Kubla Con	Listen to Millhouse's nightly message on MSNBC Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Steve C	No, I don't fear him...the only people that believe his dribble already have a lot of hatred and bigotry in their hearts to begin with. He does not appeal to educated people. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

J P	Yes, I hate intolerance, name calling, demagogues, and simplistic, bumper-sticker answers to complex questions. That's why I come here instead of listening to the radio. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

john doe	they are retards,just for entertanment only.... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Pat K	I stopped listening to these talk-show extremists long ago. They have little interest in the facts, and no interest in giving a balanced view of an issue. They take an extreme position and harp on it in order to entertain and maintain their audience. It isn't news, its editorializing in the extreme. Shouting, demeaning, and pummeling the opposition is their modus operandi. It troubles me that the faithful listen, reinforce these views by talking among themselves, and do not examine the complexity of the issues. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Charles1667	I agree Limbaugh and Hannity are the worst I don't understand how people agree with them or listen to them. They have such narrow viewpoints on every issue. If they were in charge our society would be doomed! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

grumpyoldman	The only people that listen to the idiot are people that are just like him. They love his BS. The rest don't listen, so we don't fear him. The only thing he is accomplishing is causing his cult to lose Friends by repeating his hate spewing. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

honeybeejim	i love talk radio i seem to learn things that the news media cant or wont talk about. When i have a station on that i don't like i just change the channel.Seems you have a ha-t on for Rush hey if you don't like him go to another station! Or do you just want him off the air ? Remember hate is stronger then love. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ohiofirefighter42	I dont fear them at all....the only people who listen to them are people that need someone to them them what their opinion should be Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Roseby	Actually, I fear the people who rever Limbaugh as a god. Normal people know he's a hot air bag-waste of air space. But there are Kooks out there who follow him like religion. Now that my friend, scares the bejesus outta me. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

#1con	I totally agree. Bill O'Rilley is the worst. If you don't agree with him, your a cool aid drinker. Who are the real cool aid drinkers? The ones who think for themselves, and ask questions, or the ones who follow and agree with these talk show hosts just because they have the same politics. They are for freedom of speech, as long as you agree with them. I am a total right wing conservative, and I am fed up with these clowns telling me what I should think and believe. I'm a great American. I don't need Hannity to tell me I am! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

xuserx2000	he's a shock jock.... no it isn't news. his job is to piss you off, so you will listen... people love to hate him. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

raichasays	I don't fear them. In a society with free speech, Rush can say pretty much anything he wants. If you oppose his views, you are free to express yourself as well, just as you are doing here. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

rwcrufler	Libs have such thin skin.... If you want a dose of irrational name calling hatred try Air America. More people listen to Rush than any other show, myself included. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Becca the Tea Lady	Well..... I listen sometimes to get facts and make my own assessment. Hopefully people that do listen can sort the cr** just like you have to with ABC,NBC,and CBS. I do not get Rush on my radio but I do listen to KSEV 700 in Texas and it is quite informational and callers have there say but usually the ones that are totally of the wall frustrate the hosts and they really do not have time for their idiocy. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

MRJS	The good news is that for every talk show host opinion there exists a powerfully opposite opinion. We used to have objective journalism. Now we have subjective journalism. I'm not worried about the journalists so much as the average citizen. I'm finding that EVERYBODY wants to talk and NOBODY wants to listen. People have forgotten the difference between a dialogue and a monologue. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

HeadLiner	most fans of talk radio are empty headed, gullible individuals that are looking for a cult to practice Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tony K	Its not about being a bigot or hatred. Its about right and wrong. With out these voices out there, the majority of truth loving patriotic Americans, wouldn't have a voice. God knows the main stream media wouldn't tell you the story. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Texican	I have never heard Rush go off on someone who called in. In fact, of all the talk radio hosts, he is the most tolerate and reasonable in dealing with folks who have differing views. Just try calling into Air America (leftist radio, if it's still up) with differing views and you'll get fried. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

The Thing	You made a decision about all talk radio by "flipping through" and listening to one call on one show? Doesn't sound too tolerant to me. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sparhawk7322	Why not say what the positions were by each and let us judge it on its merits. By the way Rush's show isn't news it's a political commentary show. If you don't like it don't listen. I find that works for me. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

David W	you all must not be listening to talk radio- its informative - usually talks about things which are on the news- I have done alot of research on what they talk about and they are much more accurate then the News will ever be- as for fear their messages and talking about hate speech. I listen to many different ones - and also NPR - i like to get a big view of the entire picture from both sides- I have never heard hate speach. Its their right to voice their opinion. I would begin fearing it when they are forced to be silent. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
