DUmmie FUnnies 08-30-06 (Air America FIRES Mike Malloy!!!)
DUmmie FUnnies ^ | August 20, 2006 | Mrs. Mike Malloy, DUmmies, KOmmies, and PJ-Comix

Posted on 08/30/2006 3:07:17 PM PDT by PJ-Comix

There is now a cryptic ANNOUNCEMENT on Mike Malloy's website:

MIKE MALLOY FIRED BY AIR AMERICA RADIO

There will be no Mike Malloy program today - or any day - on Air America Radio as we have been terminated. We are as shocked as you are. We are told its a financial decision.

As a result there is great mourning in the Leftist blogosphere as you can see in this DUmmie THREAD posted by Mrs. Mike Malloy titled, "Mike Malloy Fired from Air America Radio." Joining in the mourning process are the Daily Kos KOmmies with a THREAD titled, "BREAKING: Air America Does It Again - Mike Malloy FIRED." The amazing thing here is that even though many leftists have been ANNOYED by Al Franken or irritated by Randi Rhodes, they all liked Mike Malloy. So does this sound like the actions of a thriving radio network or the work of desperate cost cutting in order to afford the overinflated salaries of Franken and Rhodes? I will leave that speculation for later but right now let us join the DUmmies and KOmmies as they mourn the lost of Malloy in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, watching Air America sinking ever faster in the ratings, is in the [brackets]:

Mike Malloy Fired from Air America Radio

[While continuing to pay the non-talented Al Franken millions. Continue Mrs. Malloy aka MalloyProducer...]

This is not a published news article, but I think it qualifies as LBN.

[LBN stands for Latest Breaking News for those of you unfamiliar with DUmmieSpeak.]

This is Kathy Bay Malloy and we just got news that as of this minute we've been terminated by Air America Radio.

[Mike's salary was needed to pay for Al Franken's private jet fuel expenses.]

We don't have all the details yet, but got a tip from someone who'd seen the new network lineup that we weren't included after all. We just had that confirmed by one of the suits a few minutes ago. We're told that its a financial decision.

[Al and Randi's knick-knacks don't come cheap.]

Thank you so much for your ongoing support and we'll keep you updated as we receive more information.

[Thanx for the news tip, Kathy. It will certainly be a featured DUmmie FUnnies item as we watch the continued sinking of Air America into the ratings toilet.]

omg!! Can anyone confirm this?

[Mrs. Malloy just did plus Mr. Malloy also confirmed it on his website. What do you need? For it to be engraved in stone?]

Kathy is Mike's wife and producer. If she says it's so, it's true.

[They didn't get married last May 12, did they? JUST KIDDING!!! Okay, I am definitely convinced that Air America just stabbed Mike Malloy in the back. So what else is new?]

if this is true than I say SCREW YOU AIRAMERICA!

[It's true but they were already screwed.]

We still have Ed Schultz to listen to ! This was a shot at a little dark humor, hope it didn't hurt too much

[Yeah, you can listen to Blowhard Ed Schultz give his baloney explanation about how he converted into a liberal Democrat while eating a Salvation Army baloney sandwhich which "coincidentally" happened about the same time the DNC handed him a bundle of cash to become a phony liberal.]

The corporate spin-doctors have some kind of lever with the advertisers at AAR and are trying to marginalize and splinter the rest of us. All is okay with whatever but just be aware how successful AAR had become in so short of a time.

[Air America became successful in a short time? And what dreamworld are you living on?]

I will not be listening to AAR if mike is not part of their line-up, I love Randi but not enough to tune in to an outlet that is destroying itself from within.

[Yeah, real success going on their with Air America. Now even their hardcore base is abandoning them.]

I hope it's a joke or prank but...if it's not it needs to receive the widest viewing that DU readers can help it with.

[Hey, I'll even help out by featuring this thread in the DUmmie FUnnies.]

What the hell is going on over at AAR anyway?

[It's called Going Down the Toilet.]

Goddamnit. Kathy, I am so pissed right now. Unbelievable. I'm speechless. Please keep us updated.

[Update: Al Franken is getting another undeserved raise.]

Let me just say f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck f*ck

[Let me just say ha ha ha ha ha]

Who's really running Air America?

[George Soros.]

what a SCANDAL! you guys are the best of air america they'll be hearing from me, definitely. i can't believe they'll keep al franken (i turn air america off every day at lunchtime) and not keep you guys.

[Al Franken is very popular in the insomniac wards.]

Was he fired for cause or just because of ratings?

[If it were just for ratings then ALL Air America hosts would be fired.]

Maybe bushco has gotten control of AirAmerikkka

[And Karl Rove is now their program director.]

I predict that Firing Malloy will be the end of Air America.

[That's like predicting the demise of a corpse.]

Air America Radio really f*cked up this time. Looks like the NeoCons have infiltrated AAR management.

[God forbid you lay the blame on the liberals for firing Mike Malloy. No, it's all the fault of those nasty NeoCons. They're everywhere! They're everywhere!]

UN-F*CKING-BELIEVABLE.... No wait it is believable becuase this country is going to shit. From this moment on I am DONE with AAR. Completely done. They can take Jerry Springer and shove him up their asses.

[Ironically, you now sound like a perfect guest for the Jerry Springer TV show... "And today on Jerry Springer, outraged Mike Malloy fans who want to shove Jerry Springer up the asses of Air America!"

Air America is dead to me.

[Can we use that for the Air America promo?]

AAR - Youre dead to me. Bookmarks deleted. As of today, no more... F*ck them. The only one I listened to regularly on that network is Malloy. AAR - You're Dead to me.

[Redundancy can be quite catchy as well as contagious.]

A blitz on AAR sponsors... might cut to the heart of the matter. I listen online so I don't hear most of the commercials. Maybe someone could start a list of sponsors with contact numbers.

[You want a list of AAR sponsors? Just look at blank page.]

Shultz, Franken and the rest of the remaining lot ... are nothing but useless boring idiots IMO.

[And this DUmmie WINS a Kewpie Doll for having a brief moment of mental clarity!]

So sorry Kathy. I foresee the imminent demise of AAR...

[I forsaw that result from the day they went on the air.]

OH HELL NO!!!!!!!!! F*CKING SON OF A BITCH MOTHER F*CKING AA JACK ASS EXECS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Malloy is this generations Thomas Paine. He is THE most powerful voice for the LIBERAL ideals of this country. I love Mike Malloy for his passion and his unrelenting courage to call these mother f*cking bastards in the bush crime family just what they are. And they fired him?!!!! This can't be true, this just can't f*cking be true!

[Mike Malloy fired? Bush's fault! And now we move to the KOmmie WAKE for Mike Malloy...]

BREAKING: Air America Does It Again - Mike Malloy FIRED

[Air America fired Mike Malloy twice?]

The asshats at Air America Radio have shown their stupidity again by firing one of their most popular and progressive hosts, Mike Malloy.

[That's so they can pay the inflated salaries of their least popular hosts.]

HE SIGNED A NEW F*CKING CONTRACT. They said, F*CK OFF today.

[Business ethics, Air America style.]

Franken's their big star. I think Al gets pretty much what Al wants.

[And what Al wants is $$$$$.]

Loved Mike Malloy and wish they would put Al Franken on in his time slot...so I could fall asleep faster.

[Listening to Al Franken works better than sleeping pills.]

The AAR business model is very flawed. Instead of a network of shows they should have been in the syndication business.

[AAR had a BUSINESS model? News to me.]

The bozoids that "run" ErrAmerica wear suits? Perhaps she meant "one of the tie-dyes."

When I was a DUmmie I started listening to Air America. 1-2 months after that, I converted.

Maybe Err America is really a secret Rovian Plot? Bwahahaha

If a tree falls in a forest, and there's no one around to hear it, does it make a sound?

NOTE: I am just starting to read this DUFU, but I wouldn't be surprised if down the thread somebody else makes a similar comment. So I'll get this out of the way now:

_____, I SWEAR I hadn't read your post #___ when I posted my #___!

Mike Malloy Fired from Air America Radio

Man, that's low. Getting fired from Err America is like getting cut as a bench player from the Kansas City Royals.

From Malloy's list of nicknames for people, I actually like this one...

A couple of days ago Malloy was filling in for the Screech Owl (my nickname for Randi Rhodes), and he actually suggested that the John Mark Karr affair was orchestrated by the "Bush Crime Family" in order to take public attention away from Judge Anne Diggs Taylor's decision. Most people have to take fistfuls of drugs to reach that level of insanity.

more via RadioEqualizer blog (http://radioequalizer.blogspot.com):



Hot- headed extremist Mike Malloy says he's been unexpectedly fired by Air America Radio, according to his website and a posting by his producer / wife Kathy at the Democratic Underground. Apparently, he's already done his last show for the network (hat tip to Boston's "RaccoonRadio" Bob)...this news further sheds light on the turmoil that has enveloped the floundering operation...
Though Malloy and wife Kathy weren't being paid much by Air America, very little of its programming schedule outside of Franken, Rhodes and a couple of others now appears to be avoiding the chopping block. (snip) The bigger question, of course, is why the inner turmoil at the network continues unabated. Programming decisions seem to change by the day, with a scorecard needed to keep track of them.

In addition, the Radio Equalizer has heard that at least some of Malloy's stations were caught off guard by his firing, having not received the customary notice of his show's cancellation. At least one affiliate was scrambling Wednesday to make other plans at the last minute.

Air America's listeners are...wealthy, white, middle-aged, and overwhelmingly male. According to a survey conducted earlier this year by the Media Audit, 91 percent of the station's audience is Caucasian, while 83 percent is male. Roughly 70 percent of Air America's listeners are at least 45 years old, and 60 percent have household incomes of greater than $75,000.

Power to the people!!!

I first encountered Malloy while surfing the dial shortly after the 2004 election. He was spinning conspiracies after the Dems finally gave up on the idea of challenging the Ohio vote, and was challenging his listeners to donate to a group that vowed to pay for a re-count of the entire state. It was the most entertaining bit of moonbattery since the Fairness Doctrine-era 30-minute Lyndon LaRouche TV ads.
