Topic: Air America asking for donations
Maradon!

Apparently Air America is unable to attract enough advertisers has now resorted to soliciting for donations.

I guess even embezzling public funds just wasn't enough to keep them funded

First off, the radio culture is a little bit different from TV in the demographics it gathers.

Second, ABC, NBC, CBS, and CNN ARE all still absurdly left-biased, with Fox News being the only centrist news station that has existed probably in the history of television. People HAVE to watch the left-biased crap on TV because it's literally everywhere, so it stays afloat.

Haha, yeah right. Fox News is definitely right-wing almost all the time.

There's no such thing as an unbiased TV news source. They're all absurdly biased. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a moron.

What's wrong with soliciting donations? If listeners are willing to pay to keep their choice of programming on the air, so be it.

Honestly, people are so rabidly dickish about the fact that Air America probably doesn't have a wide enough audience to support itself on advertising revenue alone.

'Anonymous sources' can say many fun things. Just this morning one told me that you love to sodomize kittens.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

Why did the media sodomize Clinton with a salted baseball bat if they're so liberal? Why did they give airtime to the swiftboat vetarans for more book sales? Why did they not stereotype Bush as a drunk-driving cokehead in 2000 like they did Clinton with the Lewinsky thing and Gore with 'LOL ROBOT'? Why did they murder Dean by detaching the audio track of him trying to be heard over a noisy crowd from the background noise and playing it over and over and over again?

It did happen, but that Evan Cohen guy is such a scumbag it wouldn't surprise me if Air America didn't see any of that money (they can't find it anywhere in their records). And the new ownership is working on paying back the money Cohen took, to their credit.

Maybe they can sell lemonade to raise the money cuz they're so poor, am I right, Maradon? LOL.

The political part of Maradon's mind doesn't exist in the same reality that we do. Just give it up and chuckle along with the rest of us.

What.

If everyone around you is a cannibal and you don't eat people, doesn't that make YOU the cannibal?

Not that Fox is centrist at all.

Being a cannibal or not being a cannibal isn't a good comparison. If it's seventy degrees out, that might not be very warm at all, but it could be considered real warm if every other day is about fifty degrees. Cannibal is an 'is or isn't' sort of relation while this is a degrees and perspective situation.

Air America is about as leftist as you can get, but that doesn't make Fox News centrist.
