Kudos to XM Radio America Left - NO LIONEL!!!!!!!!!! |
|
Just got back from a weekend back home and it was sooooo nice listening to TYT and Stephanie in the morning. I do wish they had Thom on live and Ed on replay and I hate that Rachel Maddow's first hour is Race To The White House but I can now listen to Progressive Radio in the morning on XM again.
Big time improvement.

Lionel was on during my morning commute and I could stand only a few minutes of him at a time. What a pompous tool -- glad he's gone. Nice to listen to TYT instead.

4. I've never listened to Stephanie Miller before.... |
|
She's pretty cool. It might take a little getting used to her format and her guests/sidekicks.

7. But....but......he was so highly rated as an up-and-comer by "Talkers" magazine!!! |
|
He is going to help save Air America, according to the Green brothers.
Gimme a break. :puke:
And just think... that shit-for-brains Green dumped the intelligent and sharp-witted Sam Seder for that unlistenable fount of craptacular talk radio "Lionel"..... :dunce:
I concur; a massive improvement. :party:

10. Exactly.. I was a huge supporter of Air America |
|
but they made some very bad decisions. Just glad that there's still NovaM and Jones Network so Progressive radio will have a voice.

9. Amen. Ditching Lionel and bringing on TYT was a huge no-brainer n/t |

I have Sirius where I get to listen to Sirius Left, but they have about 10 minutes of talk and 50 minutes of the WORST AM radio-style commercials every hour. It's intolerable. I PAY for Sirius so I don't have to listen to that shit. Is it like that on XM? My other Sirius stations are nothing like that. I get no commercials on the music stations.

There are a lot of commercials on the talk channels, none on the music channels.

8. Well, one thing going for XM |
|
You listeners to XM do not need to listen to the wimpy Alex Bennett or the racist, homophone Lynn Samuels. I cannot tolerate listening to anything on Sirius during the day other than the hour of Thom Hartman.

11. Won't matter soon, once the merger's complete |

I'm guessing that we won't get BOTH their left-leaning channels, so there will be some "cutting"..wonder who gets the axe..
I'm also guessing that their PATRIOT :puke: and other right wingers will see their space expanding...

13. Right, Sirius will have have loads of right-wing republican assholes on multiple channels ........ |
|
Edited on Tue Aug-05-08 12:34 AM by GreenTea
but they'll probably only have only one progressive channel....Sirius is a lot more right-wing republican than XM is so don't expect much in the form of liberal radio if Sirius is making the decisions....unless people demand a couple of progressive channels from Sirius, not just one!
I do hope Lynn Samuels goes though!!
