Liberal talk radio trends ahead of Limbaugh
OxyBoy might just fall off the wagon if this spreads nationwide...which it will.
I think talk radio listeners, once they hear a show from the other viewpoint, they get hooked. They may not agree but just the stark difference overwhelms and stimulates them. They can only listen to so much Republican cheer leading before being bored to death.

Liberal talk radio trends ahead of Limbaugh among 25-54 in Miami

RAW STORY

Advance trend numbers for spring radio ratings in the Miami market, leaked to RAW STORY, reveal that liberal talk posted hefty gains against the once-indomitable Rush Limbaugh.

In particular, The Ed Schultz show actually passed Limbaugh among the 25-54 age range in the nation's twelfth largest radio market. Schultz scored a 3.4 rating to Limbaugh's 3.2, climbing 1.1 ratings points from the winter figures.

“In his own backyard, how can Limbaugh lose to a liberal talker? What am I doing with a 3.4 and he’s sitting with a 3.2?” Schultz asked RAW STORY in a telephone interview this morning. “We come a long way from being the poor little guy from North Dakota.”

1. What will Rush's excuse be now?
Obviously, it's not his fault. That's one of the good things about being a RW Republican. Nothing is ever your fault.
