I am shocked I tell you!

Capitalism is a wonderful thing.

[PJ-Comix]

Isn't there some sort of financial scandal that Err America is now involved in?

[kevkrom]

Jerry Springer, who is mulling a run for governor of Ohio

And Franken is supposedly considering a run for US Senate from Minnesota. Shouldn't Air America be regulated as a political campaign considering its main purpose is getting exposure for potential political candidates?

[goldstategop]

Its not so hot even in Blue State meccas like New York, Chicago and Los Angeles. Gotta wonder why liberal talk shows don't find a big audience. Could it be the message?

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

....Air America needs to understand...there's no market in hate.

[2001convSVT]

If he is rebroadcasting his best of shows they ran out of material in the first hour. The best part of the show was when he said good bye for the day. Someone needs to stick a fork in this turkey because it is done!

[Shazbot29]

dishing up reruns in a "best-of-Franken"

IOW dead air.

[RexBeach]

Me, too!

Hey, let's face the music here, Air America was a dud, is a dud and will always be a dud. It has nothing to offer even people who listen to it. Its shows are populated by wise-ass whiners who have never done anything for their country other than complain about it.

If you hate America, you'll love Air America!

[AppyPappy]

Horse doo doo. Limbaugh took off like a rocket when he went national. Err America has been in steady decline since Soros sunk his money in that boondoggle.

[kAcknor]

His show is now "dark," meaning it's dishing up reruns in a "best-of-Franken" format.

1. The network is so broke they can't afford to hire a fill in unless they pulled in a drug addicted homeless person.

2. They were worried that the homeless guy would get better ratings....

[digger48]

Garafalo and Franken are so unhygenic, you can smell them over the radio.

[Aquinasfan]

meaning there were too few listeners to measure during the second quarter of this year - the so-called spring book.

Hmmm... What could the potential listeners be up to?

[DoctorMichael]

While visiting my elderly mother in Kennedyland recently I was forced to hit the SEEK button on the car radio repeatedly in search of something to occupy my mind. My consternation grew as I surfed again and again and again, hitting the ubiquitous broadcast of AIR AMERICA that seemed to appear 10 to 15 times across the AM dial in this chronically Leftist New England state. Indeed, nowhere was to be found some of my favorite radio shows in their usual time-slots due to their preemption by this trash.

Its no wonder that the Northeast is irretrievably deranged.

[eggman]

Both WHAT and the show have fallen off the charts, according to radio-rating service Arbitron, meaning there were too few listeners to measure...

His show is now "dark," meaning it's dishing up reruns in a "best-of-Franken" format.

I guess dark is opposed to the usual dim shows he normally does.

[fatnotlazy]

Limbaugh, still the giant among talkers, with 14.75 million listeners on 600 stations, has squashed Franken like a bug.

YEE-HAH!

[reagan_fanatic]

I used to laugh and mock Err America, now I just feel pity for them. Al Franken-stein and Co. apparently don't have the slightest clue that the politics of hate they are so enamored with just doesn't play well with ordinary Americans. Their entire concept was doomed to failure from the very start, and it couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch.


heh heh heh...

[CFC__VRWC]

I am shocked I tell you!

The only thing I'm shocked about is how this story got by the Inquirer editors. This is the same paper that published 21 straight days of editorials commanding us to vote for John Kerry.

Don't they know the template for Air America stories is to gleefully report how they're just $10 away from making Rush Limbaugh beg for his drugs from the gutter?

(Note: I'm not slamming Rush - just engaging in a little libspeak).

[COBOL2Java]

This can't be true! The DUmmies are saying that Air America is the fastest growing network in radio!

Unless, of course, the DUmmies are screaming in an echo chamber....echo chamber...echo chamber...

[B Knotts]

In contrast to Limbaugh, who mocks his own pomposity, Franken comes across to critics as angry and not funny.

An accurate description of modern liberalism.

[nutmeg]

Limbaugh, still the giant among talkers, with 14.75 million listeners on 600 stations, has squashed Franken like a bug.

Gotta love it! :o)
