The Associated Press is reporting a shakeup in Air America Radio's top
management.

Mark Walsh, has stepped down as CEO of the new liberal Radio network and its
Program Director, David Logan, has been put on "administrative leave".

According to the AP, Walsh said, "he gave up his CEO title earlier this
month but will continue to pursue deals for Progress Media." Progress Media
is the parent company of Air America Radio.

There was no further clarification as to why Logan was no longer actively
programming the network.

In the interim, Air America Radio is being run by David Goodfriend who is
the company's lawyer. Goodfriend worked once as an advisor to the F.C.C. but
reportedly has no other direct radio experience except for a one-time job as
a DJ in Beloit, Wisconsin.

Taking over, at least temporarily, as Program Director is Lizz Winstead.
Winstead is a host for Air America Radio and is also the co-founder of
Comedy Central's "Daily Show".

Nice catch. "he gave up his CEO title earlier this month" suggests the
shakeup has something to do with the falling out with Multicultural
Broadcasting.

Here's a quote from today's Chicago Sun-Times:

*Even as it prepares to lose its Chicago broadcast outlet, Air America can't
keep it together. Despite plans to remain on WNTD-AM (950) until Friday, the
liberal talk radio network aired nothing but music and promotional
announcements Monday morning.

"When we return to Chicago on the right signal -- whether that's the day we
go off the air on WNTD or some period after that -- it's going to be for the
long haul," said Evan Cohen, chairman of Air America. "We realize that we
have some fence-mending to do."



Have you heard any Air America programming, maybe on the internet? There's
no compelling reason to listen, except in the way some people like to
rubberneck as they drive by a traffic accident. The news stories and
speculation are far more interesting. Evan Cohen's mention of
"fence-mending" probably relates to Air America's poor handling of the
Multicultural Broadcasting situation, as evidenced by the infamous "Liu-ser"
article posted on Air America's web page.

This isn't true. WTND may have aired the music loop (presumably because of
a downlink problem in Chicago), but elswhere, it was regular programming.
