Tim, to call them pre-programmed is a little strong. The callers and their problems are real. The screener and producer sift through them to determine which will play best on radio, both the problem and the humor quotient. I think you're showing a bit of naivete if you've never considered this sort of thing happens.
And if you didn't know, there are commercial talk radio stations that use a device to remove dead air during programs like Rush Limbaugh's. Get rid of enough and you can squeeze in a couple more commercials. (I wish they'd have a machine to remove hot air. That would mean there'd be no Rush Limbaugh and others of his ilk.)
I'd be curious to know just what news operations you're talking about when you talk of propaganda. NewsMax and World Net Daily are a couple I'd say fall into that category.
