Well talk back TV occurs in the US (Larry King et al) and has been tried in
Australia (Alan Jones).

Several writers (Higgins and Moss for example) have shown how talk back
provides an illusion of access as the control is firmly in the hands of the
host - both physically with a dump button and choice on which calls they
air, and control of the agenda.
