College-radio sounding. Is the host on NPR?

But just my opinion.

2. It's adding variety at least.
If it was all liberal politics all day it would get boring too.

9. Well, it's just a news-type show.
I think it's designed to be un-flashy.

10. In the opening moments I thought it was going to be more of a
"review" of how stories were being reported in the media....pointing out spin.

I listened to only the first part before I had to do dinner...and it got into the discussion about Falujah and the fallout with Wm Pitt. He was fine, but it became sort of "deep"....not bad, but I was hoping they'd do something more lik a "media watch" type of show......Hey, didn't I do one of those (in writing) a while back??????????

That's what I want...a shootdown of the media.....like a F.A.I.R. on the air....

11. Randi Rhodes is loud and obnoxious...
...but Franken is OK so far. If it ends up being too much of Randi ravings and not enough content, I will stick to Pacifica Radio. Five minutes of Ms. Rhodes was more than I could take. Yuck.

12. yeah, she isn't for everyone...
..but she fits for the ones who are tired of mundane monotone Pacifica/NPR style commentary - which is why she's #1 in her market.
