The Associated Press reports more top executives at the new liberal network,
Air America Radio, have left the operation.

Evan Cohen, co-founder and his investment partner, Vice-Chairman Rex Sorensen
are both stepping down from the board.

The Associated Press says both Cohen and Sorensen declined to say what they
would do with their financial stake in the company.

The Los Angeles Times reports:

"Company President Jon Sinton told the Chicago Tribune...that Cohen resigned
because other investors weren't happy with how he handled a financial dispute
with affiliate stations in Los Angeles and Chicago, which resulted in the
network's going off the air in those cities, with no replacements yet lined
up."

The Times also reports, "Air America also missed its payroll this week by one
day, for what insiders called technical reasons."

The exit of Cohen and Sorensen continue a string of departures.

In late April, Mark Walsh, stepped down as CEO of Air America Radio and its
initial Program Director, David Logan, was put on "administrative leave".
