If you live in Seattle you may be able to get this station, if you can not then you can listen live online or even listen to the archived shows. Tacoma and Lakewood areas have great coverage (including McChord AFB and Fort Lewis).

This is not a big station. They have a mix of progressive, liberal, left, buisness, and even con shows.

It would help out a lot if many of you who live in this area or even those of you who do not would listen and promote the show I have linked below and this station so that we can make it grow and hopefully add more local progressive shows.

Join in on the blog at the link below. Please leave some comments.

This is something that may interest most of you and General Clark.

From the Equal Time Radio website.

There is a chance that he may be running late getting in from the airport, to get to the studio on time, so he may have to call in.
This could be a very interesting and informative show.

See what Frank has to say below:

Who Cares About Imus? Is he really all that bad?

Well my answer would be, I do! Not only do I care about what this hate monger says, I care about what the other hate mongers have been saying for a long time.

We seem to get all worked up, enraged and willing to take action when someone famous attacks people of color or disparages our candidate of choice (the Edwards fagot fiasco). Where is the rage and action when these hate mongers attack women?

I found this site while I was over at MyDD.com Seems like something we may be able to take advantage of. It also may be a way for the labor groups to get started being on the air.

This is where I first heard about it:

Thom Hartmann's views about Air America...

You know what?  He is right!

To all of those righties, gloom and doomers and even some here that have been saying Air America was dead.. read below. If you think "news corp" (faux news and all) was profitable and had no problems in the beginning then you would be soooo WRONG!

Thom Hartmann has a piece at Huffington Post that is a MUST read concerning AAR. 

What we need is someone like Gore, Soros or someone who has a vision and deep pockets. After the upcoming elections and the 2008 elections, look for people to be running to AAR and away from the righties.  The heartland needs a new "heart" and it is not rush limpball.

Air America Radio has NOT failed.

I decided to take my comment to Mitch and make it into a blog entry.

Tell me one buisness, especially in a new field (this is a new way of pushing progressive radio) that has not struggled in the first few years.

We do not have the luxury of waiting for individual stations and owners to pick up the few syndicated progressive shows. Most of the owners are righties and we needed to make a big splash and a big push. This is what they did.

Yes.. they could have had better planning and more money.

There are many buisnesses out there now that are working through bankruptcies and are not failing. Before we had the bankruptcy laws changed on us, individuals could use this tool to get back on their feet when they had problems, this did not make them failures.
