Why "liberal radio" probably won't catch on in the long term:

There is a different mindset between liberals and conservatives. (news
flash, I know). Conservative radio is super successful because it is a
group-think format. "You need to act, think, speak, a certain way to be
a true and loyal American, and you certainly want to subscribe to the
following attitudes and values:____________________" Stereotypical
conservatives will more quickly gravitate toward a format where an
authority figure (such as a preacher or a radio show host)defines who
is good, who is bad, and which causes and candidates deserve political
support.

There is nothing particularly "wrong" with that, but it isn't how
liberals tend to operate. We liberals have been badly out-organized by
the right wing, and that trend is unlikely to reverse. Liberals are not
only skeptical of conservatives, we're skeptical of one another more
often than not. Sure, we'll turn out 100,000 for an anti-war march, but
there's likely to be 50,000 "discussions" going on in the crowd about
just *why* we should oppose the war.

One can see this trend in politics. The (more conservative) Republicans
continue to clean house (in all but the most porgressive states)
because they have nearly everybody singing from the same sheet music
most of the time. The (more liberal) Democrats are all over the field,
rather than working together, because the liberals are
often more concerned with being individuals than with forming a group
of loyal worker bees willing to take orders from the top.

A presumed majority of liberals doesn't want an "approved" liberal
philosophy dispensed by a radio network. Based on ratings, many
conservatives crave it.
