== Radio ==
* Air America Radio was created as the left-wing alternative to conservative talk radio, and managed to pick up such hosts as [[Jerry Springer]] and former ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' stars [[Janeane Garofalo]] and Al Franken (a future senator). It sputtered on for several years on corporate life support (Even [[Neal Boortz]], noted for his opposing views, donated money!) before it shut down.
== Sports ==
* The Soviet Union formed the [[wikipedia:Spartakiad|Spartakiads]] from 1928 to 1937 as they initially branded the Olympics as "bourgeois". The event was put on the backburner when World War II broke out; after the war, they finally relented and sent a team at the Helsinki Olympics in 1952. They still continued to hold Spartakiads within the Soviet Union up until 1991.
