fat lushbo: Don't blame me

[blastoff]

What Joe B the liar (WLS PSAs, self-promos) doesn't get about radio in general and Rush's large audience in particular is that any station in any market not airing Rush's show would kill to have him in their lineup.

In Chicago, for example, if Rush left WLS for WIND or any other station, his audience would follow him. It happens all the time in markets across the country. Syndicated radio hosts switch stations quite often for a variety of reasons. That's the broadcast industry.

All 40 Cumulus stations (6% of approx 600 stations) could drop Rush when their contracts expire if they wanted to, but the ad revenue from the replacements would be miniscule by comparison and they know it better than anyone else.

Pogo did a great job eviserating your point, but to recap- Rush isn't getting ad revenues.

No one wants THEIR products associated with him at this point save the Goldbugs and other scams.

So, yeah, maybe WIND would be desperate enough to pick him up. Because honestly, who is listening to Michael Medved trying to talk sense into his rabid listeners? Or creepier than shit Hugh Hewitt...

Well of course he isn't. You told us that a long time ago when you made up the fiction that WLS was only running PSAs and self-promos, which was then and remains today a lie.

I listen to Rush on local radio and, thanks to you, occasionally listen to the WLS feed on line as well as on other stations around the country. Gee, the ad breaks all come at the same time and they're all chock full of paying advertisers.

So you lefty idiots keep it up. Just make stuff up about Rush or anyone else on the right because the rest of the low info bozos will buy it. Other than that I'd just advise all of you to be careful. Wouldn't want to hear any of you drowned during one of your group circle jerks.

Ummmm.... that's not the way it works. The feed you get wherever you are is not the same during the breaks as what's on the air in Chicago -- where Joe lives. So you don't know what's actually on the air there, unless you're picking up 890AM in that area on a radio.

I don't live in Chicago but I've also heard about that wasteland of PSAs there. WABC was doing the same thing back around Fluke Flap, though I don't know about now.

Also the way the show is set up, some of the ads are national buys that go out on all stations, and the station is left with "local" spots to sell for itself -- which is how it makes its money, and is what Cumulus is complaining about; they can't sell those local spots. And that's where the PSAs and Promos are. See my linked article yesterday from Mediate about how nobody wants to be associated with Limblob.

Hope this helps.
Probably won't. None so blind.

Even the people at WABC aren't stupid enough to believe that their ratings will go up if they don't keep Rush there.

High ratings usually mean high ad rates. But if you can't sell the ads because you can't find advertisers willing to have their name associated with the program, ratings don't mean squatso. Because that Limblob show is an expense, and it's not getting paid for.

When you are in a fight with the CEO of your biggest distributor and playing the "you can't fire me, I quit" game, you are a problem.

Sorry, that's just the way it is.

Rush is poison because no one wants this misogynistic, closeted homosexual drug addict hypocrite associated with THEIR products.

Thus, he's done.

Only a matter of time, now.

Leave it to the left to dig up Rush when the Hussein administration is on the ropes. So predictable.

There is no "Hussein administration". Hussein was executed in 2006. Maybe some day you'll get newspapers out there and find out about the world.

Dead or alive he's got zero to do with this thread.

Maybe you need to get some historic perspective if it's even possible for the ignorant left these days. Lefties just giggled themselves to death over Tricky Dick Nixon's middle name. In fact they even made a cheap propaganda movie entitled "Milhous". Isn't it just as legitimate to use Obama's middle name even though "moderate" (chicken shit) republicans like John McCain thought it was offensive. The current Hussein administration has everything to do with the original post.

Your notoriously abject ignorance is apparently bottomless. Nobody named "Hussein", whether first, middle or last, has anything to do with WABC, Cumulus Media or Lush Rimjob.

See a psychiatrist. Tonight.

Will lefties ever quit whining? The president is also known by his middle name, Hussein. Isn't it time you thin skinned libs learned how to take it instead of dishing it out?

Look, you brainless bag of ostrich farts, you started this mindless tangent about "the left" and "Hussein" back in post 46. None of it has anything whatsoever to do with the topic.
Now either comment on the topic or just shut the fuck up. Troll.

The CON$ervoFascist Brotherhood can always rationalize a reason for their hate.

Attacks on conservative talk radio happen when ever Hussein gets into trouble. It's like clock work. It's all camouflage and pretty hateful stuff coming from a political side that accused Rush's "incendiary speech" of causing the Gifford shooting.

Look you brainless paragon of ignorance-- a simple report by a megacorporation broadcaster that the bloviator they already carry on their own stations is costing them money, is in no way an "attack on conservative talk radio". Cumulus already sells its own conservative talk radio -- which is likely Limblob's near-future replacement. Now why would they be attacking conservative talk radio-- while they already sell and broadcast, all together now... conservative talk radio??

Fucking DUH.

This is simple business. And it STILL continues to have nothing to do with anyone named "Hussein".


And for the edification of your paranoid hacksterism, it wasn't Limblob that got accused of inspiring the Giffords shooting; it was Sarah Palin and her target map, one of which was on Giffords' office. Apparently I know your paranoid hacksterism better than you do. Loser.

You are all tangled up in your own hateful rhetoric and childish name calling (ostrich farts?). You and luddy nutty are attacking conservative radio. The radio stations are in it for the money. Whenever Hussein gets in trouble you can count on a few nut case diatribes about some obscure part of the radio business that the radical left suddenly finds extremely important.

Radio is my business, you dumb shit asshole. And no I still haven't forgotten our first encounter when you jumped into a thread on euthanasia implying I wished my own friend dead, so cut the "hateful rhetoric" song and dance, you fucking world class hypocrite sack of diarrhea.

Yes it is about business. Cumulus and Limblob. This is about money. Not the "radical left", not fucking "Hussein", not black helicopters, not "luddy nutty", not any other bizarre paranoid nutcase scenarios dimbulbs like you spend all your time bending over for.

Now get the fuck out of the thread if you can't handle the topic.
