How do we "support" Air America?

Randi Rhodes said there was an online way to support Air America but she wasn't allowed to tell us how.

1. I Don't Know What She Was Talking About!

Maybe I'll email her show and ask.

15. Air America should list its sponsors

on their web site.

That way, we could easily refer to them and remember to write and patronize them.

5. I advertise it On My Car in window chalk

I tell everyone I know about it .

I Think one thing I haven't done is write letters of
support to the sponsers .Perhaps that's a good idea .

6. Well we could all stop complaining about the commercials, the hosts

the guests
etc...

That would help I'm sure...

7. They gather stats on how many people are listening

on the web at any given time. Maybe they are using these stats to sell ads and to pick up other radio stations.

9. Sign up as a registered user?

That's what I did -- there's a place for that now on their front page.

That way, they can at least show that they have so many registered users coming to their website.

Also, I stream their radio show during the day, even if I have it muted on the computer because of me taking phone calls at work, etc. At least it shows one more active streamer of the show.

10. Purchase Sirius Radio

And let sirius know you purchased for Air America. That will support the radio station.

BTW, Sirius will be carrying all of Air America (I think XM carries only a part).

13. Yeah, I heard about the dispute.

If what Air America's representatives say is true, they have an air-tight case. Hopefully they'll get an emergency reprieve tomorrow in court.

14. Maybe it's to listen online and to leave it on 24/7

Edited on Wed Apr-14-04 07:04 PM by eleny

I called Sirius to learn about the service. I told the guy that I would get it after April 19th because the only reason I want it is to be able to listen to Air America. If they don't get A/A, then I wouldn't need their service. I'd like to be able to get the boombox adapter to listen anywhere in the house and the car adapter for when we travel.

16. definitely register

they are not going to abuse the info. They just need something to show what kind of people listen to them and which method they use and so on.
