5 Feet of Fury

No Talk Radio Watch column this week, but…

There are some good newsbites about conservative talk radio at week’s end, via Talkers Magazine, including a concerning new hire at the FCC, and reports of “shots fired” at Lou Dobb’s house (?!)

Mark Steyn, Jonah Goldberg and Jay Nordlinger will be on the James Allen Show this Saturday, 8PM (MST) (There’s a free podcast you can subscribe to.)

PLUS:

Yesterday, Glenn Beck focused on the threats to free speech under the Obama administration, beginning as early as the Obama campaign. (You may remember Obama supporters’ attempts to make criticism of the candidate illegal…)

Here’s part one. The rest of the clips are up at YouTube as well, labeled “B”, “C” etc.

Yes, Glenn Beck is a carnival barker.

BUT: would you sit still for a straight “60 Minutes” type expose about this stuff, which requires keeping track of dozens of previously unknown Democratic insiders and obscure acronyms?

Have you ever thought that those boring straight “investigative reports” exist only for the sake of self-satisfied “hero” journalists on the liberal side?

And that they criticize Beck’s “outrageous” “unprofessional” presentations because they are the first things to threaten their stranglehold on the public mind to come along in a long time?
