The mystery of why Rhodes was off the air the last week is solved. The paychecks stopped.

[SkyDancer]

I’ve always had a hard time with the name “Air America” don’t those liberal idiots realize it’s the CIA’s air force?

Rhodes flagship WJNO in West Palm Beach has temporarily substituted Sean Hannity’s program in the afternoon slot due to the absence of her program.

[bergmeid]

Oh what a shame.

I guess liberals feel the same about paying their mouthpieces as they feel about paying their taxes.

[A.A. Cunningham]

Not to worry. The messiah is en route with bailout funds to ensure that an objective viewpoint, which the market overwhelmingly rejects, will continue to be broadcast.

Bush’s fault....

The Victory goes to CONSERVATIVE TALK RADIO. This is sure to bring increasingly strident imprications from the Lafties to impose "fairness doctrine."

Well, I can see the NYT under fairness doctrine?

They do NOT want to go there.

Air America founder tries suicide? Hope it is successful

[Cuttnhorse]

This is too, too funny. Everyone should watch the YouTube exchange between the very pretty and smart Megyn Kelly and and the looney Bill Press. A link is within the article...priceless.

How the hell could anyone tell she was off? Does anyone listen to her show?

[wac3rd]

Where is Stabenow’s cheatin’ husband? The Liberals must force conservative talk radio to be silent in the pursuit of failure.

The Leftist playbook is always the same, trade the functioning for the disfunctional...the profitable for the bankrupt and the moral for the immoral.

Every program, every city and every Democratic position always punishes the taxpayer, the innovator and the thrifty...using taxpayer funds to “mop-up” for those who never really contribute, ethically or financially.

“When you can’t succeed on your own, take steps to ensure the failure of the successful” - Barrack Hussein Obama (on the necessity of the Fairness Doctrine)

Maybe, if they hurry, they can blame it on the end of analog TV.

If leftist suckers fell for Obambi, they should easily fall for that one.

So I’m traveling in sw florida this week for work and on sunday afternoon I was driving thru the everglades desperate for any radio to listen to and landed on a local air america station . At every commercial break there would be one or two ads...then three or four minutes of music...all unsold ad time. Most of the ads they did run were for progressive insurance...obviously ad buys based on progressive’s lefty ceo’s politics, not based on a business decision...I as probably one of about ten people listening (the other nine called in to talk about how wonderful the obamassiah is...)

The libs at LiberalTalkRadio.blogspot.com are pooh-poohing Brian’s report...

>>3. Rumors are swirling right now that Nova M has folded. Proving that he’s in a world of his own, the Tranquilizer [their nickname for Brian M.’s Radio Equalizer blog] is claiming that Rhodes’ lawyer sent him a letter claiming that Nova M didn’t make payroll and is about to fold, that Mike Malloy’s show has been cancelled and that the network’s co-founder, Sheldon Drobny, is in the hospital after an apparent ‘suicide attempt.’ Suicide??? Basically, Brian Maloney has topped himself on the crass-o-meter.
Sheldon’s wife, Anita, confirmed that her husband was in the hospital, but it was a ‘nervous breakdown’. So, like anything regarding either Nova M, Randi Rhodes or, heck, most liberal talk radio in general, there are a lot of mixed signals here...

>>4. So, if Nova M is totally and completely kaput and the Malloy show has been outright cancelled, then that’s news to Mike and Kathy Malloy. The show should go on as scheduled tonight.

>>5. Radio & Records, a more reliable source for industry news than right-wing blogs run by crazy people(sic), cites Nova M’s general manager, Eric Reinert, who said that Nova M is no longer an entity and that a new company called On Second Thought LLC has been formed and is moving forward. Reinart also confirmed that Rhodes is officially out. The new network will continue to offer Mike Malloy, Phoenix host Mike Newcomb and a new show from Nancy Skinner, who had been filling in for Rhodes.

6. Oh, and that lawsuit brought against Nova M by former CEO John Manzo? Reinart wouldn’t comment on that. The 16-page complaint alleges, among other things, that the syndicator breached Manzo’s contract, failed to pay state and federal taxes on his behalf, defamed his character and cast him in a false light.
