So a lot of listeners have been complaining to WMAL (the only conservative radio station in Washington, DC) via their Facebook page and other mediums about Al-Jazeera commercial ads airing during programming, especially during Mark Levin's show.
Is this good or bad?
I mean, revenue is revenue, no?
Now WMAL can't be blamed for being a 'racist' & 'bigoted' radio station -- they are airing ads for an organization that does not endear itself to WMAL's values and principles, so WMAL can't be 'that bad', right?
I don't see the big deal, but maybe it's because I'm too well immersed into WMAL's around-the-clock programming that I don't mind that much...
A lovely weekend to all...
Fox News Channel is running advertisements also. The channel is now blocked on all cable boxes in the house. See if Comcast maybe gets the idea that “no thanks,” this was a mistake....
YMMV

There are ads all over the tube for it, plus Directv has added it to our lineup. I haven’t activated it to my remote and don’t plan to do so.
W(MAL) Mal - French for sick, bad.
But, but it’s the new cool thing! All the hip kis are tuning in! If you don’t, you’re square.
At least I can hope anyway.
Saw an ad for Al Jerkzeera the other day on the USA Network.
They can’t be any worse than MSNBC.
” See if Comcast maybe gets the idea that no thanks, this was a mistake....”
I really doubt that Comcast cares what channels you locally block.
Guess it should be looked at as getting to know your enemy.
Somewhat off topic, but she is awful. She sounds like a high school girl. I was wondering why they hired her and then all was explained when I googled her.
Perdogg: Refer to post #30.
Cute gal...
She’s not as bad a news reader as Lauren Murphy...
Gawd, listening to Lauren talk is like nails on a chalk board...
She says “com” like a valley girl.
>> They cant be any worse than MSNBC <<
MSNBC definitely is worse.
Also, when I’m overseas, I watch AJE in preference to CNN-International. The latter is usually more anti-American than is AJE!
