Once again the libs show how totally ignorant they are of how the real world works. This should be a "Titanic" success. They're starting with no talent, no money, no stations, and no interest. Yeah, I can see why they're so optomistic. I can't wait to watch them flounder!

Air America = Radio of Ipecac. Listen to induce vomiting.

This is just another soft money loophole for the Dems run free campaign ads before the election.

This sounds like it will be hilarious. It should be good for a laugh if nothing else.

Franken, in a swipe at Fox News host Bill O'Reilly, plans to call his midday show "The O'Franken Factor." "Bill, I want you to sue us," Franken said on a conference call with reporters, referring to a case last year in which a judge threw out O'Reilly's request to ban Franken from using the slogan "Fair and Balanced" on the cover of his book.

If this is all he's got, it should be a short run. Pot shots at O'Reilly should work for Franken for a couple of weeks before people start to tune him out.

Screening your calls?

...referring to a case last year in which a judge threw out O'Reilly's request to ban Franken from using the slogan "Fair and Balanced" on the cover of his book.

That was Fox News that took this to court, not O'Reilly.

Hi there. It's me, your friendly neighborhood Associated Press salesman.

Perhaps you're wondering why the launch of this particular radio talk show gets full coverage by the AP, whereas you don't remember ever seeing us do this before. Well, it's because these particular talk show hosts are liberals... like we are. As the world's leading wire service, we take pride in our ability to blast our politics onto the news pages of over 1,500 dailies worldwide.

So remember, when you want full coverage of every press release put out by a left-of-center organization or left-wing celebrity, come to the Associated Press.

As the saying goes, Al Frannken has a face made for radio. I suppose most of the ads on the show will be for French products. Does Jack Handy have a French accent?

[Dan from Michigan]

Al Franken will fail. He's a little loudmouth girly man who isn't funny. Who will listen to what he has to say?

He's bad enough. He's dumb enough. And dog gone it, people don't like him!!!

Maybe they could hire Michael Moore as a pitchman.

Reuters Group today filed suit against the Associated Press, alleging "unfair and baseless claims" by AP that it is the world leader in liberally-slanted news. "Reuters is proud of its history as the loudest and most partisan purveyor of biased news coverage," said Reuters Group spokesman Joseph Goebbels. "We are outraged that Associated Press would claim to be more favorable to left-wing causes than we are."

Franken will be the lead personality on Air America Radio...

CNN filed suit today against Associated Press and Reuters, alleging trade libel and malicious defamation by the two wire service companies. "Let's be clear that we are the world's most liberal, most biased, and most shamelessly partisan news organization on the planet," said CNN news director Blitz Woofer. "We will vigorously defend our hard-earned reputation as the place liberals go to hear what they want to hear."

Okay, I didn't read the last sentence...

This should be great! The American people LOVE Jeanine Garafolo! We delight in dried up, bitter, unattractive movie stars! This is what we LIVE for! I have always wanted to score with Jeanine Garafolo, because I know that I would be her first. With her attitude, I am positive that it would be a chilling experience for me, and a brand new world for her.
Oh, I forgot to mention that I hate myself and want to die vomiting up my own spleen. That could factor in as well.

What these guys don't realize is that Limbaugh's real competition from a commercial point of view isn't liberals. It's daytime TV. Seen in that light, Limbaugh isn't such an 800 pound gorilla. Does he out-draw Oprah, Springer, and the soaps?

Al Franken is an insult comedian. He's more the liberal Don Rickles than the liberal Limbaugh.

[Salman]

...And Rickles is actually funny at times.
