WEMP IMPROVES SLIGHTLY, AND WERE'S WCBS 880 ? OUCH

"An angry Libertarian and true Conservative leaning talk format would be a welcomed change from the current talkers that are mouth pieces for the establishment Republicans, Democrats, Neocons and Progressives."

Aren't angry tea party types already drowning everyone else out in commercial talk radio these days? It can get confusing at times, what with the tea party taking over the GOP and dominating its message...but as far as anyone else is concerned, if you want a mainstream Democrat you're pretty much limited to David Paterson on WOR, the noncomms (excluding WBAI) are non-partisan through and through, and anyone else isn't to be found anyplace on the air right now.

I do not see mainstream Democrat talk getting any traction since the media is dominated by that ideology. I agree about the Tea Party, the message is completely unrecognizable from what it was a few years ago before it got totally co-opted. These people temporarily had a voice during the transition period before the Republican establishment took it over. Talk radio has since switched sides back to Neo-Conservative Progressive so they are now have no outlet.

Combine them with a faction of the 99ers that share the same grievances or whom are sympathetic to both their causes and you have a sizable audience. Beck's TV show ratings were a good example of this.
