Air America in Seattle is playing college sports instead of Franken's finale

[upi402]

Sad- Air America on AM1090 in Seattle playing college sports instead of Al Franken's final show. Here's a bit of their email;

"It's A Catch 22!
Today, after 3 great years on the air, Al Franken will sign on for the last time. Today, we also find ourselves in a catch 22 as we will be broadcasting the Cougs / Husky game at the same time as Al's final show. We understand that this is going to be extremely frustrating to many of our dedicated listeners. Rest assured that this frustration doesn't fall on deaf ears. We ask that you please join us for Al's final show by Listening Live Online."

They air college sports A LOT! And they air yet another gardening show on weekend when I look for Bobby Kennedy and Mike Papantonio, or Laura Flanders. We are starved for truth and they feed us pap.
I wonder, is this happening in other markets? Are they _trying_ to commit radio suicide?
