If only they tried to hire Les Nessman he woulda told them that Turkeys can't fly.

In Monterey-Santa Cruz (CA) area, the AAR station didn't even make the ratings list.

They just started runnning AAR on a tiny little AM station. I have listened from time to time out of morbid curiosity. They remind me of nothing so much as a bunch of stupid children throwing an endless tantrum. The market should make quick work of their nonsense unless they had access to some deep pockets.

...Turkeys can't fly.

I agree that Turkey is one of more polite and appropriate descriptions of Air America but you must not have hunted wild turkeys.

There is obviously something wrong here. The NYT says that the progressive radio program is doing great.

Yeah, that right-wing bunch of nuts at Neilsson's is cooking the numbers.

It's Bush's fault. If he'd just stand still long enough for Al Franken and his klever komrades to take a proper aim before they shoot their verbal wads, maybe they could be on target with some wild rumor or story about the 'dumbest' president, ever.

Which reminds me.
If the Lefties consider Bush to be a simpleton and Hillary!(tm) to be the smartest woman in the world...
How come Dubya was able to turn a $500,000 investment in the Rangers Baseball Team into $16 million and Hillary could only scam a measley $100,000 from an original $1,000 investment in beef futures? How'd that make her smarter? I see a 160 to 1 ratio of brains over blather, if you keep score this way.

I was thinking of that episode where they dropped the Turkeys out of the helicopter. So, Turkeys do fly?

They should hire comedians who know something about politics as hosts. I bet there ratings would do better.

Odd, isn't it. The hosts are mostly comedians, yet it's all pretty humorless.

That Kennedy guy is the funniest with his warbly voice.

Since the Gloria Wise Boys and Girls Club received large city grants, AAR was funded by the taxpayers.

They have access to some pretty deep pockets and also are gaining skills in the fraud and scam arts. I hope Soros gives them millions and millions of dollars and buys them hundreds of radio stations.

The turkeys dropped from helicopters had to be domestic birds since wild turkeys are generally protected as game birds. Wild turkeys do fly although they probably spend more time walking. I had a friend who raised wild turkeys to release for hunting. He had to keep them in closed buildings because they fly over fences. Once released they were game birds and subject to all of the state wildlife regulations.

Mainstream America isn't buying what Randi Rhodes and the rest of her kook fringe followers are selling. The only bad thing about when Der America radio goes under, is that the foul mouthed, nicotine addict Rhodes (who won't even use her real last name) might end up back down here on AM radio in South Florida where she started. If she does, I will call her local show and make her yell and scream just like I used to do :)

I'd like to see the numbers for Madison, WI where it was also said to be succeeding. If you define success as beating the out-of-town polka station...maybe...
