Alexandria, VA—Air America, the
liberal alternative to conservative talk radio, is moving from WLIB
(1190AM) in New York to the even smaller and weaker station WWRL
(1600AM), making it harder for the low-ratings program to be heard.
Brent Bozell, founder and president of the Media Research Center,
issued the following statement about Air America’s imminent
collapse:
“Air America’s failure is further
proof that liberalism does not sell in the marketplace,” Bozell
said. “Failure in New York City – the epicenter of intellectual
liberalism – means, to paraphrase Frank Sinatra, if you can’t make
it there you can’t make it anywhere.”
“If this had been Rush Limbaugh or Sean
Hannity, the liberal media would be salivating at a conservative’s
demise. Instead, they remain silent as Al Franken and his flagship
station sink into nothingness.”
“For whom does the bell toll? It tolls for
Air America,” he concluded.
