Air America is NOT the only progressive network. A company known as Dial Global actually syndicates some of the the nation's most widely carried progressive shows--including Ed Schultz and Stephanie Miller (both heard on WWRL) and Thom Hartmann (formerly heard on WWRL).
And Clear Channel is syndicating an afternoon drive show with Randi Rhodes, who during her last books with Air America, when it was carried on WLIB, managed to top Sean Hannity in the core talk demo of 25-54 men.
This format performs better than some think it does. And the success stories have not always been well-promoted--even by the syndicators.
