Air America is "doing well".

Other quotes from Franken:

--80 something stations
--tripled their audience
--1.25 million distinct listeners every week
--Will be profitable by its 3rd year
--Air America is not Liberal!

Of course, Tim has apparently done NO research and is totally unprepared to challenge his claims.

We'll see if he brings up the Boys/Girls club loan.

Well, for the first time in about 8 months. So they'll have to keep searching for that "regular viewer". LOL!

Okay, I had to look up what station this was on. So far I have seen two very unattractive people sitting at a table.

Doing well? This from Radio Equalizer:
Two days into the latest batch of big-city Arbitron radio ratings releases, not even one piece of good news has yet emerged for Air America.

With the liberal radio network's second anniversary just days away, that leaves little to celebrate when it comes to real audience growth. After fresh numbers from New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, San Diego and elsewhere, here's a quick scorecard:


--- In New York City, temporary network flagship WLIB-AM showed losses. From an overall 1.4 audience share last month, it fell to a 1.2 this time around.

In the broadest measurement of listeners, this critically important station still is unable to crack the top 20.

Meanwhile, Limbaugh affiliate WABC showed gains: from a 3.4 to a 3.7.

I already know what Franken is going to say.

I tuned in to see how Tim would treat him. So far
it's a puffcake interview.

I used to watch Russert years ago before I knew better. When he questions a Republican he gets his face all twisted up in that stern weasel look of his and hammers them with all the tough questions.
Liberals get a pass on his show every time.

No, Al, you said nuclear weapons program. Tim said "weapons program." Al says all of the folks on the intelligence committee were mislead. Franken dismisses all of Tim's quotes of dems and asks why won't they do Part Deux of the study in the intel committee.

He's actually being pretty tough now, nailing down Franken
on "Bush Lied", despite all the dems who voted for the war and
said saddam had WMD.

Franken is spewing more tripe out of his hole?

Time to take a dump.

Now THAT'S a "moral equivalency".

Rather than nailing Dems for trying to rewrite history,
Tim furrows his brow and asks Franken why they didn't
challenge Bush more.

Sheesh.

Franken just said the Dems didn't do their jobs...when they didn't even READ the reports before they voted to go to war...AND stand up on the Senate floor saying the exact same thing the BUSH did...

Franken is having a HARD TIME explaining that...and he even said "Why didn't Bob Graham tell his fellow democrats"...

that there were reports from intelligence that had differing opinion of whether there were WMDS./..

Russert is LETTIN Franken cull the "facts" to draw the opinion the BUSH lied...but he dems, who said the same thing weren't.

What a bunch of softballs by Russert..
