I read an article today that AAR's biggest challenge was going head-to-head with the extremely loyal and long tenured NPR listeners. That makes marketing sense to me, in that AAR was certainly not going to draw conservative listeners, and needed to draw progressives from NPR to succeed.
NPR depends upon public donations for the most part, and AAR depends upon advertising revenue.
I am starting to give more credit to the poster that suggested that progressives look for more depth in political discussions, rather than the drama performances of the conservative party, or liberal wannabe's.
