9. I listen to FM in the morning

I listen to Preston and Steve as well as Elvis Duran. They don't tend to get too political, but seem to lean more left when they do discuss it. Steve of Preston and Steve is a Republican and Conservative, I believe, but not at all asshole about it.

AM radio on the other hand....Sweet Jesus Mercy. We have 1210AM aka The Big Talker and it is loaded with local RW yahoos like Dom Giardano (probably botched the spelling) and national names such as Rush. They got rid of Rush on this station over a year ago after the Sandra Fluke incident. They just picked him up again a few weeks ago. So sad. They play Michael Smerconish, who is sometimes center, sometimes left, annoyingly sometimes right - he can never figure it out and doesn't fight back against RW crazies on his show. They also play that dreadful Dick Morris. Another local guy is conservative Gary R'Nel, who sometimes says something sensible and doesn't always tow the RW line. For a while, they had a balance of more left leaning programming, but they have really done away with that as of late.
