Politics is developing more comedians than radio ever did.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Politics has become entertainment.
Well, a lot of politics is communicating with people, and obviously comedy has something to do with that. I've been a producer and led people. Also, being a comedian, you're under pressure.
Talk radio doesn't need to be political.
For years everyone looked toward the demise of radio when television came along. Before that, they thought talking movies might eliminate radio as well. But radio just keeps getting stronger.
I don't consider myself a political comedian because it's so hard. It takes time away from me saying terrible things about TV.
It's up to comedians to shine the light on what's wrong in the world, and we don't want things swept under the rug.
I think that humor has become a principle means of communication among Americans about politics.
The reason that conservative talk radio works is because there is an audience for it.
Conservative talk radio works because there are lots of conservatives who are convinced that they are not getting the whole story from the regular media.
Everything is changing. People are taking their comedians seriously and the politicians as a joke.
