ThinkProgress.org: In 2006, Media Matters conducted a study on Sunday political talk shows, finding that “Republicans and
conservatives have been offered more opportunities to appear on the Sunday shows — in some cases, dramatically so.” From 2001 to 2005, conservative guests outnumbered progressives “by 58 percent to 42 percent.” Atrios notes that [today's] shows will also be dominated by
conservative guests:
- 7 Appearances by Republican current elected officeholders
- 3 Appearances by Democratic current elected officeholders
- 2 Appearances by Republican former elected officeholders
- 1 Appearance by a Bush Cabinet Secretary
- T. Boone Pickens
- Ted Turner
