The right wing hate radio and tv guys have ALWAYS been popular. I am old enough to remember the infamous Dan Smoot, Wally George (now remembered only as the father of Rebecca De Mornay from "Risky Business"), Milton Downey, Jr. and a whole slew who came and went with hordes of followers. Downey changed sides as he was dying. It is not unusual for a spewer of hate to seek redemption before death. I find it funny that Rush and Savage have never been able to make it on television, but Hannity and O'Reilly have. Savage I understand, because it is hard to identify with the way he looks. Of course, he is the best educated of them all, with a Ph.D in Witch Doctor Medicine from U.C. Berkeley. But he looks the most like the Missing Link. Hannity I don't get at all. I can't listen and look at him without laughing. O'Reilly and Limbaugh are bright guys, though total hypocrites. Glen Beck is simply sad. The liberal hate mongers have never been popular. Mainly because liberals have too much class to listen to AM Radio. <G> There used to be a joke about how to stop your radio from being stolen from your car. Put a sign on it that says "AM Only." Of course, I preferred the one about how to keep you car from being stolen. Put "Diesel" on the trunk.
