Air America Radio Now LIVE In L.A.

KBLA (1580 AM) is now running Air America programming live beginning today.

On a totally unrelated note, I fell asleep last night listening to the O'Franken Factor replay and woke up at 3am with an obvious technical problem coming out of my radio. It was a loop, running over and over and over of someone saying...

"It might have been Howard Dean, It might have been Dennis Kucin..."
"It might have been Howard Dean, It might have been Dennis Kucin..."
"It might have been Howard Dean, It might have been Dennis Kucin..."

After about five minutes of this (mostly to see if anyone was awake at the switch - they weren't), I shut it off. I don't know if this was an Air America glitch or one caused by KBLA, but I do know this...this network/station is experiencing technical difficulties that have never been seen or heard by the radio business...EVER.

So add that to their otherwise stellar pioneering spirit.

UPDATE: So I was a little wrong. KBLA is carrying Franken live to go against Rush. They've shifted "Unfiltered" to noon (effectively making it a SIX-hour old show instead of three) and Randi Rhodes is still 3-hour delayed at 3pm.
