No, it's just a matter of listening for entertainment and employing your critical-thinking faculty. Even hosts whose views you disagree with can be very enjoyable to listen to. Think of Camille Paglia's affection for Rush Limbaugh. I was once a big Howard Stern fan, but I now listen, when I can, to Glenn Beck. Both are widely misperceived. There is no tyranny in talk-radio land. There are (nationally, not locally) engaging, witty voices with singular perspectives on what's going on in our culture. Listen as alertly as you would read editorials and op-ed pieces. Keep an open mind, and you are certain to find the experience bracing.
