Doggone It, Air America Is Going Down

By Matt Margolis | May 13, 2004

I know this is getting redundant, but once again, things just aren’t looking very good for Air America:

Air America has shut its sales offices in Los Angeles and Chicago and is recasting its business plan, the network’s president said on Wednesday as troubles beset the liberal talk show network.

With Air America not broadcasting in those two cities after a financial dispute in April, network president Jon Sinton said, “There’s not much sense in having sales offices in cities where you don’t control a station.”

About 15 to 20 people were laid off in the closing of the sales offices, the latest sign of problems for Air America, launched on March 31 as a liberal alternative to the country’s predominantly conservative talk show culture led by right-wing icons like Rush Limbaugh.

Gee, who would have thought…

    oh well….now let’s get back to Bush and the horrible job he’s doing…..what in the hell is he doing asking for 50 billion more when he promised he wasn’t going to ask for more money until after the election?

    and if he didn’t ask for more when it was needed you’d blame him for that too… as long as bush is prez nothing will make you happy, admit it.

    no when he says he won’t ask for more money then does I think he’s a liar. Kerry will be just as bad as Bush you know. I don’t give a fuck about either of them. And if he didn’t ask for more money when it was needed I would consider him a man of his word. He never even said sorry for being so blatantly wrong. This is YOUR money too Matt. Don’t you care?

    Nicholas Berg is beheaded and all we hear about is Air America? Notice how nothing is mentioned about Iraq since things REALLY started going bad there.

    todd, I’d rather my money go towards the war than your welfare..

    and Todd, guess what? this is my last week of classes, you’re luck i’m writing at all. if you want to talk about that stuff fine, get your own blog and do it whenever you want… certain topics demand more of my time than others, and i have little to sacrifice at the current time

    Last week of classes, Matt? Now I really will back you up. I just finished finals last week. It sucked. I thought, “Woo hoo! I’ll write more on my blog when I get time off!” That didn’t happen though. I’ve written less. Anyway… Yeah, Jay, you really do sound stupid when you demand Matt write about something.
