Default AIR AMERICA In Deep Financial Crisis

Story on Drudge says Air America is strapped for cash, and had less than they claimed when they started. Looks like maybe the check for Chicago did bounce.

As predicted by many, it was a doomed effort from the start.

I've no idea what Profit Stairs prediction may have been.

Maybe we need a personality on Air America that abuses drugs and that
has been divorced a few times. You know - a real moral voice.
Someone that kids can look up to and can be entertaining at the same
time. Yea - that's it.

Oh - buy Grundig.

Maybe they should book profit Stair a few hours a day. Not sure if
he's divorced, but his thing for "young sisters" would certainly make
him quite a *moral voice*.

Profit Stair's talent for fund-raising should have Air America out of
debt in no time.

Maybe he could sell tiny-tennas on Air America to go with the radios
he sold on WWCR.

Yeah, just where has Brother Stair been? Sinners are a dime a dozen, but
Brother Stair is missing a chance to preach to sinners who are willing to
**** away a fortune.

Air America should give their whole operation to Brother Stair. His lean
and mean business practices would have Air America in sound financial
condition in no time. No more big salaries. In fact, no more salaries at
all. The Air America staff will be moved to the highly cost-efficient
worker housing development of Walterboro. They better not expect any more
$70,000 parties, either. Not in this lifetime, anyway.

However, some of Air America's ladies might feel a bit, um -- mature for
Brother Stair's septuagenarian interest. I suggest they tell the Prophet --
"Please don't think of me as twenty-eight years old. Think of me as two
fourteen year olds!!"

Drudge only stole the first part of the article and left out the part
that said things have stabilized and the company seems viable for the
time being.

What did Drudge steal? The facts he presented were indeed true...

Still seems pretty shaky to me, I guess time will tell.

After just having had a "discussion" with you about lifting an entire
article and posting it here, it curious to see you accusing Drudge of
"stealing" anything. But what's a little consistency, huh?

In any event, I'm curious as to where the article said -anything- has
stabilized. The article indicates that a new company has been
created with a "simplified business plan" and is "following a more
conventional route, allowing local stations to pick up portions of the
lineup. It's on the air in New York and 14 other markets including
Portland, Ore., and Chapel Hill, N.C." It also notes the absence of
two significant markets--LA and Chicago. Perhaps you read a different
article.

Anyone have a list of Air Amerika sponsors, so I know who to boycott?

Bite me. Drudge makes 6 figures off his web site. I don't make dick.
