[Libertina]

The left lacks a talkshow host with the charisma of Oliver North, who was convicted of lying to Congress
ROTFLOL Just get Clinton to provide "balance." hehehe

[madrastex]

How many dead ad spots do Ben & Jerry's and Snapple want to flush down the toilet? ,,,,,,,,
Any thought as to who else would be stupid enought to advertise on this puke network?Would be a good list of outfits to boycott.

[jrushing]

That is what tics them off.
Maybe if the government ordered more people to listen to the liberals then they would be happy??
Mario who?? My son used to play a video game with Mario.
I didn't know he had a talk show!

[jrushing]

They should give that money to the churllren that they always want to do it for.

[seams2me]

Is that much whining allowed on the air?

[mathurine]

A liberal radio station; oh my. Will they be talking when they should have been listening, or vice versa? And would it actually matter?

[Revolting cat!]

Excellent point (#28.) To take it one step further, the entire success of Leftism (such as it is) is, in my opinion, due to the emotional, sentimental nature of television as a medium. The idiot box pulls on the heart's strings like a 19th century operetta, and when it tries to appeal to the lowest common denominator, the result is 24 hours of a drugstore novel on every channel.

[jejones]

Yup. Note that they said Michael Moore can "hold his own in an argument"--not that he argues logically or rationally, just that he can hold his own. If you look over at what the DUnces are saying, you see them saying that liberals' emotion and feelings would carry them on talk radio, a tacit admission of intellectual bankruptcy.

WONK

WIPE

[Ukiapah Heep]

I don't know if he can hold his own. Even if he did it would probably spray all over the place!

As if CBS, CNN, ABC, NBC, NYT, Washington Post, Reuters are not enough 24 hour a day liberal-spewing BS.

"We want to take an issue and make it funny and engaging," he said.

In other words, we will try to appeal to emotion because we will fail if we discuss things in an open, intellectually honest manner.

Good luck, leftists. If you really cared, you would take your $200 Million and feed the homeless or save the gay baby whales, or some such. In the free market, you are doomed.

[Slyfox]

Good luck, leftists...$200 Million

Since they are going to be throwing it away, too bad we couldn't figure out a way to let some of it dribble into our hands.

I already know the call letters to two of the stations: KLIE

KFIB

Are they going to have Bernie Ward out of SF write the scripts for them ?

[John Lenin]

I wouldn't be surprised if Bubba himself has a time slot.

[MCH]

Here's a novel idea for a host, if Franken[stein] doesn't work out...

How about Phil Donahue?

[YOMO]

How about KRAP, or Scare03 Radio?

Most liberals are incapable of carrying on an intelligent debate for very long before they become angry and frustrated at the opposing arguments (because they make sense). At this point they inevitably launch into adhominem attacks, emotional outbursts, name-calling, physical abuse (if you're unlucky enough to be there in person) and the like.

Who's going to want to listen to hours of this kind of crap, even assuming they actually let occasional opposing views through their screening process?

Short of such occasional "debate", the prevailing alternative programming would no doubt be a love-fest of lie-telling, anti-Americanism, and cries for more blood by the parasite class.

Overall, it would be like listening to 3 hours of the Jerry Springer show on the radio, without the added entertainment of actually getting the SEE the degenerate, low-IQ, gutter-trash freaks who call in.
