Looks like must see TV.

"Host Janeane Garofalo looks suicidal in nearly ever scene which she
appears."

Ironically, as the media exploits this latest fiasco, the on-air hosts
find their groove. Rhodes is thrilled to get her own cover story in
the Washington Post Magazine and a billboard in Times Square. Maron
has worked through his anxieties, as have Garofalo and Seder. The New
York ratings are unexpectedly high - Franken beats Rush Limbaugh, and
Rhodes outpaces right-wing rival Sean Hannity. Encouraged, management
is able to attract additional investors long enough to keep the
venture afloat through November.

In December 2004, a new round of investors brings Air America a
measure of financial stability. With 40 affiliates and counting, the
voices of the left are now being heard, loud and clear, from coast to
coast.

Now you know...the rest...of the story.

Air America gets a one-year birthday present from HBO on March 31 when
the cable network airs the documentary “Left of the Dial” by director
Patrick Farrelly and producer Kate O'Callaghan. The film tracks most
of the past year’s travails as the liberal network started, faltered
and was yanked off the air in some major markets. A Drudge Report
review of the documentary played up “The doubts. The lies. The bounced
checks. The heartbreak.”

Air America Radio president Jon Sinton told Billboard Radio Monitor
“This documentary is a sanctioned event. Matt Drudge, notwithstanding,
we’ve signed off on it. The filmmakers had access to us and it truly
is a story of birth, death and resurrection. It’s a very redemptive
story. We’re not displeased with it at all.”

An HBO release says the documentary “reveals the nervous expectations
of investors who staked their careers on the network,” including Evan
Cohen, Air America’s former chairman, David Goodfriend, who becomes
the network’s general counsel, and investor Doug Kreeger. Along with
profiles of many of the networks personalities, descriptions of
nervous debuts, shouting matches and other frenzied activity, HBO says
the documentary closes late in 2004 when, “in December 2004, a new
round of investors brings Air America a measure of financial
stability.” HBO pegs the affiliate roster at 40 by year’s end.

As of March 23, Air America has added another 11 stations and now
boasts 51 affiliates.

The film will debut on Thursday, March 31 at 8pm (ET), with other
playdates on April 5, 11 and 14.

To test your theory, you would have to put Franken on a signal equal to that
of the Rush affiliate. Except for, maybe, Portland, this has not happened.
On the other hand, in Portland it looks like there may be a near tie.

Franken would need ratings for that.
