They expect to start turning a profit later this year

Ratings in Portland, which were good to begin with, are up.

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.

"
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?
