Thanks for posting the Salon.com stock chart.
It gives me a legitimate entre.......
I think that the solution to the leftist problems is pretty obvious. There should be a merger between Salon.com and Air America and along with it a mega IPO.
With such an amalgam of talent and prospect, investors will fflock to the new stock.
There already is a partnership between Salon and Air America... and also the Guardian and MoveOn... just for this election year. Isn't that special? LOL
Salon.com Announces Election-Year Initiative With MoveOn, The Guardian and Air America
MediaChannel.org ^ | March 13, 2004 | Timothy Karr
NEW YORK, March 9, 2004 -- Salon.com announced Tuesday night a series of ambitious election-year initiatives, including the opening of a new Washington D.C. news bureau as well as strategic partnerships with MoveOn.org, The Guardian of London and the new progressive radio network, Air America.
The Website, which bills itself as "the largest independent news organization in the country" will also make the announcement via an email to MoveOn.org's 2-million plus members, MediaChannel has learned from a memo sent on Monday to Salon board members from company editor and founder David Talbot.
"The Web has come of age this campaign season as a political news medium and Salon is well positioned to be a leading player in the election year's round-the-clock news cycle," Talbot states.
Salon claims to have three million readers who visit its Website each month. Of this group, 74,000 are subscribers who pay up to $35 a year for "premium" access to news reports, political columns, cartoons and other editorial features. "We anticipate creating some buzz, and more importantly, new subscription revenue with this publicity offensive," Talbot wrote about this week's announcement in the memo to Salon board members.
In January Salon Media Group secured a $200,000 investment from Wenner Media, publisher of Rolling Stone magazine to collaborate on coverage of the upcoming presidential election. This funding helped set up the Washington Bureau headed by columnist and former Clinton aide Sidney Blumenthal.
