Atlanta-based former 'Air America' operator now running 'Progressive Voices'
If you've been involved in Atlanta Democratic politics, you've probably at least crossed paths with Jon Sinton and his brother Steve.
Jon is an unabashed progressive voice who ran Air America in the mid-2000s and is now providing a similar venue in app form called "Progressive Voices."
"Many people look at AM talk radio and we never have had the beachfront property," Sinton said. "We had these crummy little signals. Now we have a more even playing field on the Web. And as the automobile industry creates a truly connected car, Progressive Voices can be easily accessible through that venue."
He and Reed Haggard, who ran sales at 99X, Air America and 90.1/WABE, spent $17,000 to create the app two years ago. The app features liberal voices, including Atanta talk show host Mike Malloy, Stephanie Miller, Ed Schultz and Thom Hartmann.
