  1. Hello, I've been monitoring, and calling into, a lot of talk radio over the past few years. I've noticed that the forum is used to define "Christianity" as supporting the right-wing, damning gays, supporting belligerent foreign policy and so forth. To their credit, many talk radio hosts will take calls of dissent. I just got off the phone with the substitute host on the Michael Reagan Show (Dan Patrick), and I mentioned how abortion rates go down when Democrats are in office (because they support things like pre-natal care, sex ed, birth control accessibility, job training, child care, etc.), and I put in a plug for Sojourners magazine. The host said some silly things, but when I call in I kind of have the audience in mind and don't worry so much about what the host might think. I've also talked about charlatans like Pat Robertson and his investment in gold mines in Liberia and his support of dictators like Rios Montt. Anyway, people may want to reach out to people via the talk radio airwaves. There are even some progressive talk hosts who welcome the Christian Left, like www.AirAmericaRadio.com, www.ThomHartmann.com, www.TheGuyJamesShow.com, Enid Goldstein on www.KNRCradio.com, and Mike Newcomb on www.1100kfnx.com, and a couple others.
