever someone moderate trys to talk about the issues.

What lies? Do you have specifics or are you just satisfied spewing unsubstaniated rhetoric?
Frog, please tell me what the liberal message is. I don't have my ears covered.. just can't seem to "get" what the libs stand for.

For current lies, some are exposed in Al Franken's new book.. for past lies.. they are exposed in Al Franken's old book. It's pretty cut and dry, and not a lot of research is needed.

Oh boy, do you actualy believe Rush's dribble? I thought you were more intelligent than that Steve.
Do this, google 'Rush Linbaugh lies'. You'll get over 68,000 hits.
Now, I know that that a google search doesn't prove anything but 68,000 hits seems to tell me that where there's smoke.....

didnt he lie about his drug addiction when the story first broke?
If you believe everything that Rushbo tells you then I don't think there is much help for you.

Middle class tax cuts, top 5 percent of the income makers get tax raises. (sorry bill gates and ted turner :( )
Freedom for a women to choose to go to hell for aborting her baby
seperation of church and state(public property is state boys)
Most parents are already complete idiots that are so selfish they have no idea what their kids are doing.
Make it so you dont get tax credits because a h2 is so big it is considered farm equipment. (noone has ever tried to slow cars down, in fact electric cars get 0-60 faster then gas powered ones)
Inforce our trade agreements with china so they dont dump cheap goods on us.
every time somone dies from being stupid pass a law to prevent it from happening again ( i blame the lawyers on this one not the democrats)
Sexual offenders cannot be cured by sticking them in prison. They should be locked up in mental institutes.
a bottle of piss with a cross and jesus in it is art but passion of the christ is anti semetic and fascist( yea pretty much)
