Somehow, missed this. Hope this becomes a 'roll'. . .
I have always wondered what that "20 million listeners" that is attributed to Rush really means, and a week or so ago, Rush mentioned that "at this particular time ( 2:00 ) we have about 3 million people who are hearing this broadcast...."
I would guess other hosts have figures in proportion to that- if they claim "5 million listeners" the actual number tuning in for a particular show is about a sixth of that.
