Don't forget cleaver and calculating business man. He trashes anything that he doesn't hope to sell in his broadcast market. I remember years ago when he hoped to get a big contract to sell full size cars and/or SUVs. So what did he do? He kept trashing small compact cars. He called them "put-puts" and lawn mowers on wheels. And he ridiculed the drivers of small cars for "trying to save the planet" when most of us, I believe, were just trying to save some money. Did it bother him that he was insulting a lot of his regular listeners? No, because his goal was to earn some brownie points with the motor vehicle industry, where he hoped to score a contract to advertise full size vehicles or SUVs.

He is, in my opinion, a smart, but seriously compromised, personality, with very little impact beyond his few million ditto-head like-minded listeners.

I think you nailed it.
