It was advertising that killed Beck as well.

Fwiw.

Clear Channel wouldn't ax Limbaugh if he cut babies in half and ate their livers live on the air. They would lose 50 million a year to keep him on, it's not about profit with them, it's about politics.

Anyway, they make a TON of money off Limbaugh that has nothing to do with advertisers.

Found numerous stories about 9 advertisers pulling out, found numerous lists of "top advertisers" (which included the 9 in most cases).

Found none that state 9 of 15. So my previous statement is unfounded in verifiable fact at this time....I'll look around a bit later, but gonna go play video games now. MY bad.

Rush just got about an extra million liberal listeners today to see what he was going to respond.

It's awesome that even if true, that wouldn't matter at all. Radio ratings are not measured like TV, moron.

What does it say about Rush's show that AOL ads appeal to his audience?

I'm more surprised that anyone would find anything that Rush has to say to be shocking any more. He's been doing the same schtick for about 20 years now. It's not like he just suddenly became a dumbass overnight.

EDIT: Kamdar is probably just recruiting new listeners.



I was in my car @ 11:20am cst going to Dicks Sporting Goods. I had it on AM from the morning show in Austin I listen to. He was in full /meltdown.
