Tracy Klestadt told the court that the privately held company was in discussions with seven different parties about a sale and was "very hopeful" of reaching a deal by Nov. 22, saying there was a "significant amount of interest."
The network, which went on the air with much fanfare two years ago, filed for bankruptcy protection Oct. 13 after discussions with one of its creditors reached an impasse.
Klestadt declined to say who the potential suitors for the company were, and a spokeswoman for Air America also declined to comment.
