The Second-To-Last Guy James show is on the air NOW.

Guy has only been able to raise $1000 of the $12,000 needed to stay on the air in spite of the 70,000 people, many DUers, who listen to his stream weekly.

Obviously people who listen each week don't want to part $1 each to keep the show on the air.

Sad, really.

Says nothing good about us.

2. A network is interested, but not for several more months.

If he can hold out to last of the year, he will likely be syndicated.

But if he is no longer a going concern at that time, it won't happen.

AAR has studiously avoided Guy James. The only reason they have Mike Malloy is that we bludgeoned them with petition after petition for months to get them to pick him up.

4. I hope so too.

White Rose just sent a $100 royalty payment for the privilege of archiving his shows, and you know we are in our own fundraising crisis at present. Its all I can do. If 1000 DUers would each send $10 Guy's show would be saved.

6. please I implore anyone who can spare a dollar or two to

send it into this show. We need every liberal radio voice we can get. If only a quarter of the people who visit DU in a day would put in a contribution to his show we can save it.
