so, sean hannity's music. okay, the obvious one is "independence day," w/ its line about letting "the right be wrong" (i still contend that singing this is why carrie underwood beat bo in 'american idol.') but he also uses "the way it is" by bruce hornsby. which is a song about, amongst other things, the civil rights act or, rather, the fact that the bill won't change the minds of people. conservatives, by definition, prefer things "the way they are," but i wonder if sean is aware of what the lyrics are really about? |
my name is fred solinger. on wednesday, september 7, i will provide running commentary on seventeen straight hours of running commentary, opinion, and straight news from a variety of radio stations and television networks. my objective is to be objective ... beyond that, i'm not quite sure, but hopefully it'll be more lucid at 4am, when all of this is over. one thing is for sure: i won't be lucid at that hour. links to the monitored programs, arranged ideologically*, in alphabetical order, lest i be charged w/ bias: the fair & balanced: the left: the right: *that is, when the host has an avowed political position; otherwise, they are assumed to be independent. this is as applicable to bill o'reilly, who leans right, as it is to jon stewart, who leans left.    |
