More on the Air America Minnesota Guns, Gays and Abortion Gag Rule

I interviewed Nick Coleman last week about his time with Air America, 
Minnesota. He said that Air America Minnesota was the "Walmart of AM 
Radio", referring to Air America Minnesota's rock bottom wages and the way 
they treat employees.  That's rather ironic since Unions are big sponsors 
of Air America Minnesota.

Nick Coleman told me that Joe Palen - Nick's producer - Jim Kelly on to 
promote the pride festival and Janet Roberts asked what he was doing on the 
air. Joe responded by saying that AAM was airing commercials for the 
festival and figured that they would promote it on both shows, especially 
since Wendy was doing the MC bit at Pride. Janet then, according to Nick, 
told Joe Palen that Air America Minnesota shouldn't book Jim Kelly from the 
Pride Festival on the air again.

The Twin Cities Pride Festival should not sponsor Air America Minnesota any 
more until Janet Robert is no longer the station owner.

I have contacted Janet Robert for comment.  You can
