  • The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy
    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

  • Georgia Senate: How to Blow a Lead
    This issue brought to you by Georgia Senate: How to Blow a Lead By Jacob Rubashkin MARCH 6, 2020 VOLUME 4, NO. 5 While Republicans revel in the messiness of the Democratic presidential primary, the GOP has an intra-party fight of its own in Georgia, with control of the Senate potentially on the line. 2020 Senate Ratings In August, GOP Sen. Johnny Isakson announced his resignation due to Parkinson’s disease, triggering a special election to fill out the Toss-Up remainder of his term. He also created a headache for newly-elected Gardner (R-Colo.) Tillis (R-N.C.) Governor Brian Kemp, who was tasked with appointing a new senator McSally (R-Ariz.) to fill Isakson’s seat until a special election could be held. Kemp found himself between a rock and a hard place. President Tilt Democratic Tilt Republican Donald Trump, whose endorsement helped secure Kemp’s victory Collins (R-Maine) in a heavily contested gubernatorial primary just a year earlier, was Lean Democratic Lean Republican advocating strongly for 9th District Rep. Doug Collins, a close Trump ally. Peters (D-Mich.) KS Open (Roberts, R) But Kemp went a different direction, selecting Atlanta mega-donor Ernst (R-Iowa) and businesswoman Kelly Loeffler, and setting up a competitive fight Jones (D-Ala.) between Republicans. Likely Democratic Likely Republican Adding a layer of complexity to it all is Georgia’s unique way of Shaheen (D-N.H.) Cornyn (R-Texas) holding special elections for the Senate. Instead of separate primaries in which each party selects its nominee, all candidates from both parties Loeffl er (R-Ga.) will appear on the same ballot on Election Day in November.
