Talk radio is utter garbage... except for Elliot in the Morning. He actually has celebrities on his show I want to hear from (athletes ranging from clinton portis to various hockey players, musicians, etc). Everything else around here like John Boy and Billy (gay redneck bullshit. awful humor). The super lame Bob and Tom show on what they call our classic rock station. In general I find Harrisonburg radio shitty because A) I can't get dc101 across the mountains and B) Everything else is ------- garbage.

Oh yeah, I don't listen to political radio or npr. I like my dc101 and that's it.

Sean Hannity only appears to be educated to people who have no formal education. All TV news casters and political hosts are complete tools and know how to exploit their audience. It has nothing to do with educating you, or stimulating you mentally getting you to think. It's about riling you up and feeding you whatever ideology they bind themselves to using the most ridiculous fallacies they can produce.

Example of the most disgusting, anti-intelectual trash I've ever seen in my life.

Contrasted to Edward Said speaking himself on Charlie Rose without the misguided, hype trash bullshit you see on TV.

They insult the true scholars and intellectuals then replace logic and reasonable, productive debate with fictitious nonsense to debase and control their audience.

Sensationalized media made possible by rhetoric and charisma, a bad combination.

scholars and "intellectuals" are worthless people

a formal education only means you've been indoctrinated into the current way of thinking. how can someone claim to be intelligent when they rely on someone else to tell them whats right?

most of the brightest people to ever walk the earth had no formal education.


if you want to argue against the fact that the majority of foreign studies and poly sci professors are anti-american you will lose.

That's the most unintelligent thing you've ever said, hands down. And you've said a lot of retarded ----.

That's absolutely brilliant, you'd never learn anything about that in college No one would ever come up with that angle of argument, it's just so astounding that I bet no one's ever written about it before and I bet it's never been subject to , i don't know, lets say thousands of years of writing and thought.

You are not indoctrinated into the 'current way of thinking', you are encouraged to develop your own way of thinking and develop your cognitive skills as a person to be able to come to your own conclusions. To be a person who produces thought, who stimulates discussion, who helps develop the world through education and progress. You learn how to analyze the current ideologies, you learn about the old ideologies and their justifications for existence, you learn about the new ideologies and their justification for existence, you learn about so much ---- you cant just bag it up and say professors are full of ----. Academia is the grounds that the news media can not ------- touch and that is why they try to discredit it on television.

I'm sure a majority of professors do express some anti-American sentiment. For example, Stanley Kultz, the guy you're agreeing with in the video happens to be a professor. He has a Ph.D in sociological anthropology from Harvard and he also happens to be a huge advocate for Zionism and Neoconservativism. Which are both completely anti-American in nature. It looks like academia completely brainwashed him and now he's not able to come to his own conclusions after reading all of that literature..

I'd also like to see some examples of these 'brightest people'. Especially those people who have done work in the social sciences or humanities without having being educated, or participating in some sort of academic forum or some kind. Which in it's self is a type of formal education.

Do you honestly think before you spew out this type op garbage?

Rawr pretty much summed it up.

Talk radio is worthless trash. It honestly reminds me of the likes Ricki Lake or some other trashy worthless talk show.

People with good grammar and spelling scare me, too.

Just buy more guns, and keep voting two party. It'll be okay.
