The article focuses on radio show. This Journal has never been associated with TV Nation, the unquestionably subversive television conspiracy from Michael Moore. But the author welcomes Moore's snappy satire to the air. Ditto, former Texas Agriculture Commissioner Jim Hightower, who launched a syndicated weekend talkradio show from his aerie above the Chat & Chew Cafe--long-awaited relief from Rush-polluted airwaves. The big broadcast media have a longstanding terror of any whiff of antiestablishment backtalk.
