6. "Liberals won't show FARENHYPE 911 in theaters."
Damn you Sumner Redstone, you Bush-voting, money-grubbing piece of liberal scum!

It's a reserved domain for now.

4. It's revenue, I guess.
And it's not like they'll sell a lot of copies with the AAR audience.

:evilgrin:

7. If they pay for the airtime, they get it

I read here a while back that they can't deny advertising to winger movies if they accept any advertising for movies.

I think that applies for all radio. I think the producers of outfoxed shoud buy time during Hannity's show as payback.

9. That's why they're a COMMERCIAL station.
Air America would likely get all kinds of grief if they refused to sell ads to the right wingers. So they sell it to them. No biggie.

10. hehe -- just think how much those ads are playing in Limbaugh-land

12. Oy oy oy...
Isn't FahrenHYPE being distributed solely through Overstock.com? Was it an Overstock commercial? They're going to some very curious lengths to promote that farce of a movie.

14. If rightwing idiots want to support AAR,
I've certainly got no problem with it. Overstock.com seems to be doing all it can to label itself as a right-wing corporation.

16. Shell Oil regularly runs ads on AAR, too...
hardly a progressive organization, but a good source of revenue.
