Reply #6: Are you sure it isn't just your local affiliate? Or just XM?

In Atlanta, Randi is still on 3-7 and Malloy is still on 10-1.

As for the Sirius/XM thing, so?

XM is giving them more money and a larger audience - both of wich AAR needs. Plus, XM's Washington, D.C. headquarters will offer dedicated studio space for special live broadcasts throughout the year for Air America Radio programs.

But interestingly, when Sirius first took on ARR, didn't they integrate AAR programming into their "Radio Left" - and shorten some AAR shows to make room for Schultz and Colmes while leaving others out? That was one reason I didn't go with Sirius.

Now XM is doing essentially the same.
