Republican Voters Listen To AM/FM Radio, While Democrats Listen To Podcasts

According to a new study conducted by Edison Research, Republican voters listen more to AM/FM radio, while Democrats listen more to podcasts.

These results are really not new, or news.

"Yeah, there's a lot of conservatives out there listening to talk radio, like they always have" said Tim Graham, executive editor of NewsBusters.org, "And conservative talk radio is going to basically, end up delegitimizing the so-called mainstream media, because they're not mainstream."

As for the left being left with podcasts, one of the main reasons why is because liberal radio has failed, miserably.

"I just think it's funny that the liberals love podcasts, they would not love my NewsBuster's podcast" Graham told KTRH, "Most Americans don't really reach out for fair and balanced, it isn't really the model anymore."

The study also revealed that 84% of the voting age public is reached by audio - daily.
