Political opinion and analysis
outside the mainstream rarely are found on television talk shows, and it might
be thought that this state of affairs is a product of the political agenda of
the television stations themselves. In fact, television stations are driven by
the same economic forces as sellers of more tangible goods. Because they must
attempt to capture the largest possible share of the television audience for
their shows, they air only those shows that will appeal to large numbers of
people. As a result, political opinions and analyses aired on television talk
shows are typically bland and innocuous.
