That TOTAL snapshot in randr is useless. It is worth exactly what you paid for it. Can you bring something meaningful to the table other than some stupid unsubstantiated blog from nearly 10 months ago? I'm accustomed to radiclibs presenting thousands of ridiculous, fictional claims as fact during my 27 years of residing in the People's Republic of Madison. http://palamedes.dailykos.com/story/.../26/184127/853 And??? Is someone supposed to glean over the entire blog? Why can't you present something current and meaningful so as to bolster your claim that AA is so popular in NYC or elsewhere? After all, you brought up the claim... Who knows? Maybe AA is as popular as you seem to believe. But I haven't seen anything yet to make me think that it is. I noticed that of their 55 stations three of them are in Hawaii. Are the radiclibs so fearful that they may lose all those electoral votes that they need three outlets there? And that one Alaskan AA outlet surely must cover that tiny state! And two stations in Boston? Are their signal contours so weak that they need two stations to blanket that immense metropolis? Or are they perhaps weak stations in the exoburbs? The AA outlet in my Detroit was the former third-place (at best) full-time sports talker. Not much of a gamble for them to switch formats. There are already too many religion stations here. |

There are already too many religion stations here. I just reported what was said. Argue with them if you like. I'm not up for it. BTW: It ain't about votes. It's about entertainment first, then it's about breaking the stranglehold that the lunatic fringe has over talk radio. Beating the Weiner Nation in New York is a start. |

SOooooo anyone who does NOT "Think" like 'you' is a member of the Lunatic Fringe ? . i'm just stuck in the middle again ~ RHF . . . . . Franken has just stated on the air that: They are back in Chicago as of Thursday On a horrible, suburban, daytime station that has limited coverage and does not even go on the air till 7:30 AM in winter, and goes off by mid-afternoon. Quote: " Excerpt from this article by Robert Feder, in the Sun-Times on May 3, 2005 (scroll down about halfway): *In anticipation of a format switch under owner Newsweb Corp., WAIT-AM (850) changes call letters today to WCPT (for "Chicago's Progressive Talk"). Picking up WAIT's call letters is Newsweb's WSCN-AM (820). As tipped here in February, expect an announcement any day that the suburban daytime station will become a showcase for the liberal voices of Air America Radio's Al Franken, Jerry Springer and Randi Rhodes along with Jones Radio Networks' Ed Schultz. " They expect to start turning a profit later this year Not likely. Ratings in Portland, which were good to begin with, are up. Ratings in Portland, OR, which were good at the start, are off the mid-2004 peak by 20%. They have now slipped over two successive surveys. The ratings in Portland, ME, are non existent. Take your pick. |

Franken can say just about whatever he wants. That does not however make it true. I can't receive Air America here and I have no soundcard here in this computer. Could someone possibly burn me a standard CD of Air America so's I might be able to hear it first hand? dxAce Michigan USA |

First, you're more of a historian if your intention was to inform anyone about a 10 months old blog. Sheesh! Secondly, you're more of a relay of fiction since you have produced no credible evidence other than some one's say so! BTW: It ain't about votes. It's about entertainment first, then it's about breaking the stranglehold that the lunatic fringe has over talk radio. Beating the Weiner Nation in New York is a start. Oh! So now it's also about entertainment. I agree. Those Hawaiians listening to those three AA stations must be rolling off their islands in uncontrollable fits of laughter. |
