This article was written in August of 2005. In over two years, there wasn't a single question about the article's notability.
The "notability" criteria as applied here (and as I noted in my remarks below) are fairly myopic. The Northern Alliance is a new media outlet, composed of new media figures. To say its references are primarily on blogs and forums - new media, by definition - doesn't establish notability ignores the context; the program has interviewed Presidential candidates (Mitt Romney), governors, A-list pundits, and so on.
As far as point of view goes - nobody has shown any examples of point of view or conflict of interest in the piece. Any luck so far?
Finally - as I noted below, I've largely abandoned Wikipedia; trying to edit anything remotely political draws a horde of Kossacks; Wikipedia is in the process of marginalizing itself, at least when anything remotely political is at issue. So it's interesting that after two years without a single comment, the"notability" and "conflict" tags pop up within weeks after a couple of regional leftybloggers wrote a tittery article about my Wikipedia edits.

I'd say that a radio network that has only one slot on one day is a problem as far as notability... especially when the website listed on the page for the so-called network no longer works.
But, Mitch Berg and the NARN is featured this month in a Brady Bunch parody in the radio station's magazine... so it has to be notable and there aren't any conflicts of interest... right?
