Anyone who reads un-edited comments across the web will be familiar with how nasty so many contributions can be.
With internet radio, people now have the opportunity to listen to radio stations from anywhere in the world.
Anyone who has the opportunity to listen to US radio will be aware of the shock and horror of so many local stations.
Surely this can't be the land of the free and the home of the brave.
Irrespective of what one's politics are, the current non-stop attack on the US President makes for terrible radio.
Its rudeness and vulgarity have to be heard to be believed.
Is this style of radio some sort of mirror of what life is like in the US?

Michael, I think the broad answer to your question has to be 'yes'. Life is like that in the USA in my experience. Society is like that, very polarized and 'at-each-other' is the default position. It is not all that different in the Roman Catholic Church in the USA. Again, vastly opposing ideas and blueprints for Church mission and development mean 'fraternal' discussion, even communication that is respectful, is not a common feature of Church life.
