    On take-away here is that TV right-wingers are all pretty cynical (like Tucker they'll flirt with anti-vax and get their shots in secret). The radio guys are the true believers. They got high on their own supply.https://twitter.com/farhip/status/1437577361038454786 …

    This is the fifth conservative radio host to die of covid in the past six weeks. All had spoken against vaccination, though several changed their minds in their final days. (H/t: ⁦⁦@30piecesofsilve⁩). https://www.denverpost.com/2021/09/13/bob-enyart-dies-covid-19/ …

        I worked in radio for 24 years. You are correct. They believe their own bs.

        Nah, there are just many many many more radio hosts at the lowest levels of the pyramid of lies. I bet some of the OAN “talent” us unvaccinated. But every tiny town has a local right wing radio host. We’re seeing statistics in action.

        Maybe there is a hierarchy of broadcast sheepdom. The TV people are vainer and feel they have career options beyond whatever they are doing at the time. The radio people follow TV's lead with the hope of gaining larger audience, influence, $, respect. But generally are followers
