The reason Air America is failing is that Al Franken isn't a billionare.

Sorry, Will, but I believe that the only reason that Air America didn't survive is that not enough people were willing to fork over the bucks to support it. I mean, aren't there enough celebs in Hollywood who are mega millionaires who could slip some bucks toward Air America to keep it viable? Why didn't they? Is it because they knew it was a lost cause?
The reason Air America went belly up wasn't because Al Franken wasn't a billionaire, but because he couldn't get enough of his friends to get on board.
There's enough money on the left - they just didn't want to support this outlet.
