'''Conservative talk radio''' in the [[United States]] is a phenomenon that got its start in the 1980s when the [[Fairness Doctrine]] was allowed to expire under [[Ronald Reagan|President Reagan]].

This allowed broadcasters to present a political opinion or point of view or pundit without being required to allow equal time for alternative views or rebuttal.

At the same time, AM radio was languishing in the shadow of the higher quality sound of FM, with no remarkable content to attract listeners.

Into this perfect storm of opportunity rode [[Rush Limbaugh]], with his brand of outlandish self-depreciation and mockery and conservative positions. He has since been followed by many other more or less successful pundits; likewise the millions of listeners Limbaugh attracted to Talk Radio led to the creation of the [[Fox Radio Network]].
[[Liberal talk radio]] has been rather less successful.
