In Canada, guys like Lowell Green, Charles Adler and Roy Green laid a lot of AM-radio groundwork, too. AM talk radio carried decades of syndicated Dr. Laura and whatnot. Even your median Morning Zoo guy on FM did a fair bit of complaining about how stupid the government was.

The difference between Andy Rooney and whatever Ross Douthat is going to be doing on '60 Minutes' is that Andy Rooney saw the bodies at Normady and the horror of the concentration camps, because he was a honest to god war correspondent before he became 'Andy Rooney' -- www.salon.com/2011/09/28/i...

Thousands and thousands of real live humans work in the city government, yet somehow they’ve collectively decided they should speak publicly in the voice of an evil robot.
