EcoTalk - new Air America Radio show on Sundays?
I just saw this on the "Air America" website:

http://www.airamericaradio.com/ecotalk.htm

ecotalk
sound soutions for a healthier planet
Sundays 7-8:00AM (EST)
Bringing the environment out of the closet one sound byte at a time, veteran broadcast journalist Betsy Rosenberg interviews authors, activists, and business leaders for whom "green does not just mean money." EcoTalk offers sound solutions for a healthier planet because environmental protection is "not just for liberals"!


Anyone heard it? Will this Sunday be the debut?

1. too nonpolitical- cancel eco show!
Edited on Wed Aug-11-04 12:48 AM by oscar111
we dont see Rush adding in segements about nonpolitical topics.

a shame AA has forgotten what we need it for..

a counterweight to the landslide of RW poison on the radio. Every hour of AA needs to be used to nullify the lies of RW hate radio.

We cannot afford the luxury of branching off into 'soft' liberal concerns, that are not very political. Eco is Deserving, yes, but not top priority.

We have one channel, they have four in my area. We sure cannot afford to get off of pure politics for a single hour.

Long chats about whale confusion after sonar, is not what we need right now. Chat about the homeless, about job outsourcing, etc is more urgent. Most will vote based on the top issues, not lower issues like ecology.

2. Agree 100%.. We need a show about LABOR
There are MANY shows about the "elite moneyed" class and their investment strategies.

We need a show that tells about how non-union people get screwed..and even union people get screwed..

Save the "hoity-toity" stuff for AFTER the election..or send it to NPR

I want GUY JAMES ..:)
