Rush Limbaugh is cooked: The stunning fall of the right’s angriest bloviator

[Pogo]

I don't know about the others, but his syndicator BOUGHT WOR in NYC, moved him and Hannity to that venue, and they are still #1 in NYC! And this place is just FULL of left wing fools, as you know!

BULLSHIT!

Clear Channel already owned the station since 2012 and the station is currently #3 in the NYC News/Talk radio market. Unlike when your MessiahRushie was on WABC, Porky now has to play second fiddle to Mets baseball games.

Now EdtheLiar, LIE to me that Rush ISN'T #1 in his NOON time slot against Curtis and Kube!

How many games do the Mets play between noon and 3 on week days?

One, on a bad week 2!.... Then we listen on IHeart!

Yes ..... Master..... we ..... listen......... and..... obey......

According to Nielsen, WOR as of the lastest book available (June) is #21 in its market. Not quiiiiiiiiite "number one".

Gotta wonder who makes the bubbles some people live in.

And who is #1 in the Noon time slot?

It's not broken down into dayparts in my linked source..

Once again that's my linked source. Just in case you missed it.

 

[Pogo]

Like Boston, Chicago is full of leftist assholes, absolutely NO LOSS! LOLOLOL!

losing WLS will be a major blow to Rush, just like losing WABC in NYC and WABC in LA.

You mean KABC? They don't do Ws west of the Mississippi.

OCDGirl, no need to put up your picture and scare little children!

So you can't find anything about Rush NOT being #1 in NYC.... why did I already know this?....LOLOL!

I know, I know - we've heard it before, but there's no denying the plain truth and the evidence. Sane people, I mean.

I predict he will quit his show in the next year when his contract expires. He will never get big money again, and his ego won't allow him to take any less.


Rush Limbaugh is cooked: The stunning fall of the right’s angriest bloviator
Indianapolis' WIBC is just the latest station to drop him like a bad habit. His days of relevance are numbered

The bad news just keeps coming for conservative talker Rush Limbaugh.

Which bulletin was worse, though? The news in April that he was being dropped by WIBC in Indianapolis, a booming talk powerhouse that played home to Limbaugh’s radio show for more than two decades, or the news this week that the talker’s new address on the Indianapolis dial is going to be WNDE, a ratings doormat AM sports station that has so few listeners it trails the commercial-free classical music outlet in town?

The humbling, red-state tumble is just the latest setback for the conservative talker who has seen his once-golden career suffer a steady series of losses recently.

Divorced from successful, longtime affiliates in places like New York, Los Angeles, Boston, and Indianapolis, Limbaugh’s professional trajectory is heading downward. That’s confirmed by the second and third-tier stations he now calls home in those important media markets, and the fact that when his show became available, general managers up and down the dial passed on it. Apparently turned off by the show’s hefty price tag, sagging ratings, and disappearing advertisers, Limbaugh continues to be a very hard sell.

It’s a precipitous fall from the glory days when the host posted huge ratings numbers, had affiliates clamoring to join his network, and dictated Republican politics. All of that seems increasingly distant now. With his comically inflated, $50 million-a-year syndication deal set to expire next year, Limbaugh’s future seems uncertain. “Who would even want someone whose audience is aging and is considered toxic to many advertisers,” askedRadioInsight last month.

For Limbaugh, the troubles were marked by key events from 2012 and 2013. The first came in the form of Limbaugh’s Sandra Fluke implosion, where he castigated and insulted for days the graduate student who testified before Congress about health care and access to contraception, calling her a “slut” and suggesting she post videos of herself having sex on the Internet. The astonishing monologues sparked an unprecedented advertiser exodus.

The following year, as the host struggled to hang on to fleeing sponsors, radio industry giant Cumulus Media decided to negotiate its Limbaugh contract in public, making it clear through the press that the company was willing to cut ties with the pricey host in major cities where Cumulus owned talk radio stations. In the end, Limbaugh stayed with Cumulus stations, but the company sent a clear signal to the industry: Limbaugh was no longer an untouchable and general managers weren’t clamoring to hire him. Since then, the talker’s fortunes have only faded.

Another looming problem? Conservative talk radio is a “format fewer advertisers are interested in buying because of its aging audience,” noted radio consultant and self-identified Republican Darryl Parks. Limbaugh himself recently conceded a generational disconnect: “Now that I’ve outgrown the 25-54 demographic, I’m no longer confident that the way I see the world is the way everybody else does.”

That disconnect may be fueling Limbaugh’s waning political influence. Once a mighty player whose ring was constantly kissed by Republicans, this campaign season seems to be unfolding with Limbaugh on the sidelines, his clout and his ability to drive the conversation seemingly surpassed by other conservative media players.

Limbaugh is cooked?
You mean there was a pig roast and I wasn't invited?

[Synthaholic]

Limbaugh ain't going anywhere; in fact, he's gaining listenership. Know how I know that? Didn't think so.

The pathological liar told you so.

May 26, 2015
BEGIN TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: I certainly hope everybody had a great weekend. We're back. I certainly did, I hope you did, and we're off and running, folks, with a brand-new week of broadcast excellence right here on the ever important, increasingly popular, growing-by-leaps-and-bounds Rush Limbaugh program

November 07, 2012
RUSH: Hey, any of you guys in there want to come sit in my chair today? Anybody? Nobody wants to come sit in my chair here? None of you? I mean, I'm giving you a golden opportunity to speak to, what, 50 million people.

June 3, 2015
RUSH: You're reaching 20 million of 'em here, but I imagine a number of 'em are gonna be kind of skeptical of this. I'm sure you're gonna face female that aren't gonna believe you, be skeptical, think you're just trying to get on the financial the gravy train and they're gonna look at you and they're gonna see Caucasian. What color is your hair?

You're a pathological liar, so there. Nah nah.

Yeah, it hurts you to have to eat your MessiahRushie's words!

This blunthead dude isn't really worth responding to. He's just the latest in a long line of Right-Wing USMB retards.

This is the real problem with con media. I think the average age for Faux News viewers is 65+. Kathy Griffin's mother's age group. As they aren't garnering younger viewers, same with Dimbaugh, the clock is ticking.

Which bulletin was worse, though? The news in April that he was being dropped by WIBC in Indianapolis, a booming talk powerhouse that played home to Limbaugh’s radio show for more than two decades, or the news this week that the talker’s new address on the Indianapolis dial is going to be WNDE, a ratings doormat AM sports station that has so few listeners it trails the commercial-free classical music outlet in town?

The humbling, red-state tumble is just the latest setback for the conservative talker who has seen his once-golden career suffer a steady series of losses recently.

Divorced from successful, longtime affiliates in places like New York, Los Angeles, Boston, and Indianapolis, Limbaugh’s professional trajectory is heading downward. That’s confirmed by the second and third-tier stations he now calls home in those important media markets, and the fact that when his show became available, general managers up and down the dial passed on it. Apparently turned off by the show’s hefty price tag, sagging ratings, and disappearing advertisers, Limbaugh continues to be a very hard sell.

It’s a precipitous fall from the glory days when the host posted huge ratings numbers, had affiliates clamoring to join his network, and dictated Republican politics. All of that seems increasingly distant now. With his comically inflated, $50 million-a-year syndication deal set to expire next year, Limbaugh’s future seems uncertain. “Who would even want someone whose audience is aging and is considered toxic to many advertisers,” askedRadioInsight last month.

For Limbaugh, the troubles were marked by key events from 2012 and 2013. The first came in the form of Limbaugh’s Sandra Fluke implosion, where he castigated and insulted for days the graduate student who testified before Congress about health care and access to contraception, calling her a “slut” and suggesting she post videos of herself having sex on the Internet. The astonishing monologues sparked an unprecedented advertiser exodus.

The following year, as the host struggled to hang on to fleeing sponsors, radio industry giant Cumulus Media decided to negotiate its Limbaugh contract in public, making it clear through the press that the company was willing to cut ties with the pricey host in major cities where Cumulus owned talk radio stations. In the end, Limbaugh stayed with Cumulus stations, but the company sent a clear signal to the industry: Limbaugh was no longer an untouchable and general managers weren’t clamoring to hire him. Since then, the talker’s fortunes have only faded.

Another looming problem? Conservative talk radio is a “format fewer advertisers are interested in buying because of its aging audience,” noted radio consultant and self-identified Republican Darryl Parks. Limbaugh himself recently conceded a generational disconnect: “Now that I’ve outgrown the 25-54 demographic, I’m no longer confident that the way I see the world is the way everybody else does.”

That disconnect may be fueling Limbaugh’s waning political influence. Once a mighty player whose ring was constantly kissed by Republicans, this campaign season seems to be unfolding with Limbaugh on the sidelines, his clout and his ability to drive the conversation seemingly surpassed by other conservative media players.

This is the real problem with con media. I think the average age for Faux News viewers is 65+. Kathy Griffin's mother's age group. As they aren't garnering younger viewers, same with Dimbaugh, the clock is ticking.

Bill O'Lielly pulls in an average age of 72 years old.

When he isn't sexually harassing one of the female staff members...

I know, I know - we've heard it before, but there's no denying the plain truth and the evidence. Sane people, I mean.

I predict he will quit his show in the next year when his contract expires. He will never get big money again, and his ego won't allow him to take any less.

Still after what 20 years, the left is still predicting the end of Rush.
These are generally the same people who predicted a long and successful run for Air America.

Rush does a public service. As ignorant about the world and life in general he is, he provides a good look into how the average republican has been brainwashed.
He's the greatest thing that's happened for the republican party since the gipper.

 

[IlarMeilyr]

Rush sometimes makes waves by going a bit over board.

Big fucking deal. If that happens to make the typical liberal dufus get all agitated and soil his undies, that's a small price to pay for disseminating the information he often shares.

What really kills you libs is how often he effectively exposes (and predicts far in advance) what the liberal hacks who ruin (err -- run) the government and the bureaucracy are up to.

So?
Most news networks have older people.
They young get theirs from reading the news on the web or on their smartphones.

Here's how you kick lefties in the nuts when they make false claims about the average age of O'Reilly's much larger audience than CNN or MSNBC, combined. In addition to swamping them in combined total audience size he also creams them in the same fashion in the all important - for ad revenue - 25 to 54 age demographic. In other words he's got a much bigger younger audience than the other two no matter what the average age of his viewers might actually be. Lefty nitwits file such bad news in the Inconvenient Truth folder.

 

[Dan Daly]

Have people actually been listening to Blimpbaugh since he exposed himself as a greedy, self-promoting drug addict back in the 90s?
