SUMMARY: Starts with a suggestion by "daulton" from Columbus, OH, that we write a report that talks about all the strengths of the progressive talk radio is. Uses this as starting point for an "activist opportunity analysis".
A Daily Kos diary by "daulton" from Columbus, Ohio, begins as follows:
The Center for American Progress released a 35-page report in June, full of facts, charts, and statistics incontrovertibly demonstrating:
1. 91% of commercial talk radio is right-wing.
2. Right-wing bias is directly tied to ownership; and mega-ownership = mega bias.
These are two sharp arrows in the quiver for those in D.C. arguing for ownership rules.
BUT I WANT ANOTHER STUDY for those of us in the trenches (such as at OhioMajorityRadio.com ) appealing to local station owners to carry progressive programs.
Sure, we can tell them about the unfairness--but they don’t care.
What WE need is a study that proves something else we all know; that PROGRESSIVE RADIO KICKS ASS!
I suggested contacting ePluribus Media, since the people there are experienced at writing such reports. I also posted a link to the article on the Save Boston's Progressive Talk message board.
