And a couple of months ago, we thought Air America wouldn't be entertaining. lol. They have turned out to be very entertaining. Short-lived, but entertaining.

About 15 to 20 people were laid off in the closing of the sales offices.....

People in the "Franken Economy" are losing their jobs at a record rate. How short were their careers at "The Amateur Hour"?

After its launch, a dispute with business partner Multicultural Radio Broadcasting led to its programing being yanked from the air in Chicago and Los Angeles.

It doesn't speak well for Air America's liberals when the Multiculturals say, "Take a hike".

"...didn't these people learn anything from coward dean's campaign?"

Ya mean it's just another "Springtime for Hitler" scam?

I realized this morning that my gypsy cab driver had Air America on the radio. I said, "That's Air America!" and starting laughing continuously, out loud. He was embarrassed and said, "I just play what's on."

Then he told me it was a new station just recently put on the air. I told him, "It's going to be recently off the air any day now," and continued to laugh out loud, hard.

That bears repeating, Doc!

In big, bold type... ;-)

For some reason, Franckenstein Radio is on XM (national satellite) radio. Do you think that will help their chances any?

;They had a plan ?

Yah just like Austin Powers

"First I plan to soil myself.
Then I plan to come up with another plan"

I think so far they've got the first bit done.

I have tears in my eyes and can't stop laughing ...

Serious errors in business judgment account for Air America's problems...


There's a couple other reasons but unlike Rush I'm not going to clue them in! ;-) Isn't it a lovely day?

Of course Air America was torpedoed by the vast right wing cabal and George Bush personally with the help of Limbaugh, Hannity and O'Reilly. I couldn't be that people didn't actualy want to listen to this drivel and sponsors were offended by the hate speech.

Yeah, OK, they're retooling their business plan. I can see why. Originally they'd planned to succeed.
