Nobody disputes that liberal radio has a long, long, long way to go before it can compete with Limbaugh’s 20-something year reign as a serial liar, but why is it that he feels he has to issue a press release chock full of deceptive language? The only conclusion one can come to is that Rush knows progressive radio has an audience and that he’s no longer alone on the airwaves.

Then I suppose that Air America is just doing fabulously in New York? Surely it is getting significantly higher ratings than the prior programming.
Surely Ed Schultz isn’t doing well in his markets, going toe to toe (and even beating) Limbaugh on occasion?? No, that would crack the matrix.
First off, who is Ed Schultz? Second of all, who gives a ****? You were just using this as another excuse to bash Rush. If Air America was doing so well, I suppose I would have heard of these people by now. If their product is such a viable entity in the marketplace, I have to assume that new markets and stations are waiting in line for the chance to air Air America.
Once again, I’ll point out that Ed Schultz is growing and seems to be enough of a threat that Oxycontin-boy had to issue a press release.
If that article on his site is indicative of the type of work he does, I have no doubt that he will be a household name in no time whatsoever.
From the link…
In other words, of the 591 stations on which Limbaugh broadcasts, he chose to highlight four where his victories are at best misleading, at worst plain dishonest.
OR ….
This press release is just the latest in a month long string of releases covering markets from New York to Spokane. ThinkProgress has just chosen to highlight 4 where his “victories” aren’t the slam-dunk that they are everywhere else.
Actually, he’s the KING of talk radio; has destroyed the Progressive competition for years and years, and doesn’t have to take money away from hungry kids to do it.
Seems to me its a bad time for progressives to initiate a discussion about talk radio.
