I've posted this twice and I'll do it a third time:

It's a scandal...

(a) only if Republicans are involved

(b) only if the MSM decides to report on it

 Sitting Out The Scandal; Comparing Coverage: MSM, Talk Radio, Blogosphere -- If you're running Air America Radio right about now, are you

A) horrified your dirty secrets are being aired by bloggers and others, or

B) thrilled, knowing it will shortly be back to business as usual, since the mainstream media has decided to look the other way at your network's past dirty dealings and recent conflicting statements.

 Air America and the race hustlers -- But the raging reverends are nowhere to be found as a scandal involving the liberal radio network Air America and a Bronx, N.Y.-based inner city charity for poor children brews... Race hustlers care about only one color: green.

 Transcript of Michelle Malkin on Hugh Hewitt's show discussing the Air America scandal -- Once again doing the job of mainstream media, these two biggies of the blogosphere, Michelle Malkin and Hugh Hewitt, spent a couple of segments earlier this afternoon comparing notes on the Gloria Wise/Air America scandal...  as some bloggers have pointed out, Leon H. at Macho Nachos has pointed out, and Stephen Bainbridge pointed out earlier, even previous to this last scandal, that the former people who were involved in Progress Media, which was run by Evan Cohen, many of them were still retained when Piquant LLC was formed. So this whole alibi that Air America has been giving, that this was new ownership, and they had no idea what was happening, it just strains credulity.  And there was a lawyer who commented over at Captain's Quarters today, who said that a lot of the financials from Gloria Wise should be available to any mainstream media person who wants it. So, I'm going to start looking into that angle.

The Muckraking N.Y. Times (John Roberts' children, by Michelle Malkin) -- Well, now we know why the NYTimes hasn't bothered to cover Air Enron/Air Scamerica. They're too preoccupied with prying into the adoption records of Supreme Court nominee John Roberts' young children,

 John H. at Power Line: "[N]ow that the Times' investigation into John Roberts' four and five year old children has fizzled out and been abandoned, can they free up some resources to start checking into Air America's financial chicanery?"

 

Fortunately, plenty of others are covering the story while the Times twiddles its thumbs. The latest:

Investor's Business Daily
Washington Times
New York Post
Power Line
Radio Blogger
Hugh Hewitt (Hugh's new Daily Standard column is here).
Edward Morrissey
Rush Limbaugh
Austin Bay
Leon H. at Macho Nachos has a follow up on Air America and legal matters
Scrappleface spoofs: "Air America Hires Dan Rather as Scandal Spokesman"

The New York Sun's David Lombino is undoubtedly digging further.

And, of course, Brian Maloney at the Radio Equalizer remains the first and last stop for news and analysis.

The Air Out There (What did Al Franken know, and when did he know it?)

-- It appears that Air America, the liberal talk radio network, received in its startup period a six-figure loan from the Gloria Wise Boys and Girls Club in the Bronx. This is an organization that receives most of its funds from government agencies and is supposed to provide services to children and Alzheimer's patients.
