It does exist...on NPR, of course. But not really commercially! (In fact in Boston a centrist/left duo, Eagan and Braude, were quickly scooped up by NPR affiliate WGBH after FM talker WTKK changed to rap)
Commercial liberal talk radio...? Who would want to advertise?

“So these big corporations like Walmart and the oil companies are just EVIL! OK, we’ll be right back after this..public service announcement...”

A guy PAID to have libtalk on AM 1510 Boston but it flopped. (Now the station, currently doing sports, will air ‘libertarian-lifestyle’ shows like Glenn Beck, Dr K, etc.
starting June 1)

I still remember how Clear Channel started prog talk on AM 1200 and 1430 in Boston, Oct of ‘04, and Al Franken set up to do shows in Boston the week of the election. It was going to be a glorious tribute to President-elect Kerry! Ha, did not happen, and for several days afterwards Franken and company sounded depressed and sleep deprived, when not ranting about another ‘stolen election’..)
