Headlines have been blaring all over the digital universe about Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity being tossed off the air by Cumulus and losing 40 stations in key markets.
However, in the words of the legendary Paul Harvey, readers are not being told the rest of the story. Cumulus and Clear Channel have been buying up stations in major markets. Limbaugh and Hannity are syndicated by Premiere, which is owned by Clear Channel. Rather than pay fees to Cumulus to carry these shows it makes more sense to put them on their own properties, reduce local talent costs, and save those fees. The two top-rated talkers aren’t going anywhere. They’re just changing dial positions and, in many cases, to better signals.
This liberal doesn't care. I never listened to either one of them and it makes no difference to me whether they're on the air or not. I don't see why this "issue" has provoked so much discussion here.

Ditto I do listen occasionlly when I feel like having a good belly laugh however!

Same here. Why tune into anyone that mosy likely does not believe anything that they say anyway. These guys rely on daily talking points to pass on to their gullible listeners that eagerly await the next issue that feeds into whatever hatred or bias they are harboring that day. These shills are laughing all the way to the bank as to how easy it is to sell their brand of snake oil.
How is that racist? Sorry the truth hurts your delicate sensibilities, but that's the demographics of their audience.
