AAR is making money and growing.
Fox Business ,in the tank.,low to no ratings.
Both still alive but can both be called successful?
Have no clue about Fox Business, as it did not seem relevant to Franken.

PITW,a sports team`s scoring,elections,quarterly reports,stocks and productivity,a census,a budget, all share one thing.A need to tally and account on a day(s)certain so that there`s some sort of metrics to measure with.One can say forever"we`ll see".
But there are benchmarks for performance and AAR has met them.
Not going to say "we'll see" forever. Will wait to see how well they continue to do coming out of bankruptcy. So what are the benchmarks for a syndicated show? Would it be total market share, or advertising dollars gained? What about the P & L? Seems the Income Statement and Balance Sheet would be how I would look at a companies measure of success.
quote:
If AAR went off the air,there would be something to crow about.But it`s growing and gaining audience shares.
So what is their total market share?
quote:
There are thousands of listed companies who don`t perform as well as AAR,but aren`t politicized or attacked or looked at unfairly.They`re looked at like any other bus. and judged without a bias(mostly) to be good performing stocks.Maybe not stellar,but above inflation and growing.That`s the key word for investors,~growing~.
Uhhhh. You were the one that mentioned it, so I looked into it. The reason was I remember reading something about them in a business magazine, as well as reading something about the funny dealings with accepting loans from a charity.
quote:
You`re correct.We`ll see.But AAR`s critics have bad-mouthed them from the start ,fairly and un-fairly.They aren`t telling the truth now,either.
Who is not telling the truth? Seems AAR was the one that filed for bankruptcy, AAR was the one that said they had 30 mil in starting capital when they actually only had 6 mil, AAR was the one that took loans from a charity that was established to help kids and the elderly. These are all facts, not opinions. You can verify them from multiple sources from the wiki article I linked to.
quote:
Al`s Senate win would cement AAR`s success,at least spiritually and morally.
So morally what is your opinion of AAR getting no interest loans from a charity? Morally what is your opinion of making the company as if they had 30 mil to start with, when actually they had 6 mil? Morally what is your opinion of a company that does not have adequate Workers Comp insurance? Would you apply the same morals if it were a republican?
quote:
We need a progressive anti big business voice in the Senate.There`s way to many corporate brown-nosers there.
Not sure about a liberal being needed (sorry the rebranding is not taking a hold with me), but you are correct there are many corporate and special interest brown nosers in government. Those brown nosers are both republican and democratic. Not sure who has more, but all of them need to be ousted. If Franken does that then great, but please do not make him out to be a savior when he has some not so shiny armor himself.
quote:
Sen. Paul Wellstone was a hero of Al`s and a Senator Franken would be very much like him and fight for the middle class,like Wellstone did.
Go Al!
So do you feel Franken will offer compromise across the aisle to get things done, or just try and bullying things through?
