Geez, after all the money they made on Rush? This is how you treat people? FU Chicago, and your grandstanding station.

Time for WLS to bring back Ron Riley, John Records Landecker, Larry Lujack, the others, dust off the Anita Kerr Singers jingle packages and do a time warp.

Course, there could be a small problem with that...

If I lived in Chicagoland, I’d stop listening to this station and find another which I’d advise Rush to do likewise.

Rush has millions of devoted listeners like me and I buy from his advertisers to show my support. I even bought Snapple which I didn’t really care for, but I bought it anyway. When they dropped Rush I dropped Snapple.

Advertisers make a big mistake when they steer clear of Rush’s show because they’re afraid they’ll alienate the homosexuals or the greenies or the child molesters.

Wise up advertisers! Rush is the real deal!

More Cumulus/Democrat nonsense against Rush. There are other stations who would love to have him.

They will soon learn about “declining ratings”.

That is why God invented i-Heart Radio! Not a Problem. Check into Cincinnati’s 55KRC or Columbus’ 610WTVN and enjoy Rush daily.

Cities around the Country will be carrying RUSH if Chicago Stations don’t want you to listen to them anymore!

Rush has become a bit tedious the last couple of years.

Three hours devoted to the inflation pressure of footballs? Please!

Railing about events we already know about? Any fool can do that.

Personally, I listen to get ideas about what I can do to push back, but that sort of thing has been thin lately.

I’m finding it easier and easier to turn-off the radio between Noon and 3:00 PM to get other things done.

Watch whatever station Clear Channel owns in the Chicago area to pick him up.......

Here in Detroit Hannity was on WJR for two hours till he switched to Clear Channel maybe 2 years ago. Savage was picked up to fill the two hour time slot and bragged how he became the #1 show here in S.E. Michigan.

What he conveniently left out was the fact that the Patriot network, which owns both an AM and FM station in this area, picked up Hannity for a full 3 hour slot.....LOL!

If they’re losing revenues it’s due to an inadequate AD department, not lack of Rush listeners.......

Don’t worry about der Rushmeister. He’ll find a station very happy to pick him up.

Everything Rush says could be condensed into a one hour, maybe an hour and a half, program.
No need to over analyze or repeat basically the same information each hour.
Which almost all, if not all, radio talk shows do.
Most conservatives keep up with the current events so were already on the same page.
I always liked it when Rush, or really any host, comes at whats happening from a different angle than i thought of.
I just think they could do it in half the time?

The commercials throughout are getting to me, too, especially since he started doing the books. Aside from the normal commercial breaks, he’ll do several live minutes on Lifelock or something else, then he’ll take a call from some little girl and let her shill his books for five to ten minutes, before rewarding her with a signed copy and audio version. It’s a little much.

Rush has been a bore for years.

Rush has been very acute in analyzing the Marxism of the Illegal-Alien-in-Chief, but ZERO COURAGE. When the Illegal Alien came out with the crudely forged “birth certificate,”
Rush (and Sean and Mark) took the safe route.

Proof that having $500 million doesn’t buy courage.

Rush doesn’t do funny bits anymore, no parodies, no funny songs (to speak of), etc. Rush has tens of millions of former listeners.

Their conservatve line up since the passing of Don Wade and Roma on their am line up has drastically changed to Pablum Phouie. Out in the hinterlands one use to be able to tune to AM 890 and its 50K nighttime signal strength came in 5X5. Now its weak snd only buildsup after 9pm well after sundown and fades around 4am so badly that you can hear crosstalk from some station . I noticed the same thing on WJR am 760 both Cummulus owned stations.

The ongoing, sustained, Leftist war on his advertisers is taking its toll. That 60 Minutes hit piece on Lumber Liquidators did not occur in a vacuum.

This maybe not about El-Rusho so much as it is a millennial sea change in listening an communication habits.

Gone are portable AM/FM radios from back when Rush got started to now all media on your phone. He is competing with Spotify Radio, Kick, Snapchat, Facebook, Tweets and he hasn't figured out how to reach 20 somethings, the age I found him as I needed AM radio for traffic reports and My Sharona for the millionth time on FM had me begging for a traffic report....
