The more the merrier, I hope I hear of layoffs at Air America
also, a 100% layoff for both would be good.

NO!  That would be a mandate for the lefties to reinstate the 'Fairness Doctrine".  They are gonna try anyway, but if Err Amerika and NPR fail it will be a no holds barred effort.

You are correct, as usual, Haz.

Layoffs in the broadcast media are nothing new.  Clear Channel laid off hundreds earlier this week.

btw, good to see you back, Haz.  ;D
