If they can afford to throw away half their potential listeners, more power to 'em... Fools.
This is a pretty silly article. If Debbie Schlussel had any experience with the media she would know that most are die hard liberals. This is not exclusive to XM. She was trying out for a channel that is being run by a woman with an agenda. The channel will be a failure and I would not be surprised if it is dropped off the XM line up before long.
XM still has Fox News and most other conservative hosts on their own channel. Perhaps Ms. Schlussel should apply for a spot on one of those channels. There is plenty of talk of skanks and whores on Opie and Anthony on XM.
