Gene how dare you use facts in this debate. You know global warming
isn't happening because two people have said so, Shortwave and GWB!
Last night I listened to one of the most obnoxious guy on the radio
for less than 5 min. Hannity was carrying on about the global temp
had only increased one degree in the last hundred years. Is there
a base of historical data that both the believers and detractors
can agree upon?


You listen to Sean Hannity? Well, that explains a lot.
He was on the radio when I started my car. He was screaming about
everything, and it was like a car accident, I couldn't turn it off.

Have you ever listened to talk radio?


Only on NPR, never on Faux or any stations that carry Faux feeds.

The only "talk radio" show I listen to with any regularity is the
Diane Rehm Show, which is probably the best talk radio show out there.
I don't think I have ever heard talk radio I would actually plan on
listening, even though Hannity tells everyone all he asks for is "3
hours a day, everyday". I have enjoyed many of the in depth interviews
or subject reviews on NPR, but I only hear it if I happen to be in the
car and I happen to hit the button for NPR. I only listen to NPR, if I
plan on driving for a long time. Normally I don't bother to change the
channel and it stays on the station that provides the best traffic
updates. Last night, I had to change the channel.

Diane Rehm is on in the AM here, and she runs a well-balanced and
controlled adult discussion program, with loonies on the left or right
simply not invited. Actually few of her shows are political in nature,
but when they are, there is really thoughtful discussion.

...and she leans way left, as do most of her guests, as does NPR in
general. But that's OK.

They definitely do lean to the left, but if you compare them to
Fox, they are Fair and Balanced, but then again compared to Fox, Goebel
was Fair and Balanced.

Compared to some of the characters on Fox, that is true. I find Fox to
present the news in a balanced way. By that I mean both sides are shown,
whereas on NBC only one side is shown.

However, I will admit that NBC had a presentation last night on Iraqis
returning to Iraq from Syria. I was surprised to see it.
