Americas Watchdog is demanding the the Securities & Exchange Commission & every State's Attorney General start investigating "auction rate preferred shares" & the fact that citizens in every US state were sold these extremely risky investments by a bank or stock broker as, "same as cash". Now tens of thousands of US citizens are being told by a bank or stock broker, "we don't know when you will get your money back". Why is this the biggest single case of fraud in US history? Its because the investors did not want risk, they wanted safety, and instead of that they were given an exotic risky investment device by greedy Wall Street investment houses & US banks. Why does this story deserve to be on NBC, CBS, ABC, & CNN? Its because this is by far the largest case of outright fraud in US history. (PRWeb Apr 8, 2008)

The radio industry experienced a fourth consecutive year of disappointing revenue performance in 2007, achieving a 2.3 percent decrease in radio station revenues, according to the estimates of BIA Financial Network, a leading financial and strategic advisory firm serving the media and communications industries. BIAfn's first edition of the quarterly Investing In Radio(R) Market Report shows that the year closed with $17.9 billion in income, slightly lower than the $18.1 billion consecutively recorded in 2006, 2005, and 2004. BIAfn predicts radio revenues will be down as much as 3.1 percent in 2008, due in large part to the economy, but will begin its rebound in 2009 as the radio marketplace improves and the industry starts to see increased income from digital opportunities online and through the airwaves.
