Weeks after the financial scam came to light where Air America ended up with nearly $1 million from a primarily government-funded charity for underprivileged kids, the left-wing radio network’s signature host Al Franken finally addressed the issue on his radio show:
Al Franken says 20,000 poor kids and old people weren’t the only victims of an exec who allegedly arranged a Bronx charity’s mega-buck “loan” to Air America.
“About three weeks into the life of Air America, I became an involuntary investor — I stopped being paid,” Franken told listeners yesterday [...]
Screw the kids, Al’s not getting paid!
Thank you, Al, for reminding us who the real victims are here.
Meanwhile, Captain’s Quarters has assembled a convenient scoreboard comparing coverage over the last month of Martha Stewart’s legal-financial woes and those of Air America:
| Media Outlet | Air America |
Martha Stewart |
| New York Times | 0 | 16 |
| Washington Post | 0 | 10 |
| Los Angeles Times | 0 | 3 |
| CBS News | 0 | 1 |
| ABC News | 0 | 4 |
| Total: | 0 | 34 |
Although these numbers were compiled on Sunday, to my knowledge, none of these outlets have covered the case in the last two days.
