TALK  RADIO


Last updated: March 5th, 1997


I listen to talk radio a lot, since I can do so at work without bothering anyone. I choose to listen to this genré for a couple of reasons: first, because it provides the other side of news stories, since the station I mostly listen to, KSFO 560AM, has a conservative slant, and it is well known that the majority of journalists self-identify as liberals, and second, because I am an information junkie, and talk radio provides a lot of otherwise not widely disseminated subjects and data about the world and country in which we live.

I started out first listening to   Rush Limbaugh on KNBR 680AM about 5 years ago, and have listened on a regular basis ever since. In spite of what a lot of liberals in the mainstream media, and inside the beltway, say, I have never ever heard Rush say anything racist, sexist, or "homophobic". Every time he is accused of such, it is apparent that his statements are being taken out of context (usually from an instance where he is either quoting from some liberal politition or leftist reporter) to point out the hypocracy of the left, or from a parody. Also, an awful lot of the criticism of Rush, from groups such as "F.A.I.R.", are attacking what are clearly Rush's opinions, as if he were stating a fact, and using that to try to show that Rush is inaccurate. Fat Chance! Which leads me to another subject. It's also interesting that whenever any comedian tries to do jokes about Rush, the only thing they have to use is his size. An example of this is the parodies that have been done on Saturday Night Live by that pathetic looser, Al Frankin. They never can use anything he has said or done, just his size. The thing that's funny (not "funny ha-ha" but "funny - yeah, right") is that if a conservative ever says anything about someone being overweight, they are being insensitive or not "Politically Correct".

Anyway, here is another web site dedicated to Rush: Rush to the Right Side

Another national talk show host I like is Ken Hamblin, the Black Avenger .

Also, Mike Reagan.
