So none of those things happened? Talk Radio addressed all of those issues? Good for them. I missed it because I am one of those greedy people that works during the day so I can get stuff. My "white privilege", you know.
Talk radio is a natural outgrowth of a mainstream media and and education establishment with an obvious agenda. 
Haycox's sorry opinion piece on the electoral college the other day was a prime example. That guy is supposedly some kind of esteemed professor and the entire gist of his article was that we are a direct democracy, or should be, much like the ancient Greeks. Our system has all kinds of built in filters to prevent mob rule and that is a good thing.
I do tune in to MSNBC et al to see what kind of obfuscation and deflection that they are doling out. I read this news outlet, don't I? I even check out Politico on occasion. That takes a strong stomach. 
What folks on your side can't handle is that you are no longer dictating the premise of each issue  anymore.
