Did you hear the liberal talk show network Air America supported by Al Gore and Al Franken went bankrupt today

Question

Apparently, the New York Air America station replaced a station that had been playing Caribbean music. The Caribbean music station had gotten better ratings "IN NEW YORK!!!!" than Air America. If Air America can't garner any better ratings in a state as left as New York maybe they need to consider the possibility that their brand of culture is not even close to the center of mainstream US thought.

Answer 1

May God bless you! You just made my day a little sunnier :)

Answer 2

Sorry, neocon sheep, nothing will stop Air America or the Americans they represent.



From http://www.targetmarketnews.com/storyid08040601.htm

< (August 2, 2006) Air America, the liberal talk network best known for its commentator Al Franken, is moving its flagship operation from one New York City, black-owned radio station to another New York City black-owned radio station.



Starting September 1, WWRL-AM will be the new home for the two-year old network. Since it went on the air, Air America’s operations were based at WLIB, the black talk station owned by Inner City Broadcasting Corp. WWRL, which is owned by Access.1 Communications, currently features an urban talk format with commentators such as Armstrong Williams and Larry Elder.



“We are excited about our new affiliation and the platform this move will establish for Air America in the years ahead,” said Jim Wiggett, acting CEO of Air America, which airs on more than 80 stations plus XM Satellite Radio.



WLIB is reported to be making plans for a new progressive talk line-up that will be more locally oriented.



Access.1 Communications Corp. also owns and operates 7 stations in Shreveport, LA., 7 in Tyler-Longview-Marshall, Texas; 6 in stations in Atlantic City, NJ, and an NBC TV affiliate(WMGM-TV 40) in Atlantic City. The company also owns and operates SupeRadio; a syndication company that distributes over forty programs broadcasting to an estimated 100 million people combined, and is one of the two founding partners of American Urban Radio Networks.>
