Am I the only one who is getting tired of hearing local talk show hosts regularly talk about the US presidential election? If I want to hear more of this insanity, I can tune into numerous news outlets in the US. It is a real turnoff to tune into a station like NW or a sports station like TSN1040 (a sports jock getting political is incredibly hilarious) and hear US election talk which is essentially US newswire stories and opinions.
It’s time the stations realised that their existence depends on good local coverage and the minute they start with non-Canadian political talk they are opening the door to people tuning in stations internationally through the internet.
