I cannot stand Rush Limball but in his defense the FACTS are that radio listenership is down across the board. Not just him but all the stations have lost listeners with the advent of in car satellite radio and the ever growing MP3 players.
His show is as profitable as ever, his ratings remain solid (duh!), and he's not going anywhere, much to the chagrin of Pelosi, Reid, Obama, and all the rest of those social-engineers.

Ya' know....you left wing baboons love to blabber on about things and hardly EVER offer anything to back what you say.
Figure this out for yourself einstein....IF radio stations were losing money on Limbaugh....or Hannity...or any of the other conservative shows....THEY WOULDN'T BE ON THE AIR!!! Here's a newsflash....businesses aren't in business to LOSE MONEY. In fact...if they LOSE MONEY, they change their practice...or CANCEL A SHOW. But...since that hasn't happened, I'd say that is PROOF that you are full of....'hot air'.
Go peddle your left wing propaganda somewhere else...maybe over at the Nickelodeon board...I hear the kids over there will believe anything.
I don't think radio stations and listeners are tiring of Right Wing talk shows. I know that in Atlanta, we have 3 or 4 stations that air Right Wing stuff and NONE for Left Wing.
I know I tire of it... not that I am a liberal or a conservative.. I just prefer to get the WHOLE story and not just half of it! You can get that from Sat Radio... keep things balanced. If I listen to one side or the other for too long without getting a counter view point I start to march to that drum beat.. very scary. It really and truly is a form of brain washing...
Well, I don't think that there are reliable statistics on radio listenership. In relation to my own experiences at work, more coworkers listen to AM radio now than years prior. Music cannot be as engaging as an interesting conversation on radio while one is at work, but it's possible that new generations of Americans will find music more engaging than human conversations or dialogs.
All one has to do is spend 30 seconds searching the web:
Isn't it amazing the absolute BS progressive liberals like the OP believe in?
