Does Talk Radio Incite Hate? The hate already exists like with the skinheads in Germany........talk radio simply feeds on it. However, that's not the same as making racist comments. However, they do make statements like these : "Talk radio can be one of the most divisive mediums in the nation," Rendall said. "Some of these shows, to a greater or lesser degree, engage in kinds of bigotry by saying things like, 'These peaceniks are traitors' (or) 'These black people are undermining our society,' and they are bound to find some resonance with listeners."" I don't consider them racist but they do feed into the anger and hatred and yes, racism that already exists in their listeners. Like I have said before, humans seem to be hardwired almost instinctively to hate those from differing races. Overcoming that instinct is very difficult as Europeans will learn in coming decades.
