>The media is a strange duck. It is all right to say some things and not others. Attacking Clinton is OK. Attacking Bush is not. The list goes on and talk show hosts and commentators become like self glorified oafs. How many liberal talk show hosts are there compared to conservative hosts?

Very few. However, the number of whatever kind of talk show hosts there are is a reflection of the quality of their show, not whether they are of a particular race, political bent or whatever. It is a ratings and money game that dictates whether your show survives or dies. To that end, I would say that liberal talk shows are sparse because that can not garner and keep an audience for whatever reason.
