Talk radio sucks

The other day I was driving around listening to shitty Metallica songs (an amazing way to clear the mind and come up with new ideas) and I stumbled across what may be the ultimate question:

What is stupider, talk radio or internet forums?

Both have assured anonymity for the participants. I guess talk radio hosts aren't anonymous, but they are blowhards and douchebags, so whatever. Although anyone who has ever looked at a discussion thread on Fark knows the internet has no shortage of pretentious assholes either.

It's kind of fun to think about the differences between the two mediums. On one hand, talk radio offers old media types a way to limit the discussion while still reaching out to the common clay of today's society -- you know, morons. On the other hand, the internet forum is accessible to anyone with a computer and an opinion, which is a blessing and a curse.

Lets break it down:

Patron Saint
Radio: Rush Limbaugh
Internet: Al Gore

Gatekeepers
Radio: The hosts and producers -- paunchy assholes with inflated opinions
Internet: "Mods" -- pasty losers with an axe to grind

Audience:
Radio: Construction workers
Internet: Office workers

George Bush is supported by:
Radio: Conservative idiots
Internet: Liberal trolls

Material
Radio: Current events, shit they stole from blogs
Internet: Current events, making fun of other mediums

Greatest Achievement:
Radio: Poisoned the well of American political debate
Internet: LOLCats

Participants:
Radio: Losers who spend hours calling in
Internet: Underemployed jackasses

So there you have it, radio is clearly dumber. Although if anonymous makes another comment that completely misses/ignores the point of a post I may change my mind.
