I didn't know he was on tv, but I have heard him on the radio. I'm curious what specifically he was saying that you thought was a lie, because I've always found him to be rather well spoken and reasonable in his analysis of things. He most definitely is conservative, but why wouldn't that be allowed? We allow all sorts of left wing rants on tv with the likes of CNN & MSNBC.

Broomhead doesn't bother me as his show doesn't make any false pretense as to what his political beliefs are. He hosts a "talk" show so it's understandable that he's opinionated. I, personally, don't agree with him but I have no problem whatsoever with him on the radio or TV as his show isn't ever billed as an unbiased "news" show.

The radio host that bothers me is Jim Sharpe. Jim Sharpe hosts a "news" show on KTAR yet it's clearly a "talk" show when he delivers the "news."

He is not as conservative as i would like because he likes mccain and tries to hard to reach across the aisle with the likes of jared moppin a wanna be al sharpton.
He also has a far left co host named andrew babinski who is a liberal democrat atheist

as a conservative i do not listen to his show because it is not conservative enough for me.

There are a few buttons on your remote control that can shut him up forever! Power, channel up, channel down, source, volume down... pick one!

Oh, wait... you want to make sure that nobody else can hear what he has to say! Well, in that case, I'd suggest moving. China, North Korea, Cuba, Zimbabwe, Venezuela... they exert strict control over who gets to use the airwaves, and you can bet there'll be no "right-wing hate" spewing there!

Oh noooo, someone has different opinions than I do on television, whatever will we do. How dare they not be restricted to what I deem as their designated area for discourse?

I'm curious, is there a specific example of his lying or hate-mongering that you can quote? Or did you just one of those folks who post claims without providing your backup?


I occasionally listen to his show. My impression is completely different that yours.

Well, Hillary belongs in jail for many reasons, there are PLENTY of reasons for the general public to despiser her and her impeached, rapist husband. After all, we kept that wench out of the Oval Office for a reason!

I guess you're fine with all the "left-wing ranting" lying, hate-mongering propaganda on broadcast television? You only want the "right-wing" ranting restricted to cable and radio?

Typical of the left.
First, there is nothing so extreme from the left on broadcast television. PBS chooses subjects that are slightly left-leaning, but their coverage is fairly accurate.

Second, I've noticed that not only are the left-leaning news shows NOT hate-mongering (I'm specifying news to exempt people like Stephen Colbert who really is gleefully vicious), but the left-leaning shows tend to be far better at citing credible sources, not just spouting opinions.

there are 300 or so channels on cable that have to have something on them, 24-7, so there is no decorum or reasoning behind so many of the garbage offerrings that litters the airwaves every day..
You're missing the point. I'm talking about broadcast, not cable. And, in fact, for most television, there is some semblance of decorum.

Free speech is allowed on television - with limits - but most rational people try to steer clear of defamation.

Yes, you "kept" her out because you were gullible enough to fall for propaganda from a con man who is cited as lying on an unprecedented scale.

Thanks. The little bit I saw was just him, no co-host. Of course, one can be conservative without being hateful.

No, sorry. I was just spinning through the channels, and didn't watch for very long.

The network news is fully of hate mongering, you just don't recognize it for such because you agree with what they are saying.

And as far as sources.....they are far from credible and instead spout off nothing but failed liberal talking points.

For your opinion to have been correct it would have meant that Trump had no chance to win the election.....you aren't one of those that believe Hillary won are you......
