Want Mike Malloy back on the airwaves? Do something about it!

[Cascadian]

As you probably know, I was the one who started the peition to get Mike Malloy on Air America (It was called Central Air Media when I started!), well I did submit the petition to the front office but I have not heard anything back from them. I want to thank all of you for signing up. Now I think here's where the campaign goes to the second phase. If you want Malloy back on the airwaves on Air America, then let us flood them with emails, phone calls, and letters...

Here is the information....

[e-mail]



Air America Radio
3 Park Avenue
New York, NY 10016

I don't have the phone number but if anybody has it please post it up on this thread.

Let's get Malloy back truth seekers. Also, if you want to view the petition and even sign it (you still can!), here is the petition URL...

2. Who the *F**k is Eric Johnson?

#3441 posted Mike is a Hasbeen.....Why even sign the petion if you don't support the mission? What an asshole!!!!!!


By a quick review of some signatures, there are quite a few assholes there! That must be "a sign" that Mike is definately a winner for our AA night time voice of reason. He has the attention of all types of listeners! This is a good thing, I just never expected it to show on a basic petion.

4. He really likes Mike Malloy

He just doesn't want to admit it. People like this who sign the petition and say they hate Malloy really like him. That is why they are dumb enough to put their names to the petition. If they really hate him, they would not even bother.

9. People who listened to AAR this week and previously to Mike Malloy

I think, really understand now, how entertaining, funny, passionate and well read Mike Malloy is and was, while doing his great three hour broadcasts on week nights...nobody I've heard this week (or I've ever heard for that matter) can hold a candle to Malloy on the air.

Mike has scruple's and integrity to go along with being a true professional...because he believes with all his being, that these right-wing republicans are really just ultra fascist in disguise and that their greedy, lying, selfish, racist, homophobic, religion pushing, corporations above people ideology has destroyed our democracy...

And passionately express' it on the air.

So Malloy doesn't sell his soul or tone down his (absolutely correct) political philosophy and ideology, simply for the bucks...now people want to jump all over him...say he was only on in small markets or just on the Internet, etc...

I would say to ANYONE...just listen to one hour of any of Mike's shows and you'll remember Mike Malloy, as the compete professional at the top of his game. (and very well produced shows as well). Here's a link to a couple of month's of Malloy's shows. Go for it, listen to any show (You can fast foward past the ads).

Here's a background piece on him:
http://www.salon.com/ent/feature/2003/05/13/malloy/index.html

Where's the liberal Rush Limbaugh?

...

For nearly 20 years, Mike Malloy has been making talk radio like this: caustic, abrasive, inventive, confrontational and resolutely left of center. It has won him admirers and awards, and it has cost him jobs. At a time when the very genre of talk radio is widely seen as synonymous with strident conservatism, his career both ratifies and belies that premise.

...

By late 1986, Malloy was hosting his own late-night show on 50,000-watt WSB. His chief issues included the Reagan administration's involvement in Central America, especially the arms-for-hostages deal, and the creation of a Palestinian state alongside Israel, and he performed strongly enough to be moved into a midday slot. It placed him in direct competition with Limbaugh, however, at the very time Georgia congressman Newt Gingrich was successfully leading the Republican Party into control of both houses of Congress for the first time in a half century. "I was swamped," Malloy admitted. In 1995, WSB replaced Malloy with Dr. Laura Schlessinger, herself part of the conservative phalanx in talk radio.

Taking over a 10 p.m.-1 a.m. show on WLS in Chicago in 1997, Malloy raised listenership by a double-digit margin and regularly put his station in Chicago's top five for the overnight slot. In addition to being named to the Heavy Hundred in 1999 and 2000, he won the Achievement in Radio award for the best overnight show in the Chicago market. He championed the causes of several death row inmates who were ultimately exonerated or pardoned.

Most of all, in a deeply polarized time in national politics, Malloy whetted his satiric blade. The more that conservatives (and their favorite talk-show hosts) accused President Clinton of both real and imagined high crimes and misdemeanors, the more Malloy ridiculed what he routinely called the "flying-monkey right." Or as he once put it, "I'm picking on Republicans tonight. And every night."
