Shot In The Dark: Good News for Fraters

September 26, 2004

Congrats to the Northern Alliance's pals at "New Patriot", who (sez Chuck Olsen), got a mention on Janeane Garofalo's unlistenable homage to college radio, "Majority Report".

However, there's some muted bad news for Air America here.

Look at New Patriot's SiteMeter page. You can see their hits on September 24, the night they got their big mention. 220-odd-visits. Not bad.

Now, check out their traffic on September 13. their second-biggest day with 280-odd visits.

Who was talking about New Patriot on 9/13? That's right - the Fraters.

Remember that, regional bloggers - Fraters Libertas has 17% more oomph than Air America!

Good ol' Mitch, always finds the silver lining!

Yeah, they also gave the wrong address for New Patriot on Majority Report. But you have a better point here without mentioning that, so I understand.

Well, the NewPat guys *did* mention it, so I figured the normal, moderately sentient reader could pick up on it.

But by all means, let's snatch ire from the jaws of mirth.
