Lib talk radio flops again: Air America goes bankrupt
Last gasp.
Beltway Christmas: Cash for corruptocrats
My column looks at the year in Washington political bribery. And what a year it was for the Beltway’s reverse Santa Clauses, who are suspended simultaneously in mental states of denial and indignation. Democrat Sen. Mary “Louisiana Purchase” Landrieu defended her payoff while declaring that she “can’t be bought.”Democrat Sen. Tom “Iowa Bounty” Harkin dismissed [...]
$6 billion payoff: Barney Frank gives in to Congressional Black Caucus shakedown crew
Cue up “Do the Hustle.” Looks like the extortionists of the Congressional Black Caucus got their way.
Last week, I noted the CBC’s efforts to squeeze bailout money from the Democrats’ financial “reform” package for minority-owned businesses — specifically, the failing radio/media empire of former Malcolm X lawyer and Air America/Jesse Jackson/Al Sharpton/Charlie Rangel crony Percy [...]
Congressional Black Caucus pushes bailout for Air America/Sharpton/Jackson crony
Percy Sutton and Malcolm X, 1963.
Well, well, well.
The Congressional Black Caucus is trying to shake down the White House — and taxpayers — by holding a Democrat financial regulation “reform” bill hostage until Team Obama stuffs it with taxpayer goodies for a minority-owned radio station and other minority-owned businesses.
The story is here and here. [...]
Obama’s FCC, liberal churches, and the “media justice” mob
My syndicated column today (reprinted below) probes the FCC/left-wing church alliance to silence conservative critics of illegal immigration through “hate speech” regulation. Tip of the iceberg.
Jeffrey Lord at the American Spectator first broke the story of how United Church of Christ officials met with kindred spirit/FCC Commissioner Michael Copps earlier this month before launching a [...]
Montel Williams has a murder wish for Rep. Michele Bachmann
Montel Williams is now a moonbat talk show host for Air America.
The formerly civil TV personality is now a foaming-at-the-mouth nutroots-panderer who wishes GOP Rep. Michele Bachmann dead.
Radio Equalizer Brian Maloney reports:
WILLIAMS (1:30:32): Michelle, slit your wrist.
Go ahead… or, do us all a better thing [sic].
Move that knife up about two feet.
Start right at the [...]
Who says conservative bloggers don’t do reporting?
Scroll for updates and links to the lame and lamer liberal responses to this post…
Before we fully launch into the action-packed first week of 2009, I want to provide you with a year-end wrap-up of original blog reporting on this site and across the conservative blogosphere. Why? Well, over the weekend, a few bloggers on [...]
The bottomless UAW money pit
Two weeks ago, I told you about the UAW’s gold-plated golf course. Now, the rest of the story. As required by federal law, unions must file yearly disclosure documents with the Labor Department. I looked up the LM-2 form for the UAW’s 2007 annual report (No. 000-149). My syndicated column today shares some choice morsels [...]
The missing SNL bailout skit — and the Soros connection; Update: SNL does a do-over
Scroll down for updates…still no response from NBC/SNL…the vid clip is currently up on YouTube…watch below before it goes down…10/7 5:20pm Eastern…SNL is editing the skit…
Over the weekend, I watched a hilarious, dead-on, and surprisingly honest skit on Saturday Night Live about the craptastic bailout and its Democrat roots. The skit called out Fannie/Freddie and [...]

Fairness Doctrine Watch: Pence on the House floor…amendment accepted…Rep. Obey derides talk radio and “yap-yap TV;” “Let right-wing talk radio go on just as it is now. Rush and Sean are just about as important in the scheme of things as Paris Hilton.” Update: Amendment passes!
House GOP members push for broadcaster fairness. Rep. Kirk: The Fairness Doctrine is “so 20th century.” Tom Price: “Let’s keep the Fairness Doctrine off our airwaves and in the history books where it belongs.” Amendment appears to pass by voice vote…recorded vote put off…
Fairness Doctrine Watch: The Dem campaign continues Update: Rep. Pence leads challenge to beat back threat…bill added
The Democrat campaign to stifle conservative dissent in the name of “fairness” continues.
Fairness Doctrine Watch: A “progressive” attack on talk radio
The Center for American Progress, a left-wing think tank seeded with Soros money and possessing a vested interest in a government talk radio grab, attacks conservative talk radio and renews the push for resurrecting the Fairness Doctrine. All in the name of the “diversity.” Meanwhile, the Left is mum about overwhelmingly Democrat campaign contributions from MSM journalists.
Getting the Air America story wrong…again
It’s up to Brian Maloney, once again, to get to the bottom of the story:
Since Air America Radio’s bankruptcy bailout by wealthy Manhattan real estate mogul Stephen L Green was announced on February 7 (and finalized yesterday), the public has been led to believe the network’s assets had fetched $4.25 million.
But the news media, led [...]
“Next sucker, please”
Brian Maloney looks at the fool taking over Air America–and Al Franken officially jumps ship.
KSFO: not helping matters one bit
KSFO, San Francisco’s conservative talk-radio station, is being hounded by left-wing bloggers. Now, most of what KSFO does is just your regular conservative talk radio, with Dr. Laura and Rush Limbaugh. A lot of my friends in earshot of their station consider it an island of sanity, and most of their shows are [...]
Learning all the wrong lessons from Duke case will leave us all seriously ‘Nifonged’
It’s official. “Nifong” is now a verb. The journey from mere person to Internet verb is hardly ever a proud one (see to Frisch, to Latham, to Dowdify, to Fisk), and Durham D.A. Mike Nifong’s trip has been a doozy.
But he’s not the only one who has something to answer for in the Duke lacrosse [...]
Air America: Old, old news
The New York Times and Newsweek finally try to catch up with my friend and investigative blogger Brian Maloney.
They fail miserably. Don’t bother reading their “exclusives.”
Go straight to the source for the real scoops.
Still trying to bail out Air America
Brian Maloney has a new exclusive on the latest attempt to prop up the flailing liberal radio network and names the new set of fools ready to pour their money down a black hole.
Another sign of the times?
Brian Maloney reports Al Franken has been cancelled in San Francisco and may be on his way out at failing, flailing Air America.
