Pretty much goes for ALL politically-slanted shows. According to that movie about Howard Stern from quite a few years ago, there were more people listening to his show that hated him and looked for things to hate on him than were fans listening for pleasure. I don't find this hard to believe at all.

It was before my time. Were they actually civil and discussed the ISSUES and not just called each other names? If so, yeah, I can imagine them watching and going, "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORING!"

Actually, the discussants were pretty "firey".  They wouldn't fit today's shows wells because they were still constrained by facts--even the audience demanded that back in the 70s.  But they certainly raised their voices.

Jane Curtain and Dan Akkroyd's SNL version brings us closer to current political discourse.
