I don't listen to any show in which a host dominates a conversation and or blathers on for an entire block about his or her beliefs.

NPR, BBC, Sky News ( yes, I know it's online TV on this side of the Pond), and Euromaidan, for from the trenches news from Ukraine and insight on Russia. Occasionally RT (again, online) to see what Putin's twist may be. ABC evening news, which comes in better than NBC or CBS on my antenna TV.

I also use Drudge for quick access to lots of news sources.

These guys i listen because they compare history. They give details instead of hearing, RACIST and all that crap. And they always dig up dirt on both parties and then they explain why what happening behind the scenes.

Michael Savage most the time. Can't agree with sometimes
Michael Savage i couldn't stop listening about the Trayvon Martin case.
-Laura Ingram. Sounds like s msn sometimes
Infowars- would rather watch this than fox news, cnn and msnbc. Alex Jones i ignore the tantrums.
I listen to radio for solid information, not for laughs. I love Brian Lehrer.

And I think Alex Jones is certifiable.

NPR 88.5 KQED. I don't listen to any other radio.

I get my news from other places, too, though.

If I listen to any talk radio, it's NPR. I'm not a huge fan of talk radio though unless I'm just tired of listening to music.

Executive Session with Craig Kopp. brand new show. Seems to be normal, on a far left radio station

The Mike Gallagher Show, love the debates with callers.

The Schnitt Show with Todd Schnitt. He always finds something to discuss.

While I do believe in Conservatism, shows like RUSH and BECK are just plain boring. There is no debates with callers and all these 2 radio guys talk about is Political History.

Please bring back More On Trivia in the fall.

How elitist of you.
People who listen to the radio are clearly ON AVERAGE, more intelligent and informed than the average citizen. Food for thought.
