Rhodes Out At Air America
2008-04-10
According to John Scott, PD of Clear Channel talk KKGN/San Francisco, suspended talker Randi Rhodes and Air America network have parted company as of Wednesday (April 9). In a posting on the station Web site Scott says that on Monday (April 14), "it will be our pleasure to announce the return of Randi Rhodes to the Green 960 family."

Rhodes was suspended indefinitely last week by Air America following remarks she made at an appearance for KKGN where she called both Hillary Clinton and Geraldine Ferraro "f---cking bitches."

An official announcement is expected from Air America about Rhodes' departure on Thursday (April 10).

#12  Pappy, not all of them have the excuse of drugs, drink, or stoopid, Some are willfully Amerikkka-hating-assholes. Rhodes fits under all of the above, IMHO. That said, based on her AAR pic, and given a ball-gag available, I'd hit it....

yep, I'm a pig

#11  well it does employ the "challenged"

If you define being under the influence of 14 bloody-marys as being "challenged"...

#8   It is telling that the AAR fan in Mike's post above thinks of his subscription costs as "charitable contributions".

#7  I would prefer to direct my charitable contributions elsewhere.

Its charitable money goes to a loser company? How funny is that?

#5  You should see the comments on AAR's website. Red-on-red fratricide city!

For example:

This is an entirely predictable consequence of the arbitrary decision to suspend her for off-air comments made to a red-meat crowd in a stand-up routine.

The entire world knows that Mark Green carries Hillary's water and they are pillars of the cozy NY Democratic establishment along with Ferraro, et. al. And just like Hillary, Mark Green is also a once "inevitable" but ultimately failed candidate to a high profile public office. I wonder if Green and Clinton supported Randi for the years that she supported the Clinton's against the fusilade of the right. May they enjoy their dubious legacies together.

Randi is the only thing that I listened to on a regular basis on AAR. I pay a premium to download the podcasts. So now the best talent has been gutted from the station AND the podcasts don't even work anymore since their recent website update. I would prefer to direct my charitable contributions elsewhere. I will be asking for a prorated refund of my recently renewed premium. I am very, very disappointed with the mismanagement of AAR. They have let us all down.

#4  I hope someday(tm) that when 'what's it's name' goes tango uniform, some enterprising crop duster cops the copyright to the name. He/she could advertise that AA is still in business spreading the fine and deep manurer through over the air.
