I’m not. He’s a foil, he’s meant to be a waste of air. He’s the punching bag for the other three commentators on the show.

Any of the regulars on network news. And any of the 'former' whatevers, turned political experts like mooch and napalitano. Their bias is so obvious. Or any 'entertainer' or athlete who thinks their profession makes them a political expert.

I pulled the plug on all of the tv conservatives in 2012. No regrets. If someone on Sigforum puts up a Tucker Carlson clip link, There is a better than average chance Of me watching it but thats about it for tv host conservatives in my book.

Regarding radio, I find Levin’s voice in insufferable. Savage is an uninteresting, self aggrandizing, RINO waste of airtime. Rush is ok for short spells. I mostly avoid radio politics.

Youtube is where I watch political commentary with Paul Joseph Watson and Blue Collar logic and Jordan Peterson. These guys have taken the place of tv and radio conservative hosts.

All of them. I don't need a pundit to tell me what my opinion is, or spin the facts for me.

I actually don't like this, I wish they'd have at least 2 libs, I want the debate. I liked Hannity when he had Colmes to debate with. Juan is a punching bag, he can't debate, not that I'd agree with him anyway, but I want the left to be exposed. I want people to hear their evil goals. I love Greg Gutfeld, he makes me laugh, I'm gonna go see him live next year probably.

ETA - Found it, his name is Richard Fowler. Apparently he's also a talk show host, but appears on Fox quite a bit. Can't stand listening to him.


Wish I could find this guy’s name. He shows up fairly regularly on Fox News discussions.

Younger black guy, short hair, round glasses. I think he worked on the Obama team for election at some point.

Always smiling and condescending. Always explains away the great economy saying that so many people are working two and three jobs to stay afloat etc.

Reading the above, it does describe a lot of the liberals that appear on Fox, so...

His show on Fox is the exact opposite persona of his radio show. You might consider checking it out.


I've caught it on the weekend after Gutfeld; his tv show is a snoozer. Gutfeld,I like.

I agree that Levin copied Savage's style. Several years ago, when he first started out on radio, Levin was never like Savage. Then, I noticed his transformation. He started screaming and yelling just like Savage. Man, it's all fake outrage. You know that Levin and Savage hate each other's gut. Or, maybe it's just all an act, too. Roll Eyes

They are all first and foremost entertainers obsessed with their own careers. To imagine that they are genuinely involved in the political struggle against the left is a delusion. Attention is the currency of their realm, and it translates directly into greenbacks via their ratings, their books, their speaking tours, their merchandise.

Some are better or worse than others, but don't trust 'em. None of them.

It’s already been said above, but I will repeat:

The Mark Levin TV show on Sunday night (Life, Liberty and Levin) is an excellent show, with Levin calmly (usually) interviewing excellent guests and giving them plenty of time to talk. He has only one or two guests the whole hour.

I strongly recommend giving it a try: DVR it, or look up the episodes on foxnews.com.

I wouldn’t have believed it myself, being unable to tolerate his screaming on the radio; but I’m really glad I gave him a try, I think you will be too.

Oh, aren't you special? Is that what you think of all the members in this thread giving actual answers? You believe that all of these members need to be told what their opinion is? Could you possibly act any more snobbish and superior? How many times do you need to get your wrist slapped for pulling shit like this in one of my threads, to finally figure out that you're not going to be allowed to get away with it? You always have to set yourself apart as superior and something special. Go ahead and call all the members in this thread dull-witted and incapable of thinking for themselves again. You're just tone-deaf enough to do it. Incredible. You miss the point of this thread entirely, fail to realize that your answer is no answer at all and therefore, you shouldn't have even posted in this thread, and you manage to sound like a fucking snob while doing it.

Anyone who wants to hear the perspective of someone else apparently needs to be told what to think, and therefore, is stupid. That's what you said to everyone in this thread, including me.

Got anything else you want to add?

Mark Levin
I love his thinking but his voice when he is in in his rant just makes me cringe.

Bitch is a NeverTrumper. Just like all other NeverTrumpers.

Noonan is my nominee, too. I quit reading/listening to her when she endorsed Obama.

Yep. Noonan swooned over Obama and I never wasted my time reading her again.

I used to listen to Sean Hannity's radio program, but one day he had some Hollywood leftist on the show and he shamelessly sucked up to them. I've never listened to him since.

The biggest disappointment for me is Bret Stephens. I used to never miss his column in the WSJ. But, he got such a bad case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that he left the Journal and went to work for the New York Times.

Levin also copied Savage's bumper rock music style.

I'm sure they hate each other's guts. Michael blew his chance by getting caught with some homophobic slur on an open mike. I think he would have hit it big were it not for that.

Another thing Levin copied from Michael was interweaving banal personal stories that made it interesting for some people. I think it worked as it provided relief from the normal fare of politics.

Michael does have a big ego but I think he had a unique perspective that was right on. I remember he would listen to some political speech and provide commentary over it. After a couple of times, I found it was annoying. So I switched to another station broadcasting the same thing. As I was listening, i started wondering what Michael would be talking over it with so I switched back.

Another person I don't care to listen to is TUcker. He's just a rude ass.

Yeah, I agree. I will never forget when before the election, her and that pretty blonde who is pretty much a regular on The Five, went on Fox condemning Trump. There were a couple of guys from the National Review as well.

The gals have obviously since recanted their views now but it still leaves a bitter taste in my mouth when I see them.

I like Mark Levin's views and I can stand to learn a lot from him..........[insert shouting Levin voice here] WHEN HE'S NOT SCREAMING AND HAVING A THERMONUCLEAR MELTDOWN WITH HIS NASALY VOICE AND GIVING ME A HEADACHE WITH HIS INCESSANT RANTING!!!![shout off]

I actually enjoy the Levin show when Dan Bongino is filling in

I like Hannity as a person and his views but as one poster said earlier, if you listen to one show, you're good for a month or more because it's on repeat every day.

Tried listening to Michael Savage once and didn't make it through one episode. I turned it off.

I never really listened to Glenn Beck but I'll probably never give him a chance after his complete mental breakdown during the last election.
