    Fascinating bit that.

    age=education generally, and Rush Limbaugh has an older demographic that is predominantly male.

    Since males tend to follow "hard news" (aka non-fluff) this is unsurprising.

    I would further point out that People who watch Fox "News" tend to be the least educated and least informed.

    NPR, one of my favorites, is pretty high up there, as is the Daily Show.

    Not surprising at all considering older men who tend to like politics also tend to be more conservative, although I would argue that Limpballs hardly represents true conservative values. Also, most men are busy working, so they don't have time to dig into political issues, and are more likely to fall for the spin from Limpballs and other wingnut talkshow hosts. Case in point - gtown.

    Daily show means very little.


    College students watch comedy. If Family Guy was considered a political show would it be in the same boat? Its scary that students who never read a paper and pick and choose what news content they get (anyone who gets there news soley from the internet is narrow minded to some extent) are shaped by a guy who uses a very easily followed gimmick to get laughs.



    Liberals tend to view both NPR and Daily Show as unbiased, middle of the road views. MOTR people tend to view them as liberal.

    I know NPR is liberal, as is the Daily Show. They are also both better at actually informing about things than most talking heads on the right that are more concerned with pumping up their own egos and demogogery than anything else.

    I do watch right-wing stuff and see something newsworthy on occasion, but it is like fishing around in a sewer with ones bare hands for a gold ring.

    I would be very interested to see a side by side comparison of a hundred hours of NPR and a hundred hours of Rush Limbaugh. I would be willing to bet that after all is said and done, NPR would be the hands-down winner in terms of amount of information related.

    Yep, I think the BBC takes the reward for most liberal. NPR is rather moderate.

    Worthless source of info if its slanted. Its no wonder that it takes the rest of our lives of real world experiences to undo liberal college ideals pumped into the youth.

    I listen to NPR pretty frequently and the only time I really notice a liberal bias is when they have listeners call in.

    Anyway, while the Limbaugh audience may be knowledgeable as a whole, I would guess that anyone who listens to the show as their sole source of "News" is probably doing nothing to help the average intelligence of the listenership... and that goes for anyone who thinks the Daily Show is a good source for News as well.
