Talk Radio "Racist?"

Considering who was present on the stage, I'd say it wasn't "racism" that permeated "talk radio, but jealousy. Just about every name I heard bandied about concerning this "dog and pony show" was a liberal (With the possible exception of Mark Levin representing the BIGGEST talk radio host in the nation, Rush Limbaugh, who apparently wasn't invited, who was in the audience, ferGawdsake!). The writer of this article says, "By my estimation there was one conservative, one center-left moderate, and four liberals on the panel. The task was simple: to engage in a discussion of ideas as to how non-dominant voices could be used in the medium of talk radio today." Where was Rush Limbaugh? How about Sean Hannity? There are many other conservative names in talk radio whose numbers DWARF those of those present, who were not there. Were they invited, like Sharpton, and found the gathering not worth their time, or were they ignored so they could be criticized by those who can't equal their accomplishments but suggest ways to "bring them down?" Sounds like yet another liberal "dog and pony show" to make themselves seem more important than they are. (Kevin McCollough/Town Hall)
