Reply #55: Sounds like you don't listen much to left wing radio.

Yes, they criticize but they educate too. They make you think about facts, not just yell out stupid opinions and talking points.

I listen to progressive radio almost all day long. There are some really good progressive talkers out there. But as any Smart business owner will tell you, you will not make money in your first five years (at a minimum), when starting a new business. I'm not sure what happened to Air America, I think it had more to do with really bad business management than lack of ratings.

There is a very large and hungry segment of the population who would love to hear progressive talk radio. But they are not given a chance.

The RW has a monopoly. The idea of a monopoly is to crush competition. Not allow competition to get a foot hold and compete. That's why progressive radio is difficult to get started. They are fighting a vast monopoly.
