Is it? I was under the impression that this was a propaganda (ie Liberal) medium, funded by a few rich liberals as an INVESTMENT. The Liberals just can't seem to imagine that a bulk (of NON-VOTING) middle America doesn't think as they do. Thus, some liberal businessmen decided to invest what they feel is a paltry sum, with the potential of a huge financial windfall as soon as 'middle-America' wakes up to the siren call of Liberalism.
When this falls flat, and it will; the Liberals won't blame themselves for selling a product no one wants to buy. No, they will blame conservatives for denying them freedom of speech. If a bulk of America would behave like most Freepers, and take the time and energy to vote; I would imagine that very, very few Democrats would ever be elected.
The investors cannot be so stupid as to think that Franken is a good economic bet.
This is a giant CFR-skirting hate-spewing political attack ad. I cannot even imagine a scenario where this tripe becomes economically viable. Heck, if it was economically viable, they wouldn't be buying stations in order to broadcast.
Liberal talk radio could, at least in theory, be a good business in some markets. However, no way, no how would this be the model of someone pursuing this from a business perspective.
