The battle of the airwaves
"Sarcastic, bilious and very rightwing, talk radio host Rush Limbaugh has
become one of the most powerful voices in American politics. Can a group of
liberals really beat him at his own game?
(...)
Over the past 12 years, Limbaugh - whose Manhattan-based company Excellence
in Broadcasting syndicates his show to hundreds of stations in every state
in the nation - has built up a base of 20 million listeners who tune in five
days a week for three hours at a time to hear him berate "feminazis" and
"commie symps". It is a mix of liberal-baiting, sarcasm, wit and bile that
has proved remarkably successful, allowing Republicans to dominate talk
radio since the early 90s.
Now, however, America's left is fighting back. The end of this month sees
the launch of Air America Radio: a liberal talkshow station broadcasting
initially in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and San Francisco, and aiming to
challenge Limbaugh on his own turf."
