In the first point of the article, the author says that Talk radio's listeners are disproportionately old and male. I agree with this point because most of the young and medium-aged people are out there working, which means they have less time to listen to talk radio shows. Most young people are interested in reading articles and watching television shows, but not listening to talk radio shows. In radio programs nowadays, most shows are conservative talk programs and political talk shows. The expected audience in political shows is elder people, especially men as women are busy running other errands.

What are the challenges to interoperable communication?

Interoperable communications normally require the use of sophisticated technological equipment. In most cases, these standardized equipments are costly to purchase. Additionally, technology is changing rapidly, which makes it necessary to upgrade the costly technologies and equipment used in interoperable communications (Moore, 2011). For instance, according to Moore (2011), between 2006 and 2008 resulted to an increase of about $5 billion to provide nationwide interoperable communications. Resources availability for interoperable communications mainly depends on the availability of the funds (Desourdis, 2009). Additionally, the state and local governments also provide resources in terms of labor and funding.
