Who needs radio?
Limbaugh Or Hannity could have a vast market with internet radio.
Start a website to broadcast their work for a small monthly fee and still have some ads.
Anyone who wants to listen where ever they are could just get on the internet and or cell phone web connection.
Have a worldwide market. Will not need a radio broadcast network.
I think Rush already has internet broadcast.
Internet user could open two windows. Listen to Rush on one and surf the net with the other.

First, I strongly believe that there's a lot more to it than just "distribution costs." Of course, I don't know a whole lot about the broadcasting world but, I do have enough recent evidence that this was brewing. Now, I'm never happy to see anyone have money taken out of their pockets, and in in this case ratings, but we usually bring misfortune to ourselves based on decisions made.

Everyone is entitled to opinion and preference but, both these cats take pride in cutting anyone not like them from a drug store down to a pill. They are both two-faced and heavily agenda motivated ala Hannity vs. Zimmerman vs.Rush. Down right hate (D) but they let GZ tea bag 'em every other day. Hannity tries way too hard...he wants to be the epitome of perfect yet, unknowingly, reveals his true self.

Rush...is just Rush. He really doesn't care about anything but ratings and says what he really thinks people wanna hear. Truth be known, I have made many references to his show to people at all our accounts and hardly anyone even listens. I was even asked why "I" listened to that BS. I told them I was listening, recording, comparing, and learning how he programs his listeners. Oh, no, I don't hate either of these guys...at all. Hate is the easy way out.

I use them...every word of what they've said in the past to contradict what they promote now. When people call in to contest what they've said and have true numbers/facts to rival them, they drop the caller and talk bad about them.   
Just a matter of time. Take your best shot...trust me, I can handle it.

Rush is number 2 on the Internet behind Michael Savage.

Broadcast giant? I don't think so. Both of those guys are on over 500 stations across the country and they have near 40 million listeners a week, cumulus is like 40 or 50 stations, big whoop.. Compared to howie sterned these guys have a millions upon millions more well educated listeners.

@Mr. loser They don't program anyone. If you believe that, then that is your opinion. The truth is rushbo and hannitize have very well educated listeners, check it out here:
