Air America Radio Comedy Format Successful

Air America Radio brands itself as progressive, provocative, with satire and comedy.  Ever since Mark Green closed the deal, buying the bankrupt network for an unbelievable garage sale price of 4.25 mil,  the format is more and more going the satire and comedy route.  Green is hoping this will boost the ratings and bring in at least one new affiliate per month.

A couple of examples of the change for more and better comedy.  Al Franken is gone.  The  ex stand-up comedian calling himself Lionel is gut busting hilarious and Rachel Maddow has that, read between the lines there's a joke somewhere, content.

Even the blogs are a comedic read.  Rambling but funny.

AAR is considering adopting a new catch phrase or moniker that would rival such established ones has Fair and Balanced or We Report You Make The Decision.  So far the suggestion boxes used on The Blue Collar Comedy Tour have not aroused any interest with the Green family although AAR has shown some interest in Larry The Cable Guy.

This is a bold move but most feel if they go back to talk radio it could result in another Chapter 11.
