SCHULTZ (05:22): Now the other story was, when this program started in 2004, there was a lot of scuttlebutt on Capitol Hill, was that, well, Democrats and liberals don’t know how to use talk radio. They’re just overwhelmed by the right-wingers and we just don’t know how to do anything when it comes to conversation.
So there were, and I’m not going to reveal the names, there were a few Senate offices that got involved and got some interns involved and they started to survey and coach these kids up and a few of their communications people were coaching them up on how to call a talk show.
And so such was the birth of liberal talk. I don’t know if they do that now. I don’t know on Capitol Hill, I’m in New York, I’m not, I don’t know if any of the Senate offices or House offices do that any more.
