Never could understand why anyone would have to listen to talk radio to tell them what to think. Watch or read real news and form your own opinions. Gets real boring when every one of you speaks in the same parroted sound bites all the time.

I have to go with Zsa Zsa Gabor's ghost. I mean Arianna Huffington.

I know, I know -- most people wouldn't call her "conservative." It's just that she's so annoying that she makes the right-wingers sound thoughtful and moderate.

What's that? She's not a talk-show host?

Oh. Never mind...

I don't like Limbaugh, but Obama is really making his job easy for him and he's going to gain alot in standing. Oh, well.
Hannity is slightly better. I guess he's like the repub counterpart to Olbermann. Not quite as nasty or "out there" but still a shill like Olbermann.
Beck: Another Olbermann equivalent but maybe even lower, like Maddows. A Lightweight, but not a complete phony like That Ed Shultz.
I can listen to Savage and agree with alot of his views. But he's an egotist which turns me off. Still, he bucks the trend of being politically correct so that's something.
Mark Levine. I don't get to listen to him much but his show is pretty good from what I have heard.
Oreilly: Sorely missed. He was the best nationally syndicated host. Glad he's still far and away the top guy in cable news.
Laura Abrams. Very intelligent, preofessional and puts on a good show. I don't get to listen to her much but will when she switches to a local station.
Phile Hendrie. In a class by himself, conservative at times, and the funniest guy to ever hit the talk radio airwaves or radio, period. LOL, I wish he still had a show.

Autre, if you read and watch the news and believe that crap, you are seriously misled. The newspapers and media are very liberal and talk radio balances out those issues for people intelligent enough to listen to another viewpoint.

When I used to live in the NY metropolitan area, I'd listen to Bob Grant, religiously.

Nowadays, the only talk show host I can listen to, even a little bit, is Mark Levin. On the way home from work, if I am not listening to my Mp3 player, which is rarely.
