Right? Here's what I don't get. About 50% of the country leans right, politically. Sure it's not exactly 50 percent, but for our purposes of this discussion, it is. So why in the world would you actively condone and encourage your on-air personalities -- most of whom probably lean left -- to talk politics on the air? You're alienating half of your potential customer. It's why I never understand why companies make politically-charged ads. Unless you're a mega corp like Coca-Cola or Apple where you have billions of customers and you won't feel it if a couple million walk away, then you should stay away from supporting a political side. It isn't good business.
