Just read these three paragraphs and try not to fall on the floor laughing. hehe
The network's star -- former "Saturday Night Live" funnyman Al Franken -- was feted by the New York Times as Air America's "big gun in the noon-to-3-p.m. slot going up against his old nemesis, Rush Limbaugh."
Now, nearly 18 months later, the network's ratings remain low. AAR's former boss has been accused of swindling hundreds of thousands of dollars from a social service agency for poor children. And a lawsuit seeking more than a quarter-million dollars charges that AAR perpetrated a "sham" to defraud the network's creditors.
One of the nation's largest minority-owned broadcasting companies is suing the parent company of AAR. Multicultural Radio says it is owed $255,000 and that AAR's change of ownership last year was a "sham" meant to cheat creditors.

I tried, but it was awful hard.
The funny thing is that whenever Franken talks publicly, he brags about how great his ratings are. He always says, "I'm killing Bill O'Reilly ratings-wise" and "Limbaugh is narrowly ahead of me." I already knew he was full of it, but that just gives undeniable proof.

Thanks, for the 2ND serving... :D
