Liberals Suffer Over Death Of A Friend
January 26, 2010 · carl · Print This Article
There’s an old saying that sometimes people express grief in unusual ways.
Rage, for instance, is one of them.
And right now the liberal loonies are going through a period of rage.
They recently suffered the death of one of their own.
(Truth be told, it was really the only one.)
Liberal talk radio outlet Air America.
Last week, Air America announced its official closure and intention to file Chapter 7.
For those who had been following news surrounding the weeping willow of talk radio, this was no surprise. While making a thin-kid splash with pseudo-celebrities back in 2004, the liberal network had a rocky history, replete with scandal, two bankruptcies and acquisitions.
Last week, Big Journalism’s James Hudnall reminded readers that Air America’s problems are not new. According to Hudnall, “After a scandal involving misappropriated funds from black school children it promptly filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy two years later. Franken, Rhodes and Garofalo abandoned ship.” (Come to think of it, perhaps that last part wasn’t so bad after all).
While Air America’s demise is surely a sad day for the precious few who enjoyed leftist radio programming, there’s no need for liberal lamentations. The left still dominates Hollywood, the university system and mainstream media, where adherents can find ongoing solace and a sympathetic informational stream – a triangular dominance of sorts.
