"There is no need for mass media with a Liberal slant, because it is already all around us."

Sajak's point is quite obvious and yet it is necessary that America hears it from an expert I guess.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

What will eventually kill Air America is its redundancy.

Not to mention...

[JarheadFromFlorida]

Great analogy Pat! It's just a matter of time before white noise is heard where Dead Air America is now brodcasting. Thats the good news. The bad news is that the nasty ass Randi Rhodes will be back on the air down here in south Florida spewing here hate in that obnoxious gravely smokers voice.

[Coop]

I'd like to buy a vowel.

Sajak's point is quite obvious

Sure... but it gives me such a warm fuzzy feeling to hear it. :)

[D-fendr]

Well, that and it's a lousy show...

[freedomson]

Go Pat, go.

[sassbox]

not to mention the fact that there is already a left-leaning radio station out there: NPR.

[Buck W.]

Transcript of any given Randi Rhodes show:

"Give me a break! Can you believe he said that? What a moron! Give me a break!"

Loop and repeat for three (3) hours.

What ever happened to Davis of "Franken & Davis"? I remember him as the tall, skinny nebischy guy....

[pabianice]

At the heart of Franken's "comedy" is vileness. And people recognize at some unconscious level that Franken et al are hatemongers of the worst sort.

The all time low on network TV was a Franken bit on the old SNL. In the skit Franken stops his act and announces that his stage partner and he are really secret gay lovers. Then a child runs out of the audience and screams at Franken, "I hate you, daddy!" Then, from behind a curtain where Franken's partner went, we hear a gun shot and see a muzzle flash. Franken then bewails the hatred of Conservatives who would make his "partner" kill himself. After a stunned moment, Franken smiles and says, "It's all a joke, Folks!"

This hideous piece if TV dirt remains with me today as the lowest thing I've seen on TV. Oh. The NY audience loved it.

[dfwgator]

when Al was part of the team of Franken & Davis on Saturday Night Live, I wondered how a comedy duo could survive with two straight men.

I guess they really weren't lying when they said that the Franken & Davis Show was brought to you by the International Communist Party.

I don't agree. What is killing AA is WHAT IT IS, not redundancy. Liberal talk radio has failed so many times, you would think the writer would have noted that. Radio succeeds when its advertisers make money from the audience. That is why they have never been able to attract and hold mainstream advertisers. Most marketing people are smart enough to know their markets and they know the sector of our society that needs to be fed liberal anti-truths. They are not interested in that sector.

So that is a death sentence for liberal radio and always has been. Put very simply, who wants to listen to liberal crap? Certainly not the informed and intellectual.

I just love seeing George Soros and his ilk, thowing away their money on the libs :-)

[Buck W.]

I remember that one well. Weren't they dressed as sumo wrestlers?

[smoothsailing]

I should have put a ban on Franken graphics in my post.BLECH!! :)

[blackie]

Pat Sajak nailed it ~ Bump!

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Would YOU buy a used car from that man, much less waste your time listening to him on the radio?!

[chapin2500]

With all the national coverage air amerika gets you would think they could get an audience. The libs either dont care or they are to stoned to remember they have now have a radio show.

[IamConservative]

Wonder how Al Gore TV is coming along?
