  • Talker's Magazine
    The quirky talk radio trade mag. Check the Talk Radio Research Project- it's not very scientific, but places on the top 15 talkers list (scroll down to Talk Radio Audiences By Size)) are as hotly contested as Emmys (and mean just about as much).

right-wing blogs we like

  • The Reagan Wing
    Hearin lies the real heart of Washington State Republicans. Doug Parris runs this red-meat social conservative group site which bars no holds when it comes to saying who they are and who they're not; what they believe and what they don't; who their friends are and where the rest of the Republicans can go. Well-written, and flaming.
  • Orbusmax
    inexhaustible Drudgery of NW conservative news
  • The Radio Equalizer
    prolific former Seattle KVI, KIRO talk host speaks authoritatively about radio.

Savage is stating the obvious!

AuthenticAndrew

He shares an audience with Limbaugh. For what it's worth I don't think he's scoring any points.

chucks

Just another little family squable. We will be ok in the morning. You just don't worry your pretty little ol' head Michael.

"Just another little family squable. We will be ok in the morning. You just don't worry your pretty little ol' head Michael."

At we were concerned...now we're just amused.

This is a fake radio feud. Limbaugh and Savage are two of the highest rated talk show hosts in American. They command a combined total of 25 million listeners per day. This is pro wrestling on the radio. Triple H vs Hulk Hogan. For entertainment purposes only.

Nolan

>> They command a combined total of 25 million listeners per day.>>

No they don't. Look closely at the claims and you'll see that they represent the number of people who listen for at least FIVE MINUTES a WEEK on average.

I listen to Limbaugh about five minutes a week, but I'm sure not listening every day and five minutes is all I can stand.

If I had a nickel for everyone Mr Weiner has called a fraud - I'd be able to donate heavily to MoveOn.org. He is all about the shock value. I wonder what is happening to his anti-Great Britain campaign?

Drew

Looks like he's calling for back-up, and it ain't coming. Karma can have a pretty nasty bite.

joanie

He's looking for the same paycheck limp-paugh has.

Anyway, who cares?

Woody Held

Eating whose own?

Savage is a Bush-hater, and his strident, angry rhetoric is much more common from lefty bloggers than from conservatives.

And isn't the name-change thing a lefty phenomenon too, like in Hollywood? Like with Chris (formerly Christine) or Gary Hart (formerly Hartpence).

Drew

No, changing your name to Savage is more of a capitalistic strategy. He knew he couldn't sell as much baloney to you cons with a name like Weiner. Kinda like how he stayed out of the military to grow pot in his apartment (he called it studies in herbal management)- that was sort of a righty thing to do back then.

Woody Held

Growing pot was never, ever righty, it was lefty everywhere, all the time.

Then there is RockStar soda, which he helped forumlate, using his knowledge of herbs & spices used by primatives that he studied as an anthropologist.

Anything called RockStar is inherently left-wing, as is a drink designed around herbs used by primatives.

mrogi

Limbaugh and Savage are two extremely rich boys having a pissing contest while we watch.

Woody Held

If savage has been drinking Rockstar, and Limbaugh Snapple, my guess is that Savage wins.

What difference will this make 6 months from now ?

    • KIRO 710ESPN Seattle 710 KHz
      Games and sports-blabber
    • KIROFM 97.3
      Multi-format: news and nearly all local talk. This is where classic KIRO AM news talk radio went... hopefully, not to die. The home of Dave Ross & Luke Burbank, Dori Monson, Ron & Don, Frank Shiers, Bill Radke, Linda Thomas, Tony Miner and George Noory.
    • KUOW FM 94.9
      Seattle's foremost public radio news and talk.
    • KVI am 570 KHz
      Visit the burnt-out husk of one of the seminal right-wing talkers in all the land. Here's where once trilled the reactionary tones of Rush Limbaugh, John Carlson, Kirby Wilbur, Mike Siegel, Peter Weissbach, Floyd Brown, Dinky Donkey, and Bryan Suits. Now it's Top 40 hits from the '60's & '70's aimed at that diminishing crowd who still remembers them and can still hear.
    • KTTH am 770 KHz
      Right wing home of local, and a whole bunch of syndicated righties such as Glennn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Michael Medved, Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Lars Larsony, and for an hour a day: live & local David Boze.
    • KPTK am 1090 KHz
      Syndicated liberal talk. Stephanie Miller, Thom Hartmann, Ed Schultz, Randi Rhodes, Norman Goldman fill in the large hole to the left on Northwest radio dial.
    • KLFE AM 1590 kHz
      Syndicated right-wing 2nd stringers like Mark Levin, Bill Bennett, Mike Gallagher, Dennis Prager, Dennis Miller and Hugh Hewitt inhabit this timid-voiced neighbor honker for your radio enjoyment (unless you're behind something large like Costco).

      News, traffic, Ken Schram and John Carlson.
