I'm sure Rush does know what's going on. That's really not the point, however. The point is that many times his listeners DON'T know what's going on and look to him for information.

Rush gets stuff out there that would never be widely disseminated if not for him. He is the main way for principled conservatism to reach the masses. They get it from Rush and FoxNews. Not from FR since this is a narrow cast. But lots of our original FR material does reach Rush Limbaugh and Fox, then onward to wider dispersal.
