2. They've been advertising for a while... it's funny to hear them bash Wal-
-Mart and then they go to a Sam's Club commercial.

5. I didn't know that
I stream AAR here at work all day except for switching to Thom Hartman often, I don't recall ever hearing a Sam's Club ad before.

3. If they keep the show running
then oh well. AAR listeners are smart enough to know better than to shop there, right?

I cringe every time I hear the Wal Mart Foundation promo on NPR.

6. I have no problem taking their money
If they want to spend their money supporting AAR, that's great. I think the on-air personalities are strong enough not to allow the sponsor to censor them.
