THAT'S your evidence? rofllol

850KOA is called News radio instead of conservative radio.

That must mean they're ashamed of being labeled as conservative.

850KOA has a lot more than political talk...760 is pure politics other than infomercials.

I haven't heard any Dems lately call themselves proud liberals other than O'Donnel and he doesn't need to run for re-election.
Actually KOA's Fox News calls themselves "Fair & Balanced" at the top of the hour broadcasts.

I love my "progressive" coworkers sports fans who are so conflicted, they want to listen to the Rockies and the Broncos but can't stand to support the evil KOA.

Yeah, they interrupt for sports. But the majority of their daily programming is conservative talk shows.

"Fair and balanced"?? Please feel free topoint out any liberal talk shows on KOA that balance the full bore conservative ones.

Liberal talk radio just doesn't work because liberals don't sit around every day glued to the radio to learn what they should be outraged about. Same goes for liberal TV. They're money losers.

Conservative radio makes money and that's why I think KOA is so big on it. I don't think it is more than that.

IF BY A “LIBERAL” THEY MEAN SOMEONE WHO LOOKS AHEAD AND NOT BEHIND, SOMEONE WHO WELCOMES NEW IDEAS WITHOUT RIGID REACTIONS, SOMEONE WHO CARES ABOUT THE WELFARE OF THE PEOPLE — THEIR HEALTH, THEIR HOUSING, THEIR SCHOOLS, THEIR JOBS, THEIR CIVIL RIGHTS AND THEIR CIVIL LIBERTIES ... IF THAT IS WHAT THEY MEAN BY A “LIBERAL,” THEN I’M PROUD TO SAY I’M A “LIBERAL.” – SENATOR JOHN F. KENNEDY 9/14/1960 NEW YORK LIBERAL PARTY NOMINATION ACCEPTANCE SPEECH

Balance out? That is what 760AM is for.

BTW, before the Clear Channel days, KOA actually did have more of a liberal bent with Alan Berg and others.
And the afternoon sports/potpourri show is pretty politically neutral. And the morning show is fairly neutral too.
Nine hours of conservative talk, Brown, Rush, & Rosen, but the overnight stuff is also fairly neutral.

My point is that they don't just have conservative talk shows:

3am-5am
The Wall Street Journal This Morning

5am-9am
Colorado's Morning News

9am-12pm
The Mike Rosen Show

12pm-3pm
Rush Limbaugh

3pm-7pm
The Dave Logan Show

Then there's the Gabby Gourmet, a car talk show, a home improvement show, and I think theres still a computer tech show.

So there's Rosen and Limbaugh for 6 hours of the day...hardly a full on partisan channel like 760. I listen to both btw.

Thanks, CB. I concede the point.

Edited to add: About KOA

Well, THIS LIBERAL has no problem with it... :thumbsup:

You forgot "flaming" or "extreme" before liberal.
