Left wing vs right wing radio poll rate the host. needs DU!!!
The right controls the White House and Congress, and it dominates the radio talk show airwaves. But liberal radio is starting to show signs of progress. One example: the network Air America, which features comedian Al Franken and others. A year after its debut, it's expanding its reach and raising money. Can liberal radio turn more dials to the left?

1. something really creepy about the poll
Edited on Wed Feb-02-05 06:00 AM by KitchenWitch
for all the progressive radio hosts, it listed the results for "Thumbs Down" first, and for all the wingnut hosts, "Thumbs Up" was listed first! No media bias there!

edited because apparently I cannot spell poll correctly

12. We can't have the Left getting too many votes, can we?
I'm surprised they didn't offer Satan and Osama instead of Franken and Randi.

14. he is a lot better known than most
While I agree that there are many other qualified ones, Springer is a national figure due to his TV show.
