You are full of shit. Not a single sentence you typed is remotely true. Frist, Rush's friends don't "call" Rush, because he can't talk on the phone. Second, Rush was already at over 300 stations when Ailes proposed the TV show. Ailes has never had a thing to do with Rush's radio empire. The ONLY person responsible for Rush's success is Rush.
Give it a rest. You are clueless.
And Rush is going to pass into retirement soon. He’s grown tiresome and he’s not growing. His missteps this election cycle have set in motion the coming of his final days.
He’ll be replaced by younger more dynamic fresh blood who will be more in tune with the new electorate.
Be sure to tell him now! He’ll deny it but silently he knows it’s coming. His days are numbered. But the good news is he will be replaced with younger smarter talent.
