Conservative punditocracy

Filed under: Politics — landgazr @ 3:17 am

Conservatives really have their act together, don’t they? Each one of the right-wing planks have at least one staunch advocate in the blogosphere, print or radio. I think of it like a baseball team, each one playing their position:

Richard Mellon Scaife/Sun Myung Moon - co-owners

Coach - Ann Coulter 

Hollywood - Michael Medved

Higher education - David Horowitz

Courts - Mark Levin

Iraq & Patriotism - Sean Hannity

Blacks and their victim mentality - Larry Elder

Bias in the MSM - Brent Bozell

Mike Gallagher is the batboy ) It’s no conspiracy, but each of the conservative talking points are well-represented with their respective advocates and detractors. Progressives are on the little dinghy that is Air America (and maybe NPR but I don’t listen to it often). Is it the free market that saturates the airwaves with conservatives? I once e-mailed Bob Miller of KPAM, a local AM talker, and he said people just like conservatives more. True? Time to bring back the Fairness Doctrine? Would it be used to squash conservative talkers, or is that a canard? Hmm…
