What's Happening with Sam Seder and Majority Report?

[stepnw1f]

I just started listening and heard the end of a support call for Sam Seder. Is he being dumped by AAR?

1. Sounds like Sam does not know what is going to happen

But something is up and he is supposed to know soon

2. I've been wondering that too

I like Sam Seder and hope AAR doesn't dump Majority Report.

3. I Look Forward to Hearing His Shows

after I get out of work. I will be really bumbed out if he is axed.

4. It's the 2nd best show on AAR

Behind "The Rachel Maddow Show".

It's even better without Janeane Garofalo.

Sam is funny, intelligent, and passionate. I think AAR should dump Jerry Springer instead.

5. I Don't Care for Jerry Either

he's to wishy-washy for my liking.

6. i'd like to see them dump jerry and move rachel up to his spot

7. That would be a great change n/t

11. Hell, it would be an improvement if they dumped Jerry and.......

replaced him with three hours of muzak. BTW :hi:

8. No no no , Not Sam. He get's more out of an hour then Al and Ed combined.

He goes right into it and stays with it = 'it' being issues. I want talk about the issues, not fluff, and not 'I' stories. He is smart. He is funny. He is witty. He is an excellent interviewer. I want Sam.

9. I'm hoping air america sees that,and gives him a new show.

10. He set up an address where listeners can e-mail their messages

of support. It is [e-mail].

12. Sounds like contract negotiations are going on.

He probably wants a load of $ after Randi's deal. Not to mention he's carrying the show by himself with Jeaneane pretty much gone, I'm sure he feels like he deserves more bucks. I believe he does, he's excellent. One of the best AAR has.

What you are seeing with all this website stuff and making noises on the air that he might not be around is a bit of bargaining strategy.

So, if you like him, nothing wrong with giving him a little support by hitting the website.

13. What the hell will they do without Sam???

His show is pretty good... I prefer it to Ed and Franken. Besides... Who will they get to fill in when everyone goes on vacation??

14. I thought I read that Majority Report ratings are low

I like Sam too, I wish they would replace Franken with Sam.
