WashPost style reporter, Paul Farri, who wrote the usual story (everytime the conservatives win elections they run this): "What will talk radio talk about now? This [i.e., Bush victory] could be a diaster for talk radio."
Laura points out conservatives have been winning elections for years and talk radio has grown over the years, but newspaper circulation is down. In particular, WashPost circ is down 10 percent in 2 years.
Farri says that newspapers reach a larger audience than talk radio so that you can't compare them like that. Plus, there is more competition now for newspapers and people are busy. He admits that WashPost needs to do things better, but mainly ascribes lower circulation to factors beyond the control of the Post.
Laura was great as usual!
