My local talk radio is at least NINE hours per day of Trump hate. Beck, Levin and a CNN contributor/local guy Ben Ferguson.
I certainly can see talk show hosts being divided, perhaps even with a majority supporting globalism/establishment.
BUT it is ALL TRUMP HATE/ALL THE TIME.
I just wanted to know (from Trumpers, this is a Trumpers only thread): IS YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH YOUR LOCAL TALK RADIO STATION(S) LIKE MINE? Does this unanimity seem a bit..coincidental? It all seemed to happen at one time. All their rants are INTERCHANGEABLE. Their rants are the same anti-Trump screeds you see online, no matter how big of a stretch a given criticism might by, how hypocritical, there's zero critical thinking involved.
They jump knee-jerk style to whatever position on a topic is OPPOSITE of Trump's.
Rush says more positive things about Trump than anyone else on radio...except maybe for Savage.
Rush has also been VERY hard on the GOPe. There’s no love there.... In either direction.
Unfortunately it’s baked in the cake.
The GOPe is driving the “anyone but Trump” train, and they sold out to the Dems.
Nobody is looking out for or cares about the people, only about power.
Trump is the only one who does indeed want to “make America great again” — so he must be stopped.
Here is the evidence:
GOPe is in bed with the Democrats for a Hillary presidency.
See:
Tech billionaires (major Dem donors) plot with GOP leaders at exclusive island resort to stop Trump
NO one listens to that rubbish, so don’t worry about it.
My life has been much more productive since Trump came on the scene.
1. I listen very little Fox anymore.
2. Zilch Kelly Megyn
3. 50% less Rush
4. Zilch Levin and the Dry drunk Beck
5. Have actually listened more to the other people on CNN, MSNBC etc. and like.
6. Still listen to most of The Five
7. Will listen still to some of Fox & Friends
8. Have faith that Charles Krauthammer will get on board
9. REading Ann again.
10.New friends with Diamond and Silk
11.And last but not least...Thank GOD for my friends here on Free REpublic!!!!!!
He is total establishment and can barely hide his anti-Trump/anti-nationalist feelings.
Huh? If you no longer tune him in then how could you possibly make the above statement with all honesty??????
Milwaukee 4 local hosts on WISN and WTMJ rabid anti Trump,radios now off
Yes! Im in Atlanta where we have Erick Erickson. His hate for Trump does not make sense. Last time I listened to him on the radio he designated a whole show to “Call in and tell us about the crazy trump supporter in your life”... His fans do not agree with himat all (on the radio and facebook). As you may know Trump went big in Georgia... Look at Erick Erickson’s facefook pages. The comments are 90% pro trump anti-Erickson... As you know it has been discoverer Erick Ericson is getting millions from romney/bush ‘Our Principles PAC’...
There may be something going on here.
“Rush is getting on my nerve as he supports Cruz and it shows.”
And he will put on a disgruntled Cruz supporter who will criticize him for not endorsing Cruz as proof that he is being objective, to give himself the chance to proclaim, falsely, that he has not chosen sides.
He will, on occasion, blow hot and cold. But if you have noticed, he has NEVER criticized Cruz. NEVER!!!!
I will never forget the shenanigans he pulled for Cruz just before the South Carolina primary. Pure deception. Wanted to use South Carolina as Cruz’s launch pad. Did not work.
Sean Hannity is the only one I listen to anymore. He was the only one today saying the charges against Trump’s campaign manager were absurd and bogus. I listen to Rush sometimes, but not as much anymore. Besides them it’s pretty much just bash Trump sessions non stop. I don’t know what they are thinling, it’s just going to alienate Trump supporters even more.
You’re right, I forgot about Savage, I like him as well. But besides him and Hannity, and sometimes Rush, Trump is must be on every other hosts hate list.
I carry taped books for any long drive. Much more agreeable than the garbage talk shows dish out.
I know they are establishment; I know that Trump smashing the Washington Elite Insider Oligarchs will totally screw things up for media, including conservative media, as well as, of course, Cruz and the Globalists No Borders Professional Political Oligarchs. But...
Their vitriol seems even beyond that. ...It's almost like...they are getting PAID...They don't take a BREATH, it's wall-to-wall. Lame jokes and lame arguments when they can't come up with a halfway cogent one. Like their getting paid by the word, or by the minute of Trump hate they spew out.
I got a new attitude several years ago, ergo I quit listening to Rush, Mark and local conservative talk radio. I “figgerd” it might be time to quit being influenced by their same ol’, same ol’ and start thinking for myself. BTW, that’s a riot about what you said about Beck......lol
Newstalk 104.9 wbuv. Last year after Trump announced, the two local guys bashed Trump minimally. As he gained momentum, the station fired those guys and hired jerry v. He foamed at the mouth about Trump every morning. For a while he wouldn’t say Trumps name and referred to him as the nameless one. Then he called him donnie quack quack for a period. I think he maybe be moving toward the acceptance stage as I hear him occasionally side with Trump, who he now calls by name. Their facebook page last I looked had a 1.1 rating down from 4.9 before hiring him. They also put on megan mccain in place of Savage.
5am-gerry v. anti Trump
8am-glen beck. anti Trump
11am-rush.I personally think he’s anti Trump, just hedging imho.
2pm-hannity. Seems receptive.
Not sure the lineup after. I really don’t listen to any of it much anymore. The stupidity they broadcast is just too...well....stupid.
Just had to drop the five from my list. Jeddedia and Gutfeld are off their rockers about a “touch” of Ms. Fields. The Judge, Napolitano had it right, no prosecutor would bring this case forward. Don’t really know about Krathhmmer either.
Justice Jennine is OK, Dobbs, OK, Gasparino is so anti Trump he must expect a raise, and It is getting difficult to find anyone on Fox who is not under the gun to at least find Trump Off putting.
Agree totally! I'm a 24/7 subscriber and have given that up. I don't think I've listened to him in over a month, So sad. He started out great and agreed with Trump then I don't know what happened---well, in a way I think I do, Levin went over to Cruz and since he's considered the "top dog", Rush is probably on board because of him----who knows. All I know is I'm done, and same with FOX news.
Back to the topic, as you are both pro-Trump and pro-Cruz, if I read your comment correctly, many times you see someone say that on FR. My point? Just the ODDS ALONE would mean that there is a segment who feel that way, so the talk show hosts would have at least a few like that. But I only hear PURE Trump hatred, and the accompanying CRUZ RELIGIOUS WORSHIP. The ubiquity in "conservative" media: it's like how the left gets their faxed talking points and repeat the same word, phrase or meme on every cable news channel that day. Same with the talk shows and Trump.
There’s nary a news source especially on the national syndicated level that can be trusted without massive bias against the front runner. Your BS meter has to be set on maximum and you have to almost double check everything.
I’m with you on Rush. I have him on in my truck and today I gave him 5 minutes and turned music on. I keep thinking for some crazy reason I guess Rush will start taking nice about his old golf buddy Donald. I have gone back to looking for Laura Ingraham and listening to her talk about her kids and fun stuff. I can only get her on my phone. My life seems to be calmer and I get news off of here.
The same all over
Me too, been listening since I found him looking for news when Saddam invaded Kuwait in 1990.
The local afternoon drive host is unlistenable anymore.
The Cheap Labor Express has bought almost everybody in radio.
