Do you think if Rush did this we'd hear more about this? My guess is is would be the lead story on 60 minutes.

It's George Bush's fault....

Has to be. He's responsible for all the ill's of the modern world. ;D

You are as accurate in your reporting as the Fox network. Did you read the story?

Smearing "liberals" when the topic is fraud by a former chairman who'd been forced out by the Air America board is a typical conservative tactic. Why not stick with the facts and let your prejudice rest awhile.

Damn Al Franken. How can he be such a funny bastard. Shame on him for stealing that money.

'Mr. Franken also said that the network's new owners "don't legally have to pay it back" - referring to the loans - "because we're a different company or something."

"But morally we do," he said.'

But have they? Will they? I doubt it. Air America just wanted the same deal as NPR I guess....Liberal tax payer supported airwaves.



Ok the Chairman stepped down. That's not the point. The point is, if this was a right wing radio station this would be on the front page of the Globe everyday.

The on air "talent" had nothing to do with this, other than under reporting it.

God forbid anyone smear liberals... because they are all so tenderhearted and well meaning.

Let's smear some more! Here is another Democrat "do-gooder".

Damn liberals - they hate America. They are trying to undermine democracy and create a totalitarian state, making huge cash payouts to industry, getting us into wars with no meaning or end, trying to instill a state religion at the expense of the religious freedom that underlies our history, and weakening environmental protections.

Oh wait, liberals aren't doing any of those things. They're spending all their time stealing from social service agencies. My mistake.

I think this is my favorite line from the article.

"Douglas reportedly told Indiana State Police detectives that she thought if she voted Democrat in the Anderson city election it might help her get a permanent job with the city."

Actually Sliders got a good point here. It's more of a guilt by association but Rych is not that far off either, because historically, that is usually enough for the main stream media to go after a Conservative Republican.

Right. Which is why you're hearing so much about Abramoff, right? Or why you've heard so much about DeLay taking huge donations from the Marianna's so that they didn't have to comply with US labor laws, yet could still put "made in the USA" on all their labels?
