Talk radio has been hurt by the Internet, and primarily pod casting. They fought on the music side, denying Internet radio, even as they were starting to monetize it, and now most of them have nothing...

They suffer from that same over sized ego's that print newspapers have, and they are all going to go down the tubes to the toilet.

Satellite radio is suffering from the same ego and they are not going to survive either.

They need to realize that things have changed and change with them, but it seems that they cannot.

I pay a decent a amount for commercial free programs that I like and I'm willing to do that because I can listen to them when and where I wish, and also how as well. You can't beat that with a stick.

Now we just need to get rid of TV.

What we are going to see more is more emphesis on local conservitive talkradio shows, folks who know what is going on the local level. As I have said in another posting, the only nationals I listen now is Rush Limbaugh and Mark Levin.

Been without TV for 30 years. I like streaming audio radio, but you need actual stations to provide the content. Or, at least, until now we've needed actual stations.
