Air America Radio returns to Phoenix!

[silverojo]

Though this is in Arizona, it's important to let everyone everywhere in America know about this, so they'll take heart and know that WE BEAT THE CHRISTO-FASCISTS! They donated piles of money to buy out AAR, but the only kept it off the air for one lousy month!

Randi Rhodes just came on the air at midnight, and we're celebrating! How can one month feel like an eternity, right?

If we can triumph like this in a solid red state, there's no telling what we can do elsewhere...hope is still alive!

One interesting note...there's no word about Ed Schultz being on the schedule anymore. Guess he should've kept his mouth shut when he implied that the AAR Phx fund-raising might be a ripoff.

I think I'll go e-mail Ed and gloat. :evilgrin:

1. Way to go !!!

Don't give Big Eddie too hard a time, he's a great guy !! He and Randi Rhodes did great on Larry King this weekend. I hope you get him back too!

[poverlay]

2. I'm ecstatic! Going to go check it out right now. Thanks! n.t.

[shenmue]

3. Good for you

I listen to them online every day.

[Greyhound]

4. Great news! Where? Same station? AM, FM?!? Give us some details! n/t

[LaPera]

10. It's 1480 AM. I'm so excited!! I've had my car radio programmed for

this station for a week in anticipation for the big day! Also, have the radio at home tuned in. It's great to have AAR back!

[Wheezy]

14. Same here!

The latin music was nice to listen to the past week, but I WANT MY AAPHX!

I'm so happy, I'm giggling.

[LaPera]

5. Please keep us up to date on the vindictive neocons, they will slander and

try other tactics...I would be very curious as to what they begin to say, do & lie about!!!

I donated twice, I live in CA but I'm very happy for Arizona!

11. LaPera Thanks!!!

There is a special place in Heaven for great souls like yours! Thank You!

[readermostly]

12. Just wanted to also thank you, LaPera, and everyone who helped

get Air America back on in Phoenix.

[GOPS Worst Fear]

7. I live here in Phoenix too.

They just posted the line-up. Off is Stephanie Miller, Ed Schultz, and local Charles Goyette. Hope they can at least get Steph back later..

[Wheezy]

15. Do you know what happened to Charles? Did he take a job somewhere else? nt

[saracat]

16. Charles refused to come bavck. He wanted more money

and it is a good thing he is gone. He publicly advised people to vote aganst Democrats. He actually encouraged people to vote against Kerry in 2004. Charles is a libertarian. He campaigned for Baldernick on the air, but this was not appropriate on AAR. He has the right to his opinions but we should not pay him to attack us! JMHO. And I liked Charles.

[Wheezy]

22. Ah, I had no idea.

Thanks. I didn't catch his show very often -- it was always on when I was getting everybody out the door in the morning. What I heard of him, I liked, but I didn't know about the things you mentioned.

[coffeenap]

17. Sounds like they went for the full AAR lineup, which Ed and Steph

are not a part of.

[Inland]

9. I heard Ed say great things about the Pnx station managment

and talk at length about some well previous station being bought by some funded group to become, I think he said, the sixth christian station for phoenix. He specifically named the station manager. I don't know what else he said.

:applause:

[Arugula Latte]

23. Great news -- and lucky you for being Ed-free!

I wish we could dump him from our A.A.R. affiliate, KPOJ in Portland.

[laheina]

24. Woo-hoo!!

I think that having our own news outlets is an important cornerstone in taking back our country. :)

I luv AAR.
