Imus Moment? More like wishful thinking.

Rush has plenty of headroom in his business model to lose ad revenue and still be “sustainable”, a concept the left loves to scold us about. No doubt he also has capital to draw on to cover any cash flow deficit for a long time.

But to bring up Imus is a hoot, almost silly, because these same people have very short memories. Imus’ sin had a half-life of about 3 months, and now he is back. The same will happen to Rush, although the left will keep fanning the fires and the half-life on the slut kerfuffle will be a little longer.

There is a market-clearing rate for Rush that even today would fill every one of the slots in his show clock that are his to sell.

On the subject of Imus, I hated it when he groveled to Sharpton in 2007 about the “nappy headed ho’s” remark and got crucified anyway.

Imus should have called Sharpton a no-good murdering race pimp and dared him to do something about it. The eventual outcome wouldn’t have been any worse and he might have developed a cult following.
