Radio Talk Shows

We all know that words have consequences. We have some of the most violent and hateful radio talk show programs (names like Michael Savage, Glenn Beck, Michael Reagan, Neal Boortz for example) and millions of people in the United States tune into that kind of right-wing talk radio every day. Yes our speech is protected, however to be using the public airwaves to stir up anger, greed and basic evil, is very scary. Watching the McCain/Palin rallys recently reminds me of hate radio. It feels as though a climate of intolerance and hatred is being encouraged. Let's not forget that talk(hate) radio contributed to the genocide in Rwanda. Do you have such talk shows on your side of the world David?

Here all the radio shows are bought by the President, all but one, and that hatred seems to be the only punk attitude on this country. The main problem is that the radio station is owned by the Spanish Catholic Church and that´s not the best way to believe in the...journalist. Hatred, sadly, is the engine of life.
