His critique of Air America reminds me of Frank Zappa's definition of Rock Journalism: "People who can't write interviewing people who can't talk for people who can't read."
There was indeed a political show that promoted the free exchange of ideas. This was done in a manner not familiar to conservative talk show hosts. When an opposing view was being voiced, the host listened and did not shout him down, O'LieLie style, or interrupt him repeatedly and put words in his mouth Sean Hannity style. This was the Al Franken show.
Air America has 87 stations that carry its full lineup. It's sale is coincident with Franken leaving and taking his multi-million dollar salary expense than with the demands of a bankruptcy sale which could have happened long before now. Bad news, Dittoheads: Air America will now be well capitalized.
How typical of your cited author. In the truest sense of all forms of conservative media, his writing was both preaching to the Kook Aid drinking choir and fact challenged.
