Air America Stiffs In Ratings, Stiffs Employees On Wages

Lizz Winstead, who you never heard of before and hopefully won't hear of again, is suing the "network" for over $300,000 in unpaid back wages.

As this guy points out, her salary of $250,000 per year seemed a touch high for a host on a tiny upstart radio "network."

Thanks to Viking Pundit, who suggests the filibuster deal can't be as bad as we think if the Boston Globe is having conniptions over it.

Ha, I actually HAVE heard of Winstead; she used to have something to do with The Daily Show back when Craig Kilborn was hosting.

Her salary IS too high but if Dead Air America was dumb enough to offer her that, then they should be PAYING her that. Sue, Lizz, sue like the wind!

Later,
bbeck

I think the collapse of Air America will be more entertaining than anything on the station.

She actually co-created the Daily Show, and quit in a huff after Kilby joked about her "servicing" him in a magazine interview.

How big a loser do you have to be to get fired by Air America?

Posted by: Dave in Texas on May 25, 2005 02:55 PM

Dave, how big a loser to you have to be to work there in the first place?

If she didn't sue then its probably true! SHE DID SERVICE KILBY! Which is why she left in a huff! I wonder if Liberal AIR AMERICA will note that in court?

Lizz Winstead is the creator of the Daily Show, if I remember correctly. She quit over a spat with Craig Kilborne.

Whoops. I should read all the comments next time.

I don't think Err America is going to collapse. I think it will make a slow but steady retreat until it can be heard mainly on satellite radio. Face it, there is always going to be an audience for demented left wing moonbats that you can't get on NPR or Pacifica Radio.

Franken's show is retreating from New York to here in Minneapolis. He's claiming it's so he can run against Norm Coleman for the US Senate , but I really think it's because the rent is cheaper.

The next time I see some guy sprawled on the sidewalk with a "Will work for Food" sign around his neck, I'm going to tell him, "Hey, at least you aren't trying to get $300K in back wages from Air America." Should buck him up something wonderful.

What is the UK Regime's plan for protecting the citizens from the savage criminals they've foisted on the populace? They offer NONE. They do, however, have a plan for protecting the savage criminals from the citizens: The citizens must STAY CALM and not get angry and not share videos of citizens being attacked by savage criminals.
The public keeps saying "protect us from the foreign savages you have imported against our wishes and over our objections" and the UK branch of The Regime keeps proposing plans to protect the foreign savages from the public. Soclose to what the public is demanding, just, you know, the complete opposite.
Just a thought: Maybe you wouldn't have to worry about the public attacking the savage criminals if you actually introduced a plan to protect the public from the savage criminals. Maybe they wouldn't feel as if it was necessary for them to protect the public through self-help.
