Talk radio saw a dramatic rise when the FCC repealed the [[Fairness Doctrine]] which mandated that equal air time be given to opposing views. Since the repeal, talk radio has been dominated largely by conservative voices such as [[Rush Limbaugh]], [[Sean Hannity]], and [[Michael Savage]]. Generally, [[liberal]] talk radio has failed; for example, Air America Radio, a [[liberal]] radio network, went bankrupt on October 13, 2006. As of July 2007, however, Air America is still broadcasting.
