The Air Is Let Out Of America

Word that Air America is going dark.  They never really were a viable operation, although you wouldn’t know it from the news release on their website.  They have struggled from the very start and yes these are tough times to be in the radio business, but when you combine poor economics will programming almost no one wants to listen to, the combination spells disaster.   Although I’m a Conservative radio talk show host, I do enjoy a good debate and listening to opposing points of view.  I like to hear what others (even those with whom I disagree) believe.  But the plain truth is that Air America was anything but clever or cutting edge talk and as the rating showed across the country, a failure. So, good bye Air America.  Don’t look for a wing in the museum of broadcasting anytime soon.
