Even the commercials on AA aren't annoying
I love this network... does anybody else agree that the commercials for left-wing causes are more informative than most.

3. Sounds like live mics aren't

calibrated right. Anything that's on a tape seems to come through loud and clear.

6. Why is everyone here falling all over Air America?
A few things you should be asking about:

There are "few" comercials; isn't it strange how many of those commercials are for the military?

The shows themselves come off as flat and boring. Sorry, I am just not hearing a lot of passion, it just sounds stiff and almost monotone to me.

The big one - Why are so many of the stations that Air America are broadcast on owned by ClearChannel? I think someone brought this up the other day.

:tinfoilhat:

Ok, so I am a paranoid, crackpot, conspiracy theorist... but suppose that AA is just a conspiracy.. a set-up, a sham, a scam, a hustle - designed to do two things: 1- Show America that there is "balance" and "equality"; 2- It is intentionally designed to fail and make it seem boring and silly and easily derided so that "undecided" listeners will hear it and switch to the competition.

:tinfoilhat::tinfoilhat::tinfoilhat::tinfoilhat::tinfoilhat:

Bigger conspiracy:

Suppose it is all just an illusion. That America is in fact a corporate plutocracy and we are all just serfs with the illusion of freedom. What then? :scared:

:shrug:

7. I hate RealMedia
I can not listen to the RealMedia stream, It sounds like they are talking Into a tin can. The volume keeps going up and down, and sometimes I have a difficult time hearing the guest or caller speaking.

The stream from the Randi Rhodes site Is fine, but the RealMedia stream from Air America gives me a headache. :mad:
