  • Why do so many conservative whackos have their own radio talk show?

    and more importantly why don't I have a radio talk show? I'm a libertarian whacko. We need more of those type of talk shows. I wonder what it would take to create talk show. I suppose it would take listeners, which wouldn't be easy.

    I want my own talkshow.

    It would be so interesting!

        Diss, it's a strategy the media employs to counter the constant bleating of the right wing about the liberal bias of the media.

        God only knows how liberally biased CNN is. They openly cheer for war and mock the anti-war Euro countries while their viewing audience is far less convinced...

          It would be more along the lines of "Why Linux sucks" and "Why Mac sucks", leaving the conclusion of "Why Microsoft is so great" to process of elimination.

              And whenever ratings would suffer I'd jump into an interesting discussion on quaternions, vectors, matrices, and vertex shaders.

                because of liberal media bias...

                  Quaternions?

                  Good stuff. What do you use them for? I imagine they could represent rotations fairly easily...

                    Yeah, mostly in 3D rotations. They are better than 3x3 rotation matricies 'cause they require much less storage (4 floating points vs 9) and some other reasons.

                      Of course. For 2d rotation you would represent with 2X2 rotation matrix

                      Ummm...for 3X3 matrix wouldn't you only require 6 points? The rest are mandated by requirement that it actually represent a rotation...

                        The computer still requires all 9 data values of the 3x3 matrix to be filled with some number, whether they're used or not.

                          We always worked with quaternions as a simple example of a non-commutative group that at least has a bit of interior structure...

                            This is perhaps the most offtopic I've ever been in a thread.

                            I'll pop up a new thread.

                              Because stations cater to their audience, and it happens that a lot of active conservaties listen to the radio, moreso than liberals. IIRC, even a lot of liberals listen to convservative radio. I think it's a phenonmena of not having engaging liberal hosts. Would anyone call Mario Cuomo or Jim Hightower engaging hosts.....anyone? I didn't think so.
