[QUOTE "Because Bill Bennett, conservative, waxed him. Bill started his new radio show less than a year ago and is now heard on hundreds of radio stations while Ed is still scraping by on a hundred.[QUOTE]
Jeff, you obviously don't know what you are talking about. Bennett's show launched in April, 2004. 15 1/2 months makes it WELL OVER a year old! Bennett is on ONLY 115 Reich-wing stations That's a long way from "HUNDREDS" !
Salem Radio You are attempting to compare a loaded Mercedes to a stipped down Chevy.
Bennett was recruited to appear on Salem network, which has been a Reich-wing wacko syndicator for years. Salem has over 1500 affliates. Salem OWNS over 90 stations. He replaced another Salem talker (sorry, I forget who) because he was a high profile political mover & shaker (thanks to foxhole news) among the Neo & Theo-cons. He launched about 14 months after he was exposed as a high stakes gambler. Nothing the relgious right likes more than redeemed and reformed whores.
Five directors of Salem Communications Company are or have been officers and directors of CNP (The Council for National Policy is a secretive forum, formed in 1981, for leading US conservative political leaders, financiers and religious right activist leaders.) Salem also carries, The Mike Gallagher Show, , The Dennis Prager Show, The Michael Medved Show, The Hugh Hewitt Show. They even have Rapture wacko Janet Parshall on well over a 100 stations. Even J. Kenneth Blackwell, Ohio's Secretary of State, (who stole the election for Bush) isa contributing commentator delivers commentaries on more than 90 Salem radio stations. And Bennett can still only get on 115 stations!!!
Bennett's numbers on this propaganda POS network doesn't impress me!
Remember there are many fewer Mercedes dealers than Chevy Dealers.
