Remember, Limbaugh was a total failure on television. Even back when he was funny, his spiel played to a radio audience, and not television.
And he’s even losing the former, now. (I haven’t listened to him in a long while, so I can’t speculate or address the possible reasons.)
In Houston, Rush's show didn't come on until 11:30 pm.. and, it STILL had more viewers than anything else that came on after the late news.
The main reason his show went down the tubes was the network allowed the local stations to place it in the time slot they wanted.
Since most TV stations are liberal they placed his show at the worst hours. Around here I could only see him after midnight.
Also, the local station that carried him moved the times around without notice so I could not record it or create a schedule where I could watch.
It was all done on purpose and Rush addressed this issue not only when he canceled his TV show but for a few years after when enough people would ask him to again get on TV.
Well it was a little hard to watch when the stations put him on a 2:00 in the afternoon or 3:00 in the morning.
You don't know what you're talking about. His "failure" was liberal spite and nastiness in action. As others have said the show was deliberately aired in the wee hours of the morning and I couldn't even tape it because the schedule changed unannounced from day to day. Liberals in the media made sure Rush "failed."
