The Left and Right Agree: "Talk Radio is the Problem"

Those of you on the Left refuse to get a new enemy--the political "Right" is completely on your side now on most issues. Even talk radio is seen as the scourge of civilization by both of you. Trent Lott tells the NY Times, 6/15/07:

• "“Talk radio is running America. We have to deal with that problem.”

Having failed at numerous attempts at talk radio, the Left agrees:

• "Report: The Right Wing Domination of Talk Radio and How to End It," 6/20/07.

The so-called Right-wing Republican's comment from the NY Times, 6/15/07, "Senate Leaders Agree to Revive Immigration Bill."

• The Left-Wing story from "Think Progress" (and "they're hiring")

Content is hard. We listen not because someone spews invective in one direction or other but because he can back up what he says with facts. The Left and the former Right intensely dislike facts and direct access to government by the people. (The Left uses the courts to bypass the people). Or at least, as with the baseball media, they want you to have THEIR VERSION of the facts hoping you're too passive, out of time or stupid to ascertain the truth. All that's lost is lifetimes of work and sacrifice. That's my experience as a long-time talk radio listener.
