12. Yeahhh you're right....sort of....It is to balance out the CONs'
one sided attack on America. So we agree on something! :-) (Although I'm not sure you intended it that way).

14. The brain chemistry is too different...
I just don't think it will work for liberals...Our own special brand of brainwashing? It just doesn't seem like this is how libs carry on.

Jeanne Garafalo...who cares what she thinks? Has she done anything outside of Larry Sanders that was remotely entertaining...what a loser! She's right up there with Susan Estrich in my list of liberals who talk too much...

16. and how should libs carry on? let RW assholes do all the talking?
neo-cons are monopolizing the radio waves with their RW agenda. it is either conservative shit or conservative shit. this environment works for rethugs because they are crybabies.

they can only function when they own the playground and can bully everyone. otherwise, they break down and resort to crass guerrilla tactics.

Garafalo is intelligent and articulate. She is not only qualified, she is a breath of fucking fresh air from the constant drone of the ilks of dr. laura, drudge, and limbo.

After years of having to put up with the relentless babbling of the RW and owning all the damn radio stations, ANY talk from the left is nothing short of a GODSEND. I'd love to see Tim Robbins, Bill Maher, and Alec Baldwin on air too. They can kick any repuke ass. Who do the repukes have? Dennis Miller and...the gropinator. Enough said.

10. I couldn't find if they were going to stream it...
Air America Radio has signed actress and comedienne Janeane Garofalo, hip hop icon Chuck D, radio personality Randi Rhodes, and political humorist Sam Seder to join Franken at the network. Environmental activist Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., “The Daily Show” co-creator Lizz Winstead, and business-of-the-media analyst on the public radio program “Marketplace” Martin Kaplan will also join the network.



The network has unveiled its current weekday and weekend line-up:

Monday-Friday

Morning Sedition: 6:00-9:00am

This is a fast paced morning show that will entertain and engage audiences with wit and political satire. It will feature the latest news, offering up to-the-minute interviews with newsmakers, analysis and strong opinions.

Co-Host: Marc Maron

Co-host: Sue Ellicott

Co-host: Mark Riley



Unfiltered: 9:00am- 12:00pm

Air America’s midmorning program is a showcase for conversation about the political and culture state of the union. Unfiltered introduces listeners to fresh new voices not available in mainstream media.

Co-host: Lizz Winstead

Co-host: Chuck D

Co-host: Rachel Maddow



The O’ Franken Factor: 12:00-3:00pm

After debunking right-wing propaganda in his bestselling books Lies, and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them and Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot, Al Franken is taking the fight to America's airwaves--and he's doing it drug-free. With his co-host, veteran radio personality Katherine Lanpher, Franken will deliver three hours a day of fearlessly irreverent commentary, comedy, and interviews. Franken and Lanpher have a mean streak a smile wide. The O'Franken Factor will energize fans, infuriate liars, and deliver the truth--in what Al Franken likes to call the Zero Spin Zone.

Host: Al Franken

Co-host: Katherine Lanpher

Producer: Billy Kimball



The Randi Rhodes Show: 3:00-7:00pm

Randi Rhodes has spent the last 20 years burning up the airwaves in southern Florida with her pointed and provocative brand of talk radio. Combining live interview, call-in and commentary, Randi engages her audience with a passionate presentation.

Host: Randi Rhodes



So What Else is News?: 7:00-8:00pm

Based in Los Angeles, this is a one-hour program showcasing the intersection of politics, media and popular culture. This program will feature analysis and reports from the presidential campaign, as well as a daily reporters’ roundtable on how the news of the day is affected and reflected by the media. Marty will also cover the spinning of the news with a regular segment called “The Corrections.” This is also the place to hear the political voice of Hollywood, with celebrity guest interviews from the entertainment industries.

Host: Marty Kaplan



The Majority Report: 8:00pm-11:00pm

This program will introduce new, younger voices and opinions, with live guests from the world of politics, the arts and entertainment.

Host: Janeane Garofalo

Co-host: Sam Seder



Saturday and Sunday

Air America Radio’s weekend line-up will offer more original programming, like Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Mike Papatanio’s “Champions of Justice,” a program that brings a fresh and entertaining perspective to talk radio from the top legal and social issues focused minds in the country. Additional programming will include Best-of Air America Radio and Best-of-O’Franken Factor as well as other original programming to be announced soon.
