It was obvious pretty much from Day One that “Air America” had an unwinnable business model. Talk radio that focussed on round-the-clock “progressive” (i.e.: fascist) talking points, staffed with “talent” that had none, is not the way to break into a market dominated by the likes of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glen Beck and the like. Say what you will about the right wing talkers, you must at least admit that they are talented and entertaining, and very often quite informative. But every time I ever heard Air America, it was some no-talent assclown screaming profane and ridiculous conspiracy nonsense, with a healthy dollop of Marxism. Well, fortunately Air America, even after the likes of George Soros dumped untold millions into it, is no more:
It is with the greatest regret, on behalf of our Board, that we must announce that Air America Media is ceasing its live programming operations as of this afternoon, and that the Company will file soon under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code to carry out an orderly winding-down of the business.
When Air America Radio launched in April, 2004 with already-known personalities like Al Franken and then-unknown future stars like Rachel Maddow…
Ahem. What did I just say? No-talent assclowns.

If only they’d understand that their whole philosophy of servitude to an all-powerful State also cannot “escape the laws of economics.”

Air America was in business,,,,,,,where? I have not heard any of their crap on a radio in several years, other than clips on the internet.
