...or will the network be gone soon anyway? A N.Y.
Daily News column by Michael Goodwin
(http://www.nydailynews.com/news/ideas_opinions/story/192372p-166266c.html)
said the programming veered more toward offensive
humor and vitriol than thoughtful discussion, and
rumors are circulating that after they failed to meet
payroll last Friday,
a few more "payless paydays" may doom them.

Thought I heard WSNH (Green Stamp radio? S-n'-H... :)
up in NH was due to become an affilate, though.
NH is considered a swing state; it was won narrowly by
Bush in 2000. Different people (ranging from
guests on Let's Talk About Radio to some Yahoo
Groups about the fledgling network) have said that
swing states like N.H. might be more a likely target
for AA to try to get an affiliate.

Who knows, maybe Air America is trying to be extreme
to get attention. Maybe more thoughtful talk can
be found on NPR instead.
