Rush Limbaugh boosts 'Fox News Sunday'
LA Times ^ | 11/5/09 | Mark Silva

Radio's Rush Limbaugh is not only good for his own business -- with a new eight-year contract offering him the potential to make $400 million -- he's also good for Fox News.

Limbaugh's appearance on "Fox News Sunday" set a ratings record for the year so far for the network's Sunday morning counterpunch to "Meet the Press" and the rest. Limbaugh drew 3,892,000 viewers, including 1,180,000 in the coveted 25-54 age group, for the show on the Fox broadcast network and cable's Fox News Channel (2.35 million tuned in at FNC.)

"I'm a ... guy who earns a percentage of what I generate every year,'' Limbaugh told host Chris Wallace in the interview that aired Sunday. "There are some guarantees, but the $400 million is not guaranteed. I have to earn that. So far ... I could -- I'm ahead of schedule, in fact.''
