This stems from a very fruitful discussion elsewhere on the role of right wing shout-show radio, its impact, history, future, etc.

The power elite of the RW, finding its radio listenership declining, and its influence in jeopardy, has decided to jump ship to the bottom-feeders of cable T.V., while it's still time, and blow its bowels there. We'll have to put up with that for a while, until someone finds a viable bidness model by which sewer holes are mass flushed on the Inner Tubes.
