I have listened for a couple of weeks now, and
I'm bored out of my mind. Honestly, I gave it a
chance, but No-Doz should not be a prerequisite
for listening. I wanted Air America to be something,
but it's just too boring to believe.

I will certainly listen in a month or so - if they're
still around.

I'm sure that Rush and Hannity were no more entertaining when they started
out..

Maybe it just seems like weeks...

I'm not sure that Hannity qualifies as entertaining even now, but how
can you be sure what they were when they started out if you weren't
tuned in (assuming that's the case)? BTW, I could be wrong, but I
don't think the Air America hosts are exactly starting out, either.
The fact that the network is new doesn't necessarily qualify the hosts
as rookies. Franken, for one, has been honing his skills as a world
class windbag on a level with the most gaseous conservative
broadcasters for some time now.

ROTFLMAO!!!! Good one.. touche' :) But to answer your question, almost
nobody (irregardless of whether they have talent on loan from God) is very
good when they start out.. ;) I'm sure that even those famous debaters Mrs.
Lincoln and Douglas started out as something less than stellar.. we all
learn as we go.. (hard to learn any other way). :)

hehe, like they will get better at inventing stuff to talk about as time
goes on. Yep, I agree with that.

I think a "UFO" format might be a better prospect financially just in
case they win in November. Otherwise they are finished and it will
become obvious to even the blind what their existence is/was all about.

Rush Limbaugh will trash anybody who is the 'current' administration,
whoever it may be...thats the difference I don't think these newbies
have in mind in being the 'other' side.

I'm glad its a free country and they aren't piping this **** into my
home without an 'off' knob.

WLS picked up Rush early in Rush's syndication, and Rush was very good. I
don't know how Rush was in Sacremento, or how good he was as a DJ.

Hannity has a far more limited range than Limbaugh and fewer tricks. I
think most of the Air America hosts have similiar limitations.

Hannity hasn't gotten any better in the year+ he's been on the air.

Yeah, but couldn't Air America find some radio talent that's good right now?
Real talent is a rare commidity, and most people who aren't good now will
never be good. Why should Air America play proving ground for a bunch of
grade B and C talent?

And it's not like a host actually has to be a liberal to sound like a
liberal. I suspect there's plenty of talented phonies to pick from.

Come to think of it, is Franken using his stage "delivery" on the radio?
Whenever I've seen him on TV, his "delivery" is fairly subdued. Don't know
if that would translate all that well on Radio where you can't see his
facial expressions. Could be that he's doing his regular thing that always
worked for him on TV, without realizing it may not work the same, or as
well, on radio.

Makes you wonder when you hear folks rating Franken as a big yawn so
far...

-=jd=-


A subdued delivery isn't the best for talk radio, but I think the bigger
problem is that Franken doesn't seem to have a real quick wit. He's a
better writer than a talker.

However, Harry Shearer has a fairly good laconic radio show. But he works
from scripts.

For my money I think Randi Rhodes is the best thing going on this network.
Of couse that's a biased opinion since I've listened to her for years when
she
was broadcasting locally here in S. Florida. I can still hear her program
out of
West Palm Beach about 40 miles North of here with the help of a Radio Shack
loop. Apparently her boss here thought enough of her to let her keep her
time slot here and do her show out of New York.

Many years ago, I thought Al Franken was one of the funniest people
anywhere. SNL was my favorite show. I liked Al, Buck Henry, Steve Martin,
Mr. Bill, etc.

But now, at age 46, I find all of the above to be strangely lacking in
humor. It's not that I've grown up or anything, it's just that my sense of
humor back then was seriously chemically-enhanced. Now that I am sober, Al
Franken doesn't impress me much any more.

More than likely, hence the "give 'em a fair chance" sentiment.

I always thought Steve Dahl and Garry Meier were better than Rush....well,
for at least 5 years, at least.
