Talkback Radio

This morning I heard an interview with Senator Nick Cherry on Radio National (Yes I'm sufficiently embarrassed that I listen to them, but we can talk about that another time). I remember him saying that "Many people have their opinions influenced by Talkback Radio", in justifying the need for the ABA to look into the 'Cash for Comment' scandal involving Telstra and Alan Jones.

I couldn't help but think of this wonderful post.

I can't listen to talkback radio. Senator Cherry believes it is an important part of democracy. I believe it is little more than a whine fest for the proletariate, give me informed commentary any day of the week.
