Rush had a show years ago. I don’t think he has any interest in being on TV and the radio...why would he? Leave the grueling schedule to a younger man, who seems up to the challenge.
And as much as I love Rush, I don’t think he’d do a better job at “educating” than Beck does on his TV show.
If there’s an experiment that needs to be done...give Beck a decent time slot and see what happens. The big advertisers can “afford” to boycott his show because it’s on at a weird time (although it does pull more viewers than Hannity or Greta.) But if Beck was in primetime, I believe, they’d “have” to advertise on his show because his numbers would be huge...just my 2 cents.
Rush explained on his radio show one day that television doesn’t allow the spontaneity that radio does. Makes sense.
You’re right.
I don’t think anyone is doing as good a job as Beck in “educating” his audience.
Sure, he’s silly and dramatic, but there’s meat in every program. He is shining light where no one else will and tackling difficult issues. There’s no one else doing what he’s doing.
