When I listen to my favorite hosts- Rush,Sean,Michael et al, on Iheart , every 30 minutes its liberal news updates, nauseating liberal adCouncil propaganda, and Tom Brokaw's commentary. I can't believe any listeners want that crap. And to make matters worse, it's the same commercials over and over. Any stations from other locales that can spare me? Please!
i hate that lumens commercial. its non stop!!!!
SiriusXM Patriot and Patriot Plus. Patriot is car only. Both are on streaming. The news is from Townhall.com. They have Wilkow, Levin, Hannity and Webb plus Beck. No Savage or Rush. I listen to Wilkow Majority from nine to noon Pacific on Patriot then again from noon to three on Patriot Plus. I don’t listen to Beck because he is just nuts in my opinion and Levin has gone off the rails over Trump so he is off my list now. Hannity is ok but he likes to get opposing sides to argue with each other and he likes Juan Williams so I don’t ever make a point off listening to him. Wilkow is worth trying and the only reason I pay 3.99 a month for streaming SiriusXM.
Every device has a ‘mute’ button.
i remember when Willow was starting out. he’s good

I used to listen to student-run radio in Dallas. KEOM. They play mainly ‘70s music with some ‘80s. But, they use the Texas State News, along with “educational” packages that include small science segments. TSN is relentlessly left-wing, driven by “studies news.” This is where half the newscast is, “New studies show (insert result liberals were paid to produce).” The science segments brook no dissent on global warming and have included glowing celebrations of Margaret Sanger.
So, I switched to KLUV. Exact same music, vapid, casually leftist DJs, but no left-wing news and educational packages. Until the mid ‘90s, KLUV played ‘50s and ‘60s music. I wish they hadn’t bumped up to ‘70s and ‘80s, but at least I like the music.
So why do the elites (I-Heart) allow Rush, Hannity et al on the air if they are putting on a full-court press to take Trump out? Could it be their entertainment programming is just that. Entertainment with biases included. And their news programming is an attempt at providing the news and being objective? remember, it’s I-Heart news you are hearing.
That is corporate talk radio for ya.
They have squeezed the golden goose almost to the point where it’s dead.
Try Rush on a little radio station in a tiny fishing village at 11am. Few commercials, instead plays the bumper music during interludes.(Guntersville AL)

Try the WJR Detroit app for Rush, and the AM1400 The Patriot app (hard to find on the app stores, but it’s there) for Hannity, et al.
Because they can't stop them under the Constitution. Not yet, anyway.
If Hillary gets in, I would expect right-wing talk radio to be taken off the air. They've already tried several times.
Hillary will pack the SCOTUS with more far left-wing activists, and that will be the end of constitutional limits on the government.
Of course, the destruction of the 2A will be the opening shot of CWII, so she'll have her hands full with other matters.

WMAL has the two worst local news readers in the USA: Bill Thompson and Maria Leaf.
Maria Leaf is simply an insult to one’s ears. She has an unfeminine deep voice which is hyped in a failed attempt to emulate Paul Harvey. She is also an unrepentant liberal—she really enjoyed the travails imposed on Bob McDonnell, for example.
Thompson has a really excellent, silky smooth radio voice. Unfortunately, he is a liberal @sshole; his stories 100% contradict a point that Brian Wilson or Chris Plante have just made.
Sure I-Heart could stop them. If I-Heart stopped syndicating and carrying them, many would atrophy or struggle.
