All of the right wing talk radio is like that.

This is one thing about our culture that has manifested itself the past couple of decades - the capturing of much of AM radio stations (not otherwise dedicated to traffic or sports) by Clear Channel, Salem, and the like. And yes, Romney has ties to that that, being that Bain eventually became involved in Clear Channel.

As for cable TV, while Fox News may boast of their bigger viewership than CNN or MSNBC, it ought to be remembered that there are so many cable channels that when one company becomes a monopoly (as Fox News has with wingnuttery) those other outlets that are competing against each other for the rest of the audience will just end up with smaller pieces of the pie.

Yet FoxNews faithful viewership is still only about 1% of the US population, smaller than the sum of the hate radio listeners (though there is clearly an overlap.)
