AIR AMERICA TUNED OUT?
http://www.nypost.com/entertainment/60684.htm

AIR America is close to losing its New York flagship station - knocking
Al Franken and his liberal colleagues off the air on their second
anniversary.
The network has a two-year lease with WLIB (AM 1190) that is reportedly
set to expire April 1 - and at least one reliable report says it is
"extremely likely" the deal will not be renewed.

Losing its New York outlet would be a serious blow to the fledgling
liberal radio network. "Radio Equalizer" blogger Brian Maloney - who
blew the whistle on questionable loans to the lefty network last year -
published the first report that WLIB was on the verge of evicting Air
America some time soon.


Air America's options for a new home are not promising. All of the
city's other strong-signal stations are spoken for, leaving only
weak-signal "fringe" stations that do not cover the entire city and
suburbs.

Air America parent Piquant LLC has reportedly been paying Inner City
Broadcasting - controlled by former Manhattan Borough President Percy
Sutton and his son, Pierre - $2.5 million a year to air Franken and
others.

An Air America spokeswoman told The Post, "It's business as usual," and
declined further comment.

Air America got unwanted headlines last year when it was learned that
previous management had received what investigators called an
"inappropriate" $875,000 loan - since repaid - from a Bronx charity.

Calls to Inner City execs were not returned.

In fact, you were so distracted you dumped this off topic political
bull**** right into the wrong newsgroup.

Which liberal views are NOT lies? Thank you think of any?

Good grief, Dan. The very *title of this thread* was a lie, or at least
a deliberate deception. Why not go find one of the hundreds of NG's
where right wingers congregate to GD people who don't subscribe to
their particular values and thought patterns? You could take this
thread, and the self-proclaimed jackass with you.


Come on back when you want to talk about boats. :-)

Have a happy Tuesday.

There are plenty of off topic posts here and most are left leaning.
Why did you get your panties in a bunch over this one?

Good question.

Are you, Bert Robbins, and John H, all "left leaning"? It's
difficult to figure out how "most" off-topic posts are such,
unless you either don't know right from left, or can't
friggin' count.

Maybe you guys figure "most" using the new Bush-math, the
same math which blames liberals for the budget deficit?

Fair play.

I've been ragging on the left end as well.

You see anything relevant to boating in the mule's post?
You see anything somebody would post here for any other reason than to
start a fight?

Why is it that so much of the OT stuff is essentially hateful or
divisive in nature?

You haven't been around here much lately if you think most of the
recent OT crap is leftist. Doesn't matter if it's right, left, red,
blue, democrat, republican, christian, moslem, jewish, or wiccan....if
it's posted here to start a fight nobody fricking needs it.


As for the panties, I'll leave those to the group who like to post
inflammatory crap on NG's using anonymous handles. Woo hoo. Big men.
"I'll make snide and crappy remarks and then hide behind my anonymity
or ever changing handle". Panties work well for guys like that, they
don't need any room in their underwear for balls.
