Conservative talk radio is the primary source of “news” for many people across the country, especially those living outside major urban areas.
The Talk Radio Project (“TRP”) brings a progressive point of view to the conversation, and counters misinformation and sensational claims. In key states, callers indirectly support progressive candidates by advocating for specific policy positions. The TRP recruits and organizes working teams and provides initial and ongoing volunteer training.

"In Wisconsin, [...] there are 81 right-wing talk stations across the state. The number of progressive stations in Wisconsin? Three. Far-right media—from Steve Bannon’s War Room show down to its local imitators, with enthusiastic support from Trump—have made it their mission to take over the machinery of election administration."
— Ben Wikler, The New Republic
