Pick one, doesn't matter. They all read from the same script.
Yeah, they are all thick as 2x4s.

Maybe some would learn to think for themselves, but most would be mindless sheep waiting to be fleeced by a new con man.

(128,844 posts)to hear "the other side" way before Limpballs hit the air. Most big cities had local talk jocks who jumped on the Raygun bandwagon and ironically, most have been displaced to pave the way for "cheaper" (from a local station's perspective) programming via syndication.
Being near NY, Baltimore, and D.C., I would also tune into stations where one heard Bob Grant, Tom Marr, Rev. Les Kinsolving (and locally here Herb Homer, Dom Giordano). On the left, there were few but one could hear Bernie McCain, Lynn Samuels (although she went into a bizarro world later in life) and locally Frank Ford, Austin Culmer. There were even a few local weather vanes like Dominic Quinn and Susan Bray.
IMHO, enough of the syndicated noise machine. The only big syndicated program that I used to listen to in the '70s and early '80s was Larry King when he used to do his graveyard shift show (later replaced by Jim Bohannon when Larry hit CNN). Public (free) Talk radio needs to "come home" to the local market and discuss local, over-the-fence chatter issues.
