'Squander the potential': Dems told they're wasting vital chance to rebuild voter base

Raw Story  

Donald Trump's election win underscored the need for Democrats to boost their messaging to voters who don't necessarily tune into political coverage — and a media expert is offering a strategy for doing that.

The secret weapon Republicans use to win elections

Raw Story  

After Ronald Reagan struck down the Fairness Doctrine and the Equal Time Rule, Republican money men got the memo. The billionaire leaned back in his chair, took a deep breath, tented his fingers in front of his mouth, and then said, carefully but emphatically: “I’ll never put anybody on my air who wants to raise my taxes.” A few years …

"It's been a life-changing experience for me": How a play about drinking helped Andre Royo get sober

Salon  

Television and movies have a bad habit of portraying addicts as toothless, run-down, bent-over stragglers who can barely walk and communicate. I'm thinking to myself, "I'm going to get f**ked up and I'm on a one way ticket," like "Leaving Las Vegas." "I'm a year and eight months sober now, but in my relationship with alcohol, I felt like I've …

Rush Limbaugh, US talk-radio's Conservative provocateur, dies of cancer at 70

Firstpost  

Last month, Limbaugh tried to minimise Donald Trump’s influence on his supporters who had attacked the US Capitol, saying that Democrats are ’lying' Rush Limbaugh, the right-wing radio megastar whose slashing, divisive style of mockery and grievance reshaped American conservatism, denigrating Democrats, environmentalists, “feminazis” and other liberals while presaging the rise of Donald Trump, died Wednesday at his home in …

The Armies: A high-leverage loss, radio wars and the Jake Virtanen thing

New York Times  

It was a swing game, a significant one. The second line with Virtanen at right wing drove play extraordinarily effectively, Virtanen drew the penalty that led to Tyler Toffoli’s game-tying power-play goal and he set up Pearson’s go-ahead goal with a well-placed shot at Kuemper’s far pad on the rush: Virtanen in transition and Pearson on the doorstep as the …
