AA will never thrive. If I were an advertiser, I would not touch them, or their listener base, even if the advertising was free.

Considering the fact that Al Franken denied Air America was not stealing funds from that youth club (which of courser they were) I would be skeptical of anything this clown says. Therefore this is the puffiest of puff pieces.

"Air America has increased its share... by 40 percent"

If you have one listener and you increase to two that would be a 100 percent increase!

Al should thank his mom for listening.

"But they also note that Air America could slowly build its base. "

Pigs "could" fly, too.

I think we're doing better than people thought. We're on the air over two-thirds of the country," Franken noted

Another example of how liberals measure success. Not how many people want to listen, or how many advertisers, but simply how many places you have bribed or cajoled into providing welfare for your cause.

Red Rock will find out after the February Arbitron radio ratings are released whether Franken and his Air America cohorts are drawing an audience here.

They have done miserably in every arbitron they have gone through so far. It is unlikely this will be different.

Each time the get a new radio station to pick them up, they get loads of great press about how great they are doing.

Air America trails conservatives, but market's growing

Suuure. If Air America were a horse, you'd shoot it.

But they also note that Air America could slowly build its base

Any slower & they'll be going backwards!

There are two kinds of liberals. The pseudointellectual moneyed ones, and the lower class. Neither of them listen to AM radio. The lower class are too busy listening to rap music, the upper class have never even heard of "AM" radio.

[Fierce Allegiance]

Industry followers say Air America still trails conservative programming - including Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly - in nearly all major markets. But they also note that Air America could slowly build its base.

If they were writing about a conservative show, they would state how there is near zero market and it is doomed to utter failure. All in the perspective.

[newcthem]

I would bet that this ratings includes AFR since Franken was forced on our troops.
I'm sure talk radio is in fear of Franken catching up. What a joke. (Kind of like calling Kerry a war hero)

"...could slowly build its base."

Coulda, woulda, shoulda...bring it on pink boys!

[talleyman]

Al Who? Air What?

[mewzilla]

Snort.

Twice nothing is still nothing.

Leave it to the libs to celebrate that fact.

[CaptRon]

she likes Franken's comedy

Whatever it is he does, it has never been what I'd cal 'comedy'. It has to be funny to be 'comedy'.

[CommandoFrank]

But they also note that Air America could slowly build its base.

Would'a, could'a, should'a...

How can any sane individual listen to a steady diet of hate talk from the likes of Franken and Rhodes. I tried listening to them to get a take on their view and got so tired of the 'we hate everything conservative' mantra and their totally idiotic solutions to whatever they were against.

Apparently I was not alone as the radio station canceled them.

[jveritas]

Maryland-based Talkers Magazine, which follows the talk radio industry, figures that Limbaugh reached an average of 13.75 million people each day in fall 2005; Franken only 1.25 million. The two are on the air at nearly the same time in most markets.

Rush Limbaugh has over 10 times the audience of Franken and the title of the article uses the very weak word of “Trail” to describe that this joke Air America has been totally annihilated by conservative talk shows.

[DBrow]

I tell everyone I know to listen to Air America, and I tell them that it's the forefront of Democrat Party thought. Most people get back to me and tell me that it certainly does not represent THEIR Democrat party, what the heck was I thinking?
