There must be soem demographic reason for this. One thing for sure, I've Air America got stronger ratings, there would be a lot more liberal talk radio. The agenda of radio station owners is advertizing revenue, not politics.

I never cared much for Franken either but he is long gone and running for Senator.
There are far better programs to listen to such as Thom Hartman, Rachel Maddow, Amy Goodman, Laura Flanders, and others. The liberal talk hosts that remind me of Rush and make my ears bleed are Randi Rhodes and Mike Malloy. I have no use for screeching hyperbole.
And you are absolutely correct about advertizing revenue driving radio station owners, but it is also true that profitable liberal programs were cancelled after the '06 election for very political reasons.
For liberal silliness, I just have to have me some Stephanie Miller every morning.
