They want to save Malloy by boycotting the station that fired him.
Here's a sample

82. Jeez everything I say on my own thread gets deleted. Imagine that.
Can we go over this slowly then for those who aren't quite up to speed.
I think the hate I see here, everyday, every month for the last few months, is more than my heart can bare. I think the attacks on people who might be just a tad farther left than you are f***ing evil and show no part of the democratic/liberal/progressive compassion that I embody myself with every single day I wake up.
What has happened to you DU? Where is that big tent now? It's a f***ing oxygen tent in a hopital now, and most of us aren't allowed to get any air.
We are only 69 days from the election and we are not only eating our own, we are gnawing up the corpses and spitting them into the street with glee.
You are not the people I happily and proudly fought beside in 04.... I dunno what you people are now.
But you are nothing like me and I am f***ing glad you aren't, it's your karma that will rue the day you hurt the people that tried to help you.
Amen and pass the gravy.
So, let's see if my mind can carry this logic.. which is boycott "financially" Air America, which is the entity that has lost advertising dollars, customers in the NYC market and other markets (see above post) in order to keep this Malloy fellow.
Solution: Give a concert like "Air America Aid" and raise the money for the financially troubled "AA"...or cut the salaries of their "stars". With issues like Plame, Wilson, etc..credibility is shot for advertisers (business that answers to their powers that be/shareholders) who do not want to be seen with "losers". They are in the business to make money, not lose.
Malloy is gone period from AA. They only need read his website. He will survive elsewhere. Boycott is just rhetoric.
Got to admire their "fight", however! Republicans in Washington could use some of that.
