Air America Fire Sale
Documents: Bankrupt liberal radio network to sell for $4.25 million
FEBRUARY 7--Bankrupt and about to lose Al Franken, its marquee star, Air America Radio is set to change hands for the bargain price of $4.25 million, according to new court documents. The sales figure was disclosed in a purchase agreement filed yesterday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York. According to the agreement, the deal between Air America's owner, Piquant LLC, and a firm controlled by Stephen L. Green, a New York realtor, calls for Green's firm to repay up to $3.25 million in loans provided to Air America after the liberal radio network filed for Chapter 11 protection last October (the company listed debts of $20.2 million). Green's company will also give Piquant LLC $500,000 and pay off up to $500,000 in network debts (the bulk of which, $349,000, is owed to the network's Manhattan landlord). Green's bid topped by more than $1.25 million the nearest offer received by Air America, according to a motion filed along with the purchase agreement. An excerpt from that motion can be found below. Court documents do not specify how many bids were received for the network, though a filing notes that "more than ten interested parties" signed nondisclosure agreements and were allowed to review confidential network financial and corporate records. While Green controls the corporation purchasing Air America, two of the firms that were pre-bankruptcy investors in the radio network will "collectively own a minority interest" in the Green company. The Air America purchase is expected to be finalized at a court hearing in the next week. Franken, who is planning to run next year for a U.S. Senate seat from Minnesota, is scheduled to do his final Air America show on February 14."

There was a liberal radio station why don't I hear about these things? And more importantly, people still listen to the radio?;)

I listen to radio 24/7. Where have you been? National Public Radio is the most reliable, consistent coverage of the news in the media universe. They don't need fire or blood to lead a story.

I listen to Air America occasionally, but it's still commercial radio. And commercial radio sucks.

Weird. I still stream it in every day. NPR is going strong too. I believe Air America was bought -- can someone check on that for me? I won't be able to call our local Air America radio station til sometime tomorrow, after I dig out another hairball from the printer.
Sorry, CWN, I do believe you haven't gotten rid of the other side yet, honey.
Hugs,
Pookie

No one listens to Air America for the same reason I skip over half of the libs' posts on here...they're the same old tired rhetoric of hate and lies.Â*Â*No one wants to listen to that crap.

It's the same reason libs lose in the presidential elections.Â*Â*In 28 years you've only won twice.Â*Â*Libs just don't connect with the people of America.

Until the libs change their attitude and stop the hate, lies and treat Americans like human beings and not just a vote you will always be the ugly girl who never gets laid at prom.

I get Air America on XM and it is on especially during Al Franken and Randi Rhodes. It sure is better than the bigots on the other channels.

Smoking all that shit makes you merely repeat the RNC/Freeper talking points because it's too damned hard to come up with original thought on your own. We've heard that "hate and lies" BS but the voters in November refuted that tired GOP talking point once and for all. You didn't see it coming because you are still clueless about the reality on the ground.

And if you are going to whip out facts make sure you're not whipping them out of your ass. If you subtract 28 years from today you get 1978. There was no presidential election in that year so your attempt to muddle history by cutting the time off just AFTER Jimmy Carter was elected is duly noted. In the past 30 years, Democrats have won three times, twice defeating incumbent presidents, not an easy task. Only one Republican defeated an incumbent Democrat. You win these elections because of the scare tactics you employ. There is no "connecting" with the American people. Scaring the American people during election years is a Republican trait.

As for being out of touch with America, that's the ship you are sailing on now otherwise known as the USS George W Clueless. You are the ones out of touch.

Nice prom analogy. It would take a bonafide Republican to go to the prom just to fuck somebody. The "personal responsibility" mantra doesn't apply on prom night, I guess. Figures.

I would respond to you, ECW, but I'm afraid you might whine/cry and leave again stomping out of the room like a 5 year old.

We'll all be more sensitive so we don't upset you. We know how you get now when things don't go your way.

If you had anything of consequence to say, you would have said it, my "feelings" notwithstanding. That's your trouble, you never have anything of consequence to say. It's just parroting RNC talking points, aping Rush or more "Yep! Me, Too!" posts that we have all grown to expect daily from you. Save your amateur analysis for one of your lame presidential candidates when Hillary, Obama or John-Boy whips his ass in 2008.

That's great, son.Â*Â*Now daddy has to go to work and do big-boy stuff.Â*Â*You stay here and play and try and stay out of trouble.Â*Â*If you get upset and feel like stomping out of here again just stop...count to 10 and control your emotions.Â*Â*

I'll stop by occasionally to check in on you from time to time.

Will you be as incoherent and irresponsible at work as you are when you post here? Too bad for them. Hit the head and blow a few bowls so you can deal with reality there, sport. Better yet, turn on Air America for some truth to bring yourself out of that haze you always seem to be in.
