Every time one Air America show is aired on a new station, the left treats it like a great victory for mankind. When an AA station goes off the air, complete silence. These articles are rare when that happens, and not easy to find.

I love this article, playing up the station's great "success" right up until the time they folded. Do these "people" even live in the same reality as we do?

Obviously this indicates the need to reinstate the "fairness doctrine".

[jazusamo]

Gee, we had tons of listeners but no one wanted to buy advertising. Sheesh...Advertisers go where the listeners are.

[Darkwolf377]

Like they said in It's A Wondeful Life (I think)...

"Everytime a liberal talk show dies, an angel laughs it's butt off!"

Good news in nuclear-free Missoula.

Why go to Air America when CNN is more readily available in most areas?

Just last summer, a Missoula radio station launched the town’s first progressive talk radio program, throwing down the gauntlet to the conservative radio hosts already dominating the airwaves.

Now operators of KNS, 105.9 on the dial, plan to drop the progressive talk radio format this week, citing weak advertising sales. Update: Air America went off the air Tuesday afternoon.

Another one bites the dust ping!

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

Do these "people" even live in the same reality as we do?

No, they make up their own "reality". We live in the real one.

Air America just had their plug pulled in Phoenix AZ today too.

It is interesting that so many of the Lefties on the radion are comedians by trade. I guess it helps to have a sense of humor to present that material . Then again lefty humor tends to the sneering boy-is-he-a-stupid-piece-of-scheiss-I-bet-he-wets-his-pants variety with the lowest level satire imaginable.

Nobody wants to listen to them b*tch, moan, whine and cry.

[wizardoz]

Throwing down the gauntlet? More like dropping a lacy little glove and hoping some big, strong man would pick it up.

[Semper Paratus]

My liberal friend was excited that Dead-Air America was picked up by a 50,000 watt station in Buffalo?!

[Lancey Howard]

Missoula?
The twentieth hijacker had a radio program??

Okay, I'll go back and read the article now. . . .

“But if it were my money it was losing, I don’t know if I could do it.”

That, ladies and gentlemen, is liberalism in a nutshell.

[Caipirabob]

When an AA station goes off the air, complete silence.

Thus the phrase "Silence is Golden".

[Khurkris]

"But Lesley Lotto, who resigned last week as the news and programming director for KNS after learning about changes in format and her duties, said she believes the KNS sales team didn’t wholeheartedly try to sell the product.

“The sales staff was not supporting it,” Lotto said, adding that while some sales team members had tried to market the liberal format, others, she felt, were against the programming and didn't have incentive to sell it.

Yeah baby...put that excuse on your resume'.
Salespeople with no incentive to sell...riiiiiiiiigggghhhttt...

an Eastlan ratings survey in Missoula

Some of these small ratings outfits can come into a small market like that and do a survey that'll make you look good, if the price is right.

Maybe it's the Eastlan Radio Survey and Storm Door Company.

[Tallguy]

Getting people to listen wasn’t the problem – liberal talk radio was a huge hit in Missoula from the beginning.

With all those listeners you have to wonder why they couldn't attract advertisers. Something isn't adding up here. My guess: the listernership wasn't as strong as they are claiming. Management is in full CYA-mode.

[Rocky]

They have lots of listeners but no advertisers? Then it's truly The People's Radio. They haven't sold out to the bourgeois capitalist pigs. They should be so proud.

Too bad there is this Real World out there, always confounding their ideology.
