1 out of every 150 people listen to rush...big deal..
he has what? ten million listeners a week? divided by 5 days a week means only 2 million people actually listen to him.
300 million people in the u s divided by 2 million listeners tells me one out of 150 people listen to rush every day.

he is not so powerful after all.

you there lard ass?

proud to be one of the 149.

15. Actually (and I hate to defend Rush's ratings)
But he has 10 million listeners per week, not 2 million. That 10 million people are only counted once. They may have tuned in a few minutes or listened all 5 days to each show, but it is a total of 10 million people tuning in each week.

However, with that said, that is still only 3.3% of the total population. Not exactly a majority of people.

7. yeah, and every other one of those who listens is a network anchor

11. My husband listens every day and hates him.
My husband has listened since he has been on the air for an hour a day while he is on lunch break. I listen just enough to know exactly what talking points he is giving his sheep. We both HATE him and think the people who repeat his crap are idiots. It is so much fun as soon as they say something to say, "Ok rush" they hate the fact that we know where they got their bull crap. We have won so many arguments being prepared for the vile lies that come out of their mouths that they got from that idiot. I have had people come over to the light just pointing out his mistakes and distortions. Many of the people who find him are people who are in their cars all day for work. Most of the people I know that believe in him have never voted before, have no idea what either side stands for and are just completely clueless about politics. I feel guilty sometime for giving him ratings but I feel it is more important to know the enemy.

13. I some times put him on. I like to time it to see when he is wrong.
It is usually wrong or half the facts. He is very good at that. My problem is my radio in the car usually has him on about every station on AM.Some reason Air Am. stopped coming in. I recall years ago going to a eating place and they had a Rush Room. I finally had to ask what it was and it was for all those people who got together for this man. I could hardly believe it. I was sure they were pulling my leg. And they do it is a public place.
