Well its about time. As far as I could tell, they don't generate any revenue and were propped up by the Left.

Nobody wanted to hear their tripe.

Good riddance.

Here's another article Newsmax - Air America Radio Closing, Filing for Bankruptcy

Why don't liberal radio shows do as well as conservative?

It's really simple: they are competing in a flooded market. If you want to know liberal opinions, you have NBC, ABC, CBS, NPR, CNN, MSNBC, Time, NewsWeek, and dozens of other readily accessible forms of media. If you want to hear non-liberal opinions, you have to tune into Fox or conservative radio. Unfortunately, you'll get about 20% true conservative info/opinions and 80% neocon info/opinions from Fox and talk radio.

Good point about the main stream media.

Liberal medais cannot compete. No one but the far leftists will listen to their hate filled crazy rants. One by one, liberalism takes a blow. This is begining to be a great year.

Did anyone catch this? Evidently, they just closed down operations today (January 21st)? I can't find info on Drudge or any of the other internet news services.

Hmm, I sure hope the "economy" doesn't force Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Mark Levin off the air too.

The FORMER Liberal Radio station... seems the liberals better get used to the word FORMER, I think they will be hearing it quite a bit in the coming months.

Proof that liberal cannot run anything without making it go bankrupt.

We all know that only 20% of Americans are liberal minded so it just proves there is not enough loons to listen to the failed freak show.

Liberals cause any business to go bankrupt.

They cannot run a KOOL AID PARTY stand without spending more then they make.

It is in their blood.
