It appears throughout the country, nationally syndicated political talk is dying. One of the big problems is that there is a lack of real conversation regarding the issues. The host such as Limbaugh goes through his rant and is followed by callers that just happen to always agree with him. Ed McMahon types as it were.
The ratings don't lie. Philadelphia is dropping Limbaugh and Hannity altogether.
NJ 101.5 FM (New Jersey) offers more upbeat conversational talk about issues that matter to everyone. The hosts are generally not hard-headed and if you disagree with them, you certainly can voice your opinion without having the host go ballistic on you, Hannity Style. They may discuss politics but it's only a very small part of their topic list. They also have far better ratings and much better demographics than syndicated political talkers.
My question is why doesn't Premiere Radio Networks offer such a program and abandon the Mean Ole People talk format?
