It will be interesting to see who's ready to jump in and answer to that opportunity. I think the "bigger fish" have likely reached market saturation levels already. They might gain some marginal share around the edges, but if someone in Kirk's audience wanted to listen to Alex Jones or Ben Shapiro, chances are they're already doing so. So that leaves room for some real bottom feeders to gain audience share from this incident.
