Is this link supposed to support the "lying sleazebag" comment? All I
see is a post by someone named "Nick." who's appears to have no clue
what a "neocon" is but supplies no other info. Am I in the wrong
place?

That's what all the tenants say when the landlord shows up!

Hard to believe, too. And I don't believe it.

We'll see soon whom a judge believes.

One of the posters on the chi.general board says he was listening on the
internet feed, and Air America has some sort of advertising beef with the LA
station. Air America put a stop on the LA check. The station owner
retaliated by pulling the plug on the LA and Chicago broadcast.

When you don't pay, you don't get to play radio.

And that is exactly what the Air America folks are doing!

Playing radio... it's almost as funny as watching my puppet Mikey dance!

It's been updated, and is now he

Who knows where it will be by the time you get there!

Air America's court filing is he

Interestingly, it turns out that besides being a sleazebag, (based on
political donations documented at FECINFO.COM) Arthur Liu is also a
republican.

Just as the Pinkoes don't keep their word, they don't
pay their debts as well.

No big surprise, actually.

MSH,

Its only fair and balanced that since 'conservative talk radio'
makes so much money for the Broadcasting Industry.

Therefore 'liberal talk radio' should by it's opposite and
opposed nature be a money loser.

Why - The very Truth and Justness of 'liberal talk radio'
should qualify it for Public Funds and Support from every
American Tax Payer. PBS NPR, PRI and now 'liberal talk radio'.

Maybe Advertisers and supporters of 'conservative talk radio'
should be required to pay a 100% Tax that would be used to
underwrite 'liberal talk radio' programming.

Maybe the Mega Stationed "Evil Empire" Clear Channel should
be required to provide Equal Access and Equal Time on a
Station-per-Station and Hour-per-Hour basis for every minute
of the hateful 'conservative talk radio' with the more
enlightened 'liberal talk radio'.

.... but then again that was Against the Law :o)

Putting a stop on a check strikes me as a strange business move. This
problem could go to court weather or not the check is stopped, so I'd think
Air America would rather broadcast while the whole issue is being settled.

Of course, this advertising-check stop story is second hand to me. I'd
don't know any of the real facts. The station is playing some Asian
language broadcast now.

Oh, sure, the KoolAid drikers have been duped!
Now it all makes sense.

I choose to believe they've exhibited, at the least,
poor judgment in locating a suitable broadcast
outlet for their drivel, but I suppose you can believe
whatever you like, if that makes you feel better.

In broadcastspeak, Air America is a "clambake."

Poor judgment, coupled with detestably boring programming,
equals failure right out of the gates.

Too bad, I really looked forward to a diverse viewpoint,
to be educated about what the Democraps stand for, but
all I've heard to date is, "George Bush and his administration
suck, 'n stuff."

The interview with the fellow who wrote "Perfectly Legal"
was the sole worthwhile effort to date.
