"Perhaps one reason that right-wing talk shows are more popular than left-wing ones [...] is that right-wing beliefs conflict with reality, so that right-wingers require like-minded talk shows to reinforce their beliefs in the face of contradictory facts. Left-wingers, holding beliefs consistent with reality, do not need talk shows to reinforce their beliefs." -- [info] patoadam, 2007-09-04
