like I said been there many times and have friends and relatives there. And I like listening to the likes of Rush and O'Reilly as well. And guess what they are incredibly popular over there. And why is it? Because they peddle the ignorance most Americans see as the truth. Those are the facts.

Have a watch of this radio host being an "expert" on Hardball. I suppose at least we should be thankful that the host knows a bit.

Everyone else can watch it for a laugh.

Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Lielly are hated by the majority of Americans. Talk radio is owned and dominated by the Right wing, even though it's changed a bit thanks to Air America Radio.

Bill O'Lielly's demographic is 80 to dead. He gets 1% of the American viewership. Keith Olbermann beats him in the 25-40 demographic, and people like Rachel Maddow are beating even the likes of Larry King. O'Lielly is porn to Conservatives. The entire Fox News Network is a 24/4 propaganda channel, run by Roger Ailes (Nixon's henchman), and Rupert Murdoch (the biggest threat to Western democracy in the last 3 decades).

There is the same level of whack jobs in Britain. BNP anyone?

America has millions of voices. I think you need to stop talking about a country which you obviously have no clue about.
