Yes.

Here is quick clip and link to article regarding Fonda and women's radio network that Rush was discussing.

Note use of word "upscale" at end. Ties right in with Rush's elitist reference regarding snooty Lib Left

New All-Women Talk Radio Net Launched
by Tom Siebert, Thursday, Sep 14, 2006 9:00 AM ET

THE MALE-DOMINATED BASTION OF TALK radio now has some competition--women want to bring a kinder, gentler tone to the dial.

GreenStone Media--a radio company run by the Clinton Administration's FCC commissioner and founded by noted feminist activists, including Gloria Steinem and Jane Fonda--has launched a national all-woman talk network, targeted to women 25-54.

...

"On one hand, with all the ways to reach women out there, I can't imagine a talk-radio format is necessary," mulls Michele Selby...

"On the other hand, radio needs to do something, because it's not doing very well. Talk radio is geared largely to men, and cable TV networks like Lifetime, WE, HGTV and Oh! are doing well. It's got possibilities, but it will take time to grow into it. If they could get one of the satellite providers, it would definitely help. They'll be drawing a more upscale audience."

Wow, no stereotypes THERE.

I listen to as much talk radio as possible, and I never watch Lifetime, WE or Oh. [But I fail to see how HGTV is strictly for women.]
