Air America is back on the air in Chicago and LA. Reuters reports:

A New York judge ordered the owner of two radio stations on Thursday to put the 2-week-old, liberal radio network known as Air America back on the air.

Judge Marilyn Diamond issued a temporary restraining order on the condition that Air America post a $156,000 bond. The judge will hold a hearing on the dispute on Monday.

"We won the first round. We'll be back on the air sometime before the end of the day on Friday," Air America Chairman Evan Cohen said.

Liu did not return calls seeking comment.

"Arthur Liu received a clear message in court," Cohen said. "Temper tantrums are not the way to conduct business."

Score one for the good guys!
