Bernie Ward?

Wow… I was kind of shocked when a friend from California told me the news:

KGO Host Bernie Ward Indicted
KGO night-time talk show host Bernie Ward was indicted in Federal Court today on two counts of child pornography using the Internet. Ward’s attorney says the incidents are from more than four years ago and were a [...]

Where is Laura Ingraham — Power to the people — when you need her?

Laura frequently appears on Fox News Channel, and now she is running the “power to the people” crusade.
Quoted from her website:
In Power to the People, Ingraham focuses on what she calls the “pornification” of America. She discusses issues such as traditional family values, education, and American patriotism. Power to the People stresses the importance of [...]

Ron Paul supporters attacking Sean Hannity’s site…

There seems to be some kind of ‘attack’ by Ron Paul supporters of the Sean Hannity forums. By attack, I think what is meant is redundant threads being created, using the website to promote the candidate more than to engage in debate, etc.
I have to say if it was my website and suddenly the dynamic [...]

Don’t be fooled by Rush!

In a recent speech, Rush said the following:
How, in less than 250 years, has the American population built the most prosperous, the most powerful, the most advanced civilization ever?” The Europeans have been around thousands of years longer than we have — the Asians much longer than that — and yet we run rings around [...]

This dailykos issue is only about starving them…

Hot Air has the clip from OReilly
This jetblue story is ridiculous. There are tons of advertisers that put ads on controversial shows, left and right. For Kirsten to say that corporations should avoid the blogosphere is ridiculous, because they should then avoid every other show like Hannity and Colmes, OReilly Factor, Olbermann, Michael Savage, Thom Hartmann, etc. [...]

You guys can have Kirsten Powers…

AllahPundit says that she has switched to the dark side. He even asks this question at the end of the posting:
Exit question: Who are they going to get to be Michelle’s Democratic opponent on O’Reilly now?
Thank you, thank you, thank you for realizing the Kirsten Powers doesn’t represent the more mainstream democratic viewpoint! I am not [...]

Mike is back!

I love his callingallwingnuts.com website. Mike Stark used to frequently call up Right Wing talk show hosts to ask them tough questions. This clip is very interesting. What I really love are these hypotheticals that look like they come straight out of the movie.
Example: If the terrorist is telling you that he knows where the [...]

Are we not better served by more competition and a broader diversity of opinions?

Regardless of which side of the right-left issue you are coming from, don’t you want our airwaves to be used in a manner than fosters diversity of opinions?
I understand that it’s important to have commercial viability, but if all stations could be profitable by only having Howard Stern or Temptation Island on all day, I [...]

Houston, we have a problem!

When even Trent Lott has a problem with talk radio, you know something weird is going on…
Personally, I am a big fan of Air America Radio (I miss Al Franken and love The Young Turks), but in general I have to admit talk radio is more about entertainment than about real serious deep discussion, and [...]
