Why are liberal talk radio channels always going bankrupt?

‘cause they depend on liberals to fund it!

liberal economics never work....but it makes them feel all warm and fuzzy inside....and to a liberal..its the thought that counts...not the result

Liberal print is going bankrupt too. I just wish the liberal MSM tv networks would get wiped out.

Econ 101: Market Forces A.K.A. No demand forces the market to lower the supply and seek alternative income producing activity.

The medium is more of a two way conversation than a one way lecture, as leftists are used to (and actually must have).

Since liberalism is logically indefensible, they either must not take callers - which is not in accordance with the medium, or they have to try to defend their ideology which is indefensible,

and people stop listening.

Besides, they have to rely on advertising revenue, and their hardcore listeners are anti-capitalist and would probably refuse to buy anything advertised out of principle.

Because advertising rate are based on ratings. In this case, the advertisers probably wanted the station to pay them for advertising on the show.
