The San Francisco Bay Area is home to some of the most outspoken progressive thinkers in the country. It sets the stage for activists from Berkley to San Francisco to San Jose to make national news about extravagant protests. In the midst of this mayhem, there is a radio station that has the self proclaimed mission to give "right thinking from the left coast." Hot Talk 560 KSFO is a conservative news talk radio that is home to former weatherman Brian Sussman. For twenty years Sussman was a highly regarded weatherman. He has left his green screen days behind him and taken us making a face on the radio. For several years he has accompanied the morning crew headed by Leee Rodgers, while also hosting his own drive time show in the afternoon. Now that he has been given the chance to speak about more than the weather he feels his passion for truth and right can be heard.
Sussman won't claim to be a typical "mainstream journalist." He makes it a point to let all sides peak their mind on the issues, but will not back down that "the right is right." Rather than fall into the stereotype of a radical with no facts, he emphasises heavily issues that he knows very well. His background as a meteorologist gives him a strong footing to fight what he believes is the lie about man made global warming. Sussman believes that journalism requiers all sides to be shown, and his role is to show what the big news netwroks won't aknowledge. While he doesn't share news that show both sides of the story, he feels he is filling a forgotten niche that people want to hear. Brian belives that democracy is kept alive by having more people educated on the issues rather than spoon fed information from an elite few.
