Delete

 * 1) So how missional is this guy? I don't really see anything missional in the current page... Carpetsmoker (talk) 00:01, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) Delete, but merge relevant content into Liberal talk radio. —Cosmikdebris (talk) 02:13, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * 3) Delete. Hardly anything to point out. Contractor (talk) 18:52, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Merge/redirect

 * 1) Merge and redirect to Liberal talk radio if he's of relevance - David Gerard (talk) 13:58, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * 2) Agree with DG. --Castaigne2 (talk) 15:11, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

 * The reason the article exists appears to be "He is the first liberal talk radio host to attain a national audience on a par with right-wing talkers like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, and Michael Savage." You're in NL and I'm in the UK ... can an American weigh in on how relevant this guy is? - David Gerard (talk) 00:39, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Never heard of him. But I'd never heard of Alex Jones before, either. 00:52, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * He was fun to watch on MSNBC while he was there. His evening time slot may have been filled by Al Sharpton, whom I avoid listening to. Chris Hayes, Rachel Maddow, and Lawrence O'Donnell don't fulminate quite so much, but are still worth watching more often than not. Über-fulminator Keith Olbermann is, of course, now among the missing from that channel. Alec Sanderson (talk) 01:26, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Liberal talk radio has completely imploded here in North America. It became completely irrelevant several years ago except for disjointed pockets. I suppose there are still places where you can hear it on the radio, like the west coast, but it's gone here in the Washington DC metro area, except for our local Pacifica Radio outlet, which is more focused on local issues. There is no national liberal radio of any kind in the U.S. any more, when compared with the likes of Cumulus, Cheap Channel (now iHeartRadio), and Salem, which are apparently still making some money from a slowly aging old fart listenership that likes to hear right wing blather ad nauseum. It's not surprising that the noted personalities of liberal radio a few years ago, like Ed Schultz, have completely disappeared from the scene. —Cosmikdebris (talk) 02:34, 25 December 2015 (UTC)
