Air America at High Noon.
Okay, the much-hyped liberal radio network kicks off today with Al Franken at noon Eastern. There's a story in the NYTimes about it, but I'm scratching my head here.
Why is there no mention of Randi Rhodes in the article? You'd think that there would be some mention of the one true radio person in the lineup. Why would the Times neglect to even drop her name?

I've been listening to WLIB for hours and I like what I'm hearing.
My hopes were raised when they opened with Neil Young's "Keep On Rockin in the Free World." I had forgotten how great that song was.

At least the AP dropped a mention:

I thought O'Franken was fantastic. Many people in my building listened on the internet this morning. Only have a few complaints. Sound was odd. I had difficulty retaining a connection, as did others in my building. Hopefully that means they were overwhelmed with people who wanted to listen. I was glad to finally hear an interview with Michael Moore that lasted longer than 3 minutes. And...I'm listening to The Majority Report with Dave Chappelle right now...ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS!!! Not one, but two of my faves---Janeane and Dave. Love his show and loved the show on Air America tonight.
