Originally broadcast as a segment of the HBO series America Undercover on March 31, 2005. |
| Résumé |
This America Undercover documentary charts the long-anticipated rise, scandalous near-fall, and subsequent salvation of Air America Radio, a liberal radio network geared towards those whose opinions skew a bit more to the left of the dial. In early 2004, a group of investors set out to launch a liberal radio network that would challenge the dominance of America's airwaves by conservative talk radio. The creative, financial, and logistical challenges were immense, but on March 31, Air America Radio became a reality. This film chronicles the trials and tribulations involved in starting up - and sustaining - a nationwide radio network during a highly charged election year. |
