AP: Air America Radio Files Chapter 11
Air America Radio, a liberal talk and news radio network, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, a network official told the AP.
The network had denied rumors just a month ago that it would file for bankruptcy, but on Friday Air America said negotiations with a creditor from the company’s early days had broken down.
The network will stay on the air while it resolves issues with its creditors, spokeswoman Jaime Horn told the Associated Press. A formal announcement was expected to be made later Friday.

Liabilities: $20.2 million
‘Al Franken, Inc.’ is owed $360,749.98
As LEFTY talk radio slinks into the ash bin of history.
Yet, Jeaneane Garofolo must be suffering from DENIAL:
“…Air America was the fastest growing talk radio station in history, 18-35 demo. Sam [Seder] and my show consistently beat out long-standing, right-wing, regressive radio. The problem was we got conned in the beginning by some shysters. It was difficult to recover from that. Then we were plagued by “who’s going to run this thing and do it for no pay?” We’ve never gotten back on our feet from those financial debacles. The myth is that liberal talk radio doesn’t work or can’t work. That’s crap.”
Right…….
Jeaneane – listen up! No one wants to pay money to sponsor the HATE and BS you and Franken and Rhodes are spewing.
Stay tuned…….
