Does NPR not count? they're pretty darned liberal, and they have a very strong and popular presence on the airwaves. Maybe because they're non-profit, they're not considered?

I'm not sure I understand the point. Wasn't it just a few years back, liberals were writing off conservative talk radio as being right-wing nutjobs? Now they're saying they can't reach the mainstream, because there's nobody listening to their talk radio? So that means that the audience must not be nearly as right-wing nutjobby as you previously asserted?

My thought is that they have free speech, just like the conservatives. They've chosen, mostly for audience demand reasons, not to go via talk radio. The problem lies, then, not with the talk radio hosts (who have a huge audience of conservatives), but with the audience, who isn't listening to talk radio.

Am I right?
