tin foil hat time: Clear Channel/Fox News "infiltrating" Air America?
Just a little bitty conspiracy theory I've thought up (and I'm not prone to such things):

Clear Channel is adding Air America programming across the country...
Clear Channel has signed a deal making FOX radio news their primary news source... meaning FOX news could be on Air America stations...

hmmm....

(no, I'm not saying AA is in on it)

1. Clear Channel first worships at the altar of money
second at the altar of conservatism. If they see that there is a market for liberal radio, as is becoming evident, they will work to get a piece of that market. It also mutes some of the charges that they are just an extension of the Republican Party.

4. Imagining the contrast!
Yeah, putting AAR even close to Fox sounds like an acid and a base mixing potential there.

Let me get my tinfoil beanie out and twirl the propeller a few times, first.

5. ... dogs and cats sleeping together ...
Not a bad idea really. Let's mix it up. Maybe somebody that tunes in for Faux News will stick around and listen to the real news on Air America. But can they handle the real news?
