I don't care for anything with an agenda, be it conservative or liberal or
anything in between or right or left of either.
I like my toast the same way - made from pure ground wheat, unbleached and
unsweetened.

I find that I listen almost exclusively to not-for-profit radio......of
course I don't give money so I'm almost a scab....luckily my significant
other does support local radio....so I'm just a free loader of sorts (though
it may be money I made ) :-)

Of course my radio listening has been dented since I got an iPod and can
deafen myself to Queens of the Stone Age and Nine Inch Nails and then relax
with some Lloyd Cole or get groovey with T-Rex or serious with Neil Young,
or miserable with the Smiths, or just rocking with Led Zep.....I can relive
many lifetimes all at once and not have to listen to anyone talk...it's
great
