Flight Pundit

All righty then…what have you Phoenix people been up to anyway? You have taken away one of the best and brightest radio programs to hit the airways…one that has made money; that has a huge and adoring group of dedicated listeners. Or not? Is there a lack of an audience or what?? Why else would Air America suddenly close up shop and leave town??

Warning: This link takes one to a liberal blahblah wipe-my-tears blog:

You helped take an unrated, unprofitable AM radio station and pushed it to a tie for 3rd place out of 25 AM stations in Phoenix. You took that same AM station and made it profitable in less than a year and even after the sale was announced you stood by Air America Phoenix and we kept on making money even when our future was in doubt and we didn’t know when our “plug” was going to be pulled. In fact, the last month we were on the air was the 3rd best month we’ve had financially!

Air America Phoenix has now disappeared into the ether and Phoenix is left with multiple Christian formats, some in English and others in Spanish, several “brokered’ time stations (you know the radio stations selling you vitamins, good bowel movements and financial advice) a bagful of right wing “Conservative Talk stations” featuring Rush, Sean, Laura, Bill Bennett, Savage, Medved and all of their local imitators, three “Sports Talk” stations that live off the largess of their sister stations in the big corporate clusters that dominate the dial in Phoenix. Is anyone enjoying Tony Snow on KTAR…did anyone ask for him?

OK now I feel better about coming down to Phoenix…I know I won’t be exposed to this bulloney (hot) Air America crap. My ears are virgins- they have never been exposed to such horrors and I don’t intend to dirty them now.
