Environmental activist Robert F.

Where "great" means "propped up by secret contributions from the Tides Foundation a la 'Salon.com'."

The overall upshot is for this to succeed as a "National Network" they don't need just a single success story but a whole set of them.

Not one of the folks they are pitching has a national radio presence, which says something in and of itself. Some can do standup comedy. Some are local radio hosts who have never made it past the local market.

By starting a "network" even if they get a single great one the rest likely won't succeed nationally. And they won't be able to sell enough ads to make the network profitable. They could always just hire local talent in each market but that defeats the whole network concept.

Ultimately it will collapse under its own economic weight. Methinks the timing of the start was delayed because even they know it won't work and they want to make sure they have the dough to make it till November.

They forget that The Mighty Maha Rushie didn't start this way. He started on one station and was so popular he got a second and a third, etc. etc. etc.

Pity they aren't going to be a public company so I could short sell the stock.......

And "battleground states" ? Since when was IL a battleground state. Bush will not carry IL I'm pretty sure of that. I think he'll win the nation but not IL.

Never mind how pathetic they are, we need to kill them at birth.

As soon as they say something outrageous, wqe should all pile on their advertisers and boycott their products.

No revenue - no show....

MIDI - VIDEO KILLED THE RADIO STAR

(musical intro)

I was listening to Hannity or Rushbo
When I tried another station...why?...I don't know
I heard someone and I said, man does this guy blow

Oh-a-oh

In no time I quickly reached the right conclusion
I determined that he needs a brain transfusion
The poor guy was really suffering delusion

Oh-a-oh...the guy was crazy...oh-a-oh...he's freakin' crazy

Liberals stunk my radio up...liberals stunk my radio up
Just 10 seconds...that's enough...now, it's in the trash can

CNN and Jennings spew the same old prattle
Those who watch them follow like they're sheep or cattle
In their heads we're sure we heard something rattle

Oh-a-oh...the guy was crazy...oh-a-oh...he's freakin' crazy

Liberals stunk my radio up...liberals stunk my radio up
Just 10 seconds...that's enough...and that decision had not been tough
Now, it's in the trash can...stuffed down in the trash can

(musical interlude)

I'll miss that old Grundig

Liberals stunk my radio up...liberals stunk my radio up
Just 10 seconds...that's enough...and that decision had not been tough
I won't put up with that stuff...always whining while in a huff

(musical interlude)

Liberals stunk my radio up...liberals stunk my radio up
Liberals stunk my radio up...liberals stunk my radio up
Liberals stunk my radio up...liberals stunk my radio up
Liberals stunk my radio up...liberals stunk my radio up
Liberals stunk my radio up...(fade)

(musical finish)

O'Reilly will play straight into Franken's hands by constantly bellyaching about his use of O'Franken Factor. This should be funny.
