In reply to the discussion: BREAKING: Rush Limbaugh dropped from major Philadelphia radio station [View all]KharmaTrain
(31,706 posts)16. And Things Could Get Even Worse For Rushbo...
Nonetheless, the move is likely to gain attention because Mr. Limbaughs show has been under scrutiny lately. On Monday, a new competitor, The Mike Huckabee Show, started broadcasting nationally in Mr. Limbaughs noon-to-3 p.m. time slot
The Hucklenutz show is being produced by Cumulus Radio...who own several of rushbo's biggest stations, including WABC in New York and WLS in Chicago.
There's also been a big hit on hate talk radio overall as advertisers are avoiding rushbo stations altogether...and this starting to take a toll. The timing couldn't be worse as it occured during the lean first quarter when advertising revenues are their lowest and they're not bouncing back.
