You ARE a typical soccer mom. You know NOTHING about the radio industry, and its mind-numbing contractual complexities. You also have no comprehension of the business side of industry (this is the behind-the-scenes part you DON'T hear)

Instead,like a typical soccer mom, your blind emotion (which gets worse certain times of the month) and personal dislike for someone trump all logic. "I know what I know, I know I'm right, and that's FINAL!"

It's so bad, you have no idea that you contradicted yourself in posts #12 and #22. In post #12, you claim Rush is insecure of Medved, Hannity, and the rest. Where did you get this inside information? Or, like most rabidly emotional women in an argument, do you just "know" this?

In post #22. you say the opposite: "It is understandable that a host wouldn't want to promote potential "competition." So either you called someone insecure, and you support Rush's "insecurity", or you confused yourself somewhere along your insane rants.

I'll say it one more time, there is NO need for someone to continue filling in for someone else after getting a nationally syndicated program of their own. Fill-in slots are opportunities for up and coming hosts to show their stuff. Right now, Walter Williams doesn't want it, so Roger Hedgecock is the guy. If Roger gets a big radio deal, someone else will take his place, and the whole process starts over again. What don't you understand about this?

It's not about anyone's insecurity. Except perhaps your own.You can have the last word, because I know you wouldn't have it any other way.

You are the one using emotion and jumping to conclusions -- not me. I stated a FACT. Medved WANTED to continue filling in for Rush and Rush didn't want him to. There were NO contractual limitations. You are the one who is guessing. Furthermore, there is no contradiction in stating that Limbaugh is insecure and that that is understandable. I don't have to "support" his insecurity to understand it. You, once again, JUMPED to conclusions. No one would want to promote the competition, so it is LOGICAL that he would be insecure about having a competitor host his show. "I'll say it one more time, there is NO need for someone to continue filling in for someone else after getting a nationally syndicated program of their own.....What don't you understand about this?" Whether or not you think there is a need, is IRRELEVANT to the whole point of the discussion. You are coming up with all the reasons why a national host wouldn't want to fill in for Rush -- prep time, contracts etc. I'm telling you the FACTS. And the fact is he DID want to fill in for Rush, even after he had a national show. I find it amusing that you would accuse me of being "rabidly emtional" and making "insane rants", when all I did was say Medved used to fill in for Rush and that Rush dropped him when he went national. You, illogically, assume I have a "personal dislike" for Rush. You got into hysterics defending Rush over a thread that isn't even about him. Take a chill pill. Take off the tinfoil hat and relax. Sheesh!
