5/3/07: Talk Radio

By Doug Fabrizio

Salt Lake City, UT – This week's smackdown between Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson and radio host Sean Hannity has offered as much hype as you would ever want in this state. And like it or not, all this buzz is a credit to the popularity or infamy of conservative talk radio. Thursday on RadioWest, we're tracing the history and the emergence of the genre that made people like Hannity and Limbaugh influential in the realms of politics and discourse. Also, we'll hear from at least one of the players in Friday's spectacle. Mayor Rocky Anderson will join us to explain what he's expecting from the evening, and what he hopes to accomplish.
