Turks get it
Source: BusinessWeek
The Young Turks are a trio of left-leaning talk-show hosts out of Los Angeles. They're opinionated, articulate and represent what could be big media's worst nightmare. They bypass gatekeepers and go directly to a niche audience. At 100,000 a week, the Turks' audience isn't large(so far). But it's enough to get advertisers for their Web-cast TV show and contracts with Sirius radio and three local radio stations. They recently televised a 99-hour "filibuster" against Alito's appointment to the Supreme Court. We couldn't even get the Senate to do that.
