This headline made it sound like Air Amerika had gotten some type of public
funding, but it was just more money being pumped in by its investors. Hmmm.... I thought commercial radio was supposed to be funded by commercials. Or maybe that's only when it produces a commercially viable product. http://channels.netscape.com/ns/news...&w=RTR&coview= |

The owners of a private companies get to keep all the profits and don't have to listen to grumbling stockholders at the annual public meeting, or report lots of stuff to the SEC. There are reasons why companes go public, but in general they wish they didn't have to. (stock speculation is a whole other discussion.) It took several years for Fox Cable to need private funding. They seem to be doing fine, about 40 stations, plus XM, Serius, and internet streaming. -- a d y k e s @ p a n i x . c o m ---- |

Even the most viable neo-conservative product needs seed money from investors. A new network often takes 3 years or more to turn a profit. Sorry to disappoint you but that's just how business works.

Somebody is behind Air America..someone who hates America..the American
people will not support this station with advertising so WHO are the traiters pushing this down our throats. Sponsors have waiting times of YEARS to get on the shows of true americans like Paul Harvey, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity. This station needs to be investigated. -- Visit the Christian Defense League Website http://www.cdlreport.com/ |

No one's pushing anything down your throat unless you're opening wide. No one is forcing you to listen to Air America. Sponsors have waiting times of YEARS to get on the shows of true americans like Paul Harvey, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity. This station needs to be investigated. First, it's a network, not a station. Just because you disagree isn't sufficient reason for an investigation unless Paul Cameron has some free time on his hands and some religious fanatics to lend a hand. It is difficult to get ad time on Paul Harvey. After all there are only a few minutes of inventory each day. As for the other "true" Americans, you can probably buy time on Hannity at fire sale prices. These guys are entertainers with no political science background and not much creativity. One note sambas. Major advertisers don't go near these shows. In the real sense of America I don't think you'd be considered a "true" American with the kind of dictatorial, intolerant attitude you exude here. I doubt you're read much history. That's strange because history books usually have lots of pictures. Rich |

The have Orrick and GM and thag Greg Sinamone diet stuff and pretty
much the same ads as the Hate Radio programs. The people on Air America not only do not hate the United States, they actually understand the Constitution. The people you list, except for Paul Harvey, are agents of the people we revolted against in 1775. Their vision of America is pre-Teddy Roosevelt Gilded Age.
