![]() "Tom Betz" wrote in message ... Quoth "Corbin Ray" in : http://michnews.com/artman/publish/article_3231.shtml Richard Mullenax is a hypocrytical liar. I would point out to the peripatetic Mr. Mullenax that contrary to his rabid assertions, Air America didn't steal anything from anyone. Air America has contracted with Inner City Broadcasting, the owner of WLIB (run, by the way, by Pierre and Percy Sutton, African-Americans both) to lease WLIB. Inner City has been losing money on its full-time Carribean programming, and now has an opportunity to make a profitable deal, while at the same time providing a public service to the community of New York, with wide-ranging, informative and entertaining programming. Do black-owned radio stations not have the right to make a profit? Would Mr. Mullenax restrict what Inner City may do with its own property? Or is his problem with the deal more related to the nature of the public service being provided by Air America -- providing a counter to the ubiquitous hail of right-wing hate radio? I guess the simple question, shorn of all the rhetoric, is whether Air America replaced programming by the Coalition of Artists and Activists or not. Did they (i.e., is Air America now where this programming was previously)? I also find this rather confusing. You refer to wide-ranging, informative and entertaining programming. But I thought we were talking about Air America? |
