Glenn Beck seems to be crying and reading poetry right now? I'm AM dial flipping to get a sense of right wing talk reaction. Laura Ingraham threw Romney under the bus as a terrible candidate and is going to teach the GOP what real conservatism is. The local yacker had the most grounded reaction to his crybaby doom-and-gloom callers, suck it up and move on.

So the latest thing around my right-wing dominated workplace is a 30 minute YouTube video on the "Sandy Hook Conspiracy" where I guess the conclusion is it's all a plot for Obama to take ARE GUNS or something. The only point they seem to harp on is the gun claimed to be used in the shooting is shown in a video being pulled out of a car trunk. I'm sure it's all bullshit and I'm sure not watching it but has anyone else heard about/seen this? It's taken as fact around here and I just don't know enough (or care) to rebut.

Your workplace is actually pretty slow on the lunatic conspiracy uptake. Maybe they've been talking about it longer among themselves, somehow it slipped out today at lunch. I'm sorta persona non grata in many political conversations here since I don't toe whatever line is being fed to them by AM Radio and Fox News. I purified my Facebook wall last summer when the election ratcheted up so guess I missed this YouTube video there too. I'm use to the Limbaugh/Hannity type stuff in my office, not so much the Alex Jones level of crap I heard today.

Vertical Lime posted:On a related note, I heard their co-owned right wing talk station in DC was singled out by the company for under-performing even though they did make the FM switch. You can only put up with hearing the same viewpoints for so long. Yep WMAL moved to a FM simulcast over a year ago and the ratings overall since then have gone DOWN. Maybe there's the slightest chance the demos improved but when the overall audience goes down when moving to a better signal and medium maybe they should reconsider what they're doing.

Install Gentoo posted:There's also that you can receive a basic AM station a lot further and more consistently in a service area then FM, and I'd bet a lot of the "move the talker to FM" things end up with having less reception in the given radio market. In a perfect situation you're right. But AM suffers terribly from interference indoors (electronic gadget noise) and poorer AM radios if a radio even has AM. Also ratings only matter in the home market, not if a AM signal can be picked up 100 miles away on the eastern shore (using WMAL-AM). WMAL-FM made the station easier to find and hear overall in the DC market and the ratings went down. WTOP did this, moving from a strong AM signal to FM signal, and their ratings went way up. So not a signal issue, totally programming problems. Maybe government employees don't want to listen to a station totally poo poo on them 24/7 ? Edit: 20 minutes into Limbaugh's Moo-chelle rant ...

In DC Pacifica's WPFW is the only station doing real jazz so very thankful it exists. 3 months ago the station almost dropped afternoon music programming for NPR talk shows but the backlash stopped that. It really was unnecessary since WAMU has the NPR news/talk thing down 24/7. Houston's KPFT is the only station I know of that has actually been bombed, twice! Reading the wiki page there has been other attacks also, even recently. Not sure why I'm surprised a leftist media outlet gets physically attacked in Texas. I've not heard of any leftists physically attacking right-wing radio, a few years ago I did hear about environmentalists knocking down some towers for a AM sports-talker. They didn't hate the programming; just the destroyed land and I suppose radiation.

Also the ClearChannel channels are getting dropped next month, so that wipes out like 2-3 channels of right wing gasbags!

Not quite right wing media per say, but I'm on vacation staying with the in-laws and they must have CNN on anytime possible. Piers Morgan is on with the typical panel setup complete with Grover Norquist. My wife is almost having an aneurysm listening to the crap CNN is letting him spew without question it seems for "fairness" and all my in-laws give to her is "this is what it means to be fair and balanced". Generally the in-laws votes democratic and blame this shutdown on the GOP, I guess we're just disturbed that listening to outright lies on basic facts is their view of balanced. Either they have more wisdom then us or they really believe the GOP has the slightest point in all this. gently caress CNN is horrible, I'd almost rather watch Fox News which is almost comical at this point then this mass perceived "balanced" news channel that balances poo poo with facts. None of this surprises me, just venting I guess. It needs to stop raining here.

To understand the other political view I tried to only follow conservative media for a few days. I did Fox News or Fox Business on TV, a few right wing talk stations on radio, and popular right wing websites. I remember half a day into it the feeling of negativity and despair influencing me despite knowing most of it is bullshit. I gave up into the second day because it was actually making me irate in general. It was a slow time so it was only Benghazi and Obamacare on repeat. I hope I don't get that angry when I'm old to find this stuff enjoyable, ugh.
