The article begins by saying:
Al Franken, Randi Rhodes and Sam Seeder — articulate liberal pundits — don't sell well, even in Santa Cruz.
I don’t know about Sam Seeder, but to call Al Franken (pictured) and Randi Rhodes articulate is like saying the world is flat. Their ranting and raving on-air delivery is anything but articulate.
Liberal talk radio should sell well in such a liberal community as Santa Cruz but obviously it didn’t.
KSCO is actually a conservative radio station that decided to give liberal Air America a chance, hoping that enough advertising could be sold to make it pay. Well, it didn’t.
The station owner said: “We didn't sell a single ad in a year and a half…I thought liberal radio would work as a viable advertising business in the most liberal town in America. I was wrong"
Air America has been replaced with music from the 1950s, '60s and '70s in Santa Cruz. So much for liberal radio in a liberal town.
Hmm…a year and a half without a single paying advertisement…wonder if that will appear in Franken’s next book?
