Just wish this would have happened years ago. It’s not like Rush just started being a sexist douche. It’s how he made his name. I mean this is a man who popularized the term Feminazi. Because a woman seeking equality is the same thing as one of the worst groups of mass murderers in history. I am glad it’s happened. Don’t get me wrong but I just wish advertisers had realized before that Limbaugh’s a piece of shit who says stuff like calling Fluke a slut all the time. It wasn’t a rare instance- it was Rush doing what Rush does all the time.

This denial from Premiere/Clear Channel is even more instructive:

Premiere hotly disputed the report, saying in a statement that it was “completely inaccurate,” and adding, “A number of the top spenders in the medium use talk radio to promote their brands and sell product, and many of them use The Rush Limbaugh Show and The Sean Hannity Show as the driving force of their marketing efforts.”

They’re lying their asses off, because they put themselves on the hook to pay Rush $400 million over eight years, so, of course, they’re gonna say that we have always been at war with Eastasia. At this point, I’ll trust Cumulus on this more than I would Premiere/CC, even though Cumulus can be as sleazy and lowdown as CC; the reason for this is that while Premiere/CC produces and syndicates Rush (making him a very highly-paid employee of theirs), Cumulus is just buying the program from CC to put on their stations in markets where CC doesn’t have a talk station that competes with Cumulus.

If Cumulus is taking a huge hit on ad revenue with only 40 or so stations that run Rush, CC must be completely fucked up, seeing as they have about 8-10 times the number of corporate-owned stations running the show that make up the bulk of the EIB Network.

They’re lying their asses off, because they put themselves on the hook to pay Rush $400 milion over ten years, so, of course, they’re gonna said that everything’s just peachy.

They’re not on the hook to pay him $400 million over ten years…they are on the hook to pay him $400 million over EIGHT years!

I stand corrected…should’ve put a IIRC in there.

Hannity too. Good. Two piles of dung and finally someone in the boardrooms smells it.

Didn’t mean to come off as pedantic…just pointing out how ridiculous that contract REALLY is.

If you care about radio, it should frighten you that the people who put together that deal for Rush are running pretty much the entire industry at this point.
