AirAmerica.com: The Hub For Progressive Media

http://www.airamerica.com You've heard the rumors. The time has come. Today marks the launch of Air America's new web site--the change you want to see, the place to go for the latest news and opinion on the issues that matter most to you.

We're pushing for the issues that matter most to Americans today, and we need you to help. The tide has turned. Health care, the climate bill, education, energy--America is on the brink of a new solution-oriented epoch. It's a group effort. Click around. Interact with our hosts and editors. Tell us what change means to you. Let us know what you're thinking about. Get involved as a member of the Air America community. Sound off. Act up. This is your site. Own it.

Air Americas mission remains unchanged, but now you will find the most up-to-date news, a progressive take on issues that matter to you—war policy, social equality, education, the economy, energy and the environment—alongside insightful commentary, smart bombs of political theater, and the context you need to form and inform your take on the world of politics and beyond.

And of course theres the same great programming from Air Americas on-air talent including Rachel Maddow, Ron Reagan, Jack Rice, Richard Greene and Ana Marie Cox, as well as other well-known hosts like Randi Rhodes featured on WZAA in Washington DC.

The site now features three audio streams: in addition to the live stream of Air Americas WZAA 1050 AM station in Washington, DC, you can also hear shows from the mother ship in New York City and from the Air America Classics library with Al Franken, Janeane Garofalo, Sam Seder, Marc Maron, Thom Hartmann, Rachel Maddow, and Randi Rhodes.

New OnDemand content features more than 5,000 audio and video clips and the OnDemand Plus subscription option lets you download full, commercial-free podcasts of your favorite shows.

You'll also find live streaming video of New York based programs such as Lionel and Montel Williams. Plus, now you can join interactive chats with Air Americas show hosts, editors, and producers during their shows to engage in a two-way conversation online and on-air.

To complement this round-the-clock coverage, were launching six new sections: News, Politics, Economy, Entertainment, Lifestyle, Green. Theres also a channel called Really? where some of the stranger aberrations of the news cycle can be found.

Come back to see what were up to in the weeks to come as the offering will expand. Poke around. Play with the site. It's in beta, so there will be issues. Tell us about them! Give us feedback. We hope youll make Air America your first stop in the morning.

Welcome. Join the conversation. Start something.

AA lost me when they lost Randi Rhodes, Mark Maron and Sam Sedar. I adore Rachel Maddow, but I'd rather catch her on MSNBC. I've also been to the AA website a couple of times and it seems as though they have some type of grudge against Kieth Olbermann, they even posted a story about him that, with a little fact checking, turned out to be untrue. I appreciate AA for what they have done for the progressive and liberal cause, but now they have really turned into just liberal version of Fox News.

[AirAmericaMedia]

Take a closer look at the new site. We live stream Randi at 3pm M-F and we have an Air America classics audio stream broadcasting Mark Maron, Sam Sedar, Al Franken, Janeane Garafalo 24/7.

[flockofgoat]

How is this channel any different from Fox News, aside from the fact that AA doesn't report the news, has a liberal bias and a fraction of the audience.

[AirAmericaMedia]

Check out our website. We report the news. As for the liberal bias, how about our recent post: Keith Olbermann, Garden-Variety Misogynist. Can't really see Fox News reporting on Bill O'Reilly like that, but believe what you will.

[MasterAdam100]

Montel is on here? Hell yeah! Wish I had satelitte radio. =( The Internet will have to do for now. =)

[realnarutoboy]

Oh, so Franken is a "butch lesbo"?

[joshatkins94]

you left Franken out of your rant - United States Senator

[AriesLudzik]

A former "station" of angry, shrieking butch lesbos like :

Madcow -- ahh, ya, the Constitution DOES actually have a preamble, moron !

Cox -- nice hair, loser !

Garofalo -- your tats are hopelessly outdated !

Rhodes -- if you can't stand up straight after a couple of drinks, do what Obama does(coke)

Is it any wonder they're out of business ? Haha.

Pathetic

[topper4125]

Well... They are now just as bankrupt financially as they are morally.

They will not be missed.

[topper4125]

There's a chance that if you listened to Air America more often, you would have noticed that they were nothing more than trolls with microphones.

Also.. they might still be on the air.

na na na na, na na na na, hey hey hey.... well you know the rest.

[MrProgressivelib]

na-na-na-na, na-na-na-na, hey hey hey, good-bye. I nevr listened, and apparently, no one else did.

[mike66002000]

see ya in bankruptcy air america hows the hope and change working out for you

[flockofgoat]

So they've covered how GE, Soros and the Tides Foundation are writting policy for the Obama administration? Send me the link and I'll withdraw my accusation.

[nvbaileys]

Actually, according to the New Oxford American Dictionary, it is :]

"adverb

used at the end of a list to indicate that further, similar items are included" It's not semantics, it's the english language (well technically it's Latin, but we enjoy stealing things from other languages)
