Back in the mid 2000s when I foolishly still believed in GWB I would listen to all three in a row on my week days off, it was like the GWB support club.
A few years later becoming demoralized over GWB I soured on the three.
Hannity would call Levin The Great One and Levin would call Hannity his good friend.
I know. The point I was making was should we ban firearms in theaters for a dottering ex cop who is still on his cop power trip. When the ‘joker’ shows up with mahem on his mind, the good citizen CCW holder who left his weapon in the car to obey the rules will stand there helplessly while he and others are mowed down. ‘Joker’ does not obey the rules.
now. What's your point???>
Two posters referred to Aurora CO shooting in reply to my post.
Just trying to provide clarity.
If that is OK with you.
I was aware that Medved personally knew Hillary Clinton while he was in college. I was unaware that he roomed with Lanny Davis (or that Lanny and Hillary may have a 40+ year history together).
Just trying to provide clarity.
OK
I figure by taking it to the Aurora monster I was trying to provide clarity on why savage is wrong. You obviously know savage is a jerk as you stopped listening after he made the comment.
Obama will send the FCC and DOJ after them for collusion.
I used to listen to all the talkers as much as I could. Mostly thru podcasts and live streams. I burned out. But the primary people were Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Laura Ingraham, Ruaty Humphries, Sean Hannity, Michael Savage, Mark Levin, George Noory, Dana Loesch, Steve Deace, Jerry Doyle, Hugh Hewitt, Andy Parks, Laurie Roth, Herman Cain, Neal Boortz and sometimes Alex Jones, because he went on C2C and feuds with Glenn Beck, among others. One thing would lead to another and I would land on new people and check them out.
I can honestly say that many times they don’t know what the other guy is up to or saying and doing. So they make stuff up. They also do get competitive so then at times they start feuding. When that happens they start listening to each other enough to find things to attack each other with.
At the same time few of them were friends, but it is rare.
Not all of these talkers will agree on everything 100 percent. And they tend to sometimes focus on small miniscule things that bother then about about other talkers than the bigger picture.
Rush Limbaugh is one of those guys who has made friends with just about anybody he can,in the conservative talk radio movement, but has also “worked” or met with just about everyone from Rusty Humphries to Bob Grant to Neal Boortz.
So, in my opinion, the feuds took away from focusing on the messages of the talk hosts. Everyone has their favorites or the person whom they get to hear because of time constraints and changes in affiliates and syndication in each city and area.
All I can say is do whatever you want. I found that people get into feuds over hosts as listeners on internet forums about as much as the hosts. So, in the end, I’ll follow who ever I want. And it matters little what others think about if I want to hear what they have to say. But after hearing lots of shows I burned out.
I still carry a Blaze subscriptions and now my favorite talker Dana Loesch replaced Glenn on Fridays with a Blaze show. Granted, i don’t believe her when she says she used to support and actively campaign for Democrats. And then she had an epiphany. The story is as corny to me as the one Steve Deace tells about how he came to be conservative. Started with him finding the Promise Keepers. Ok then. Whatever works for them is fine with me.
I also still subscribe to C2C podcasts and Rush Limbaugh. Everything else I get for free. I think Rusty Humphries is without a show now so I dropped his podcast, which has another host now. And I think Hannity’s podcasts are free since leaving his former syndication and that Savage puts his archives at youtube for free since he has no podcast page.
But I say to each their own. I no longer promote anyone I might like.
