Citadel Broadcasting Bankruptcy: Imus Radio Syndicator Files For Bankruptcy Protection

Citadel Broadcasting Bankruptcy: Imus Radio Syndicator Files For Bankruptcy Protection

Commented Dec 20, 2009 at 18:53:09 in Media

“As is Citigroup, Bank of America, GM, and many other major companies who were once thought of as stable and blue chippers. If you haven't taken notice we are currently experiencing one of the greatest financial disasters in American history. You can't seriously compare what is happening to Citadel with what is happening to Sirius/XM. There are different factors contributing to their bankruptcy. Citadel isn't get bailed out by a large media firm (i.e., Liberty Media) as Sirius/XM did for a reason. Sirius/XM's problems are tied with the American car market, Citadels is based on content (rather terrible content I might add). Sirius/XM is considered a going concern, and is currently part of talks ongoing between Liberty and Worldspace which could create an international satellite radio provider.

“He says he feels the public option is done. What he is likely supporting is something along the lines of the coop's or some weaker less effective option. He is simply covering his tutkus. He is saying something akin to not supporting carbon emmissions caps while supporting government somehow will introduce legislature that will reduce greenhouse emissions. Same old Bill.”

“Exactly. And some of the other talk shows are down by double digits. And Oprah's still #1 after nearly a quarter century on the air, yet they single out her as the one on the decline? And on top of that they blame the president! This article is just an absurd attempt to bash to bash two of the most successful African Americans ever in a single story. Whoever wrote this should be fired & why on Earth is the HP promoting it. If I wanted righting propaganda I'd go to the Drudge Report.”

“My phrasing is awkward, I should have said beauty is determined by whatever societal standards are in that current time period, whatever present cultural and societal inclinations we have towards defining beauty. Whatever is the contemporary standard for beauty, i.e., the standard of beauty is significantly different than what it was in the 1600's, or for that matter regionally. I hope that's more coherent.”

“Hate is an irrelevant concept generated by chemical reactions in your brain in the insular region usually provoked by a stimulus that one is taught to perceive as negative. It is coupled with a inward feeling of heat and a rise in one's heart rate. Really a live body and dead body are the same, they contain the same number of particles. Finally beauty, a contemporary concept, is easily manipulated by the corruption of one's perceived reality. She appears attractive merely because you have been instructed to believe so.”

Ethics Questions Linger Over Paulson's Calls To Goldman During Financial Crisis

Ethics Questions Linger Over Paulson's Calls To Goldman During Financial Crisis

Commented Aug 10, 2009 at 12:28:13 in Business

“I think your reply is out of context, you should have asked whether it is legal. Questioning why an ex head of Goldman bailed out Goldman but not Lehman Bros. certainly brings the question of ethics into discussion. Additionally, the TARP administration was essentially engineered through recorded conference calls between the Treas. Sec. and the major Wall Street players. I have a recording of a conference call where Paulson discusses some of the nuances of the bailout including how to mitigate the publics reaction, listen here:

Believe what you want, but the strings are there and there should be a profuse investigation.”

TheLastWallStreeter replied on Aug 11, 2009 at 00:10:36

“Goldman was never the issue - they never needed the TARP money and they paid it back as quickly as they were allowed to. Letting Lehman fail was a not for Goldman's benefit - it did nothing for them because as expected Barclays bought up their people and opened another investment bank on Wall Street days after they died - no net change in the competitive landscape. Problem with saving Lehman is he couldn't find a buyer (he wanted BofA to buy them but was happy they went for Merrill instead which would have been a much bigger collapse).

Paulson was heavily involved with lining up several sovereign wealth funds to put big capital infusions into Lehman in August. Fuld refused them saying the valuation was too low.”

“Yeah but you gotta think that car salesmen/women are quivering in their willies. This actually sounds like a good idea, but it would impact the necessity for having car salesmen/women. Why deal with them when you can haggle directly online through ebay? I know they are an oft maligned group but even they have to feed their kids too.”

“People don't need car salesmen. The last 3 cars I've bought I did so after my own research. For the most part, these guys are glorified order takers. The only function they really serve is hard selling you into a car.”
