Conservative Talk Radio Recap: Oct 12-16

by Kathy Shaidle | October 17, 2009 10:42 am

My latest roundup of conservative talk radio highlights — including FREE audio and video clips — is now up at WND[1].

Needless to say, the Rush Limbaugh/NFL saga is a big part of it, and after deadline, there’ve been more developments. Rush Limbaugh tells his side of the story[2] at the Wall Street Journal today, while his African-American call screener, “Bo Snerdly,” has some choice words[3] for everyone who smeared his boss.

* Mark Steyn talked to Hugh Hewitt[4] about Rush[5] and other stuff; Steyn also spent an hour on Frank Gaffney’s newish (and free to listen to) podcast, [6]which he may want to rename Fan Boy Radio. (In fairness: Steyn has that effect on women, too…)

* There’s nothing like Laura Ingraham when she gets really wound up about something. This week, it was the media’s coverage of Balloon Boy. (FREE audio[7].)

* Dennis Miller had another great week. Alas: audio archives are available to premium members only[8]. (As are Dennis Prager’s and Hugh Hewitt’s now). However, he had his first column in the Washington Examiner,[9] and it’s a goody.

PLUS: “Kansas City needs Fred Thompson”[10] — and SNL needs… Glenn Beck?[11]

(Kathy Shaidle blogs at FiveFeetOfFury[12], now in its ninth year. Among other things, she runs a web site devoted to conservative talk radio.)
