Limbaugh also would denote alive commercials during the show for sponsors. He would also sometimes promote his own products, such as his political newsletter, The Limbaugh Letter, or his Rush Revere children's history books. Occasionally, Limbaugh featured guests such as politicians or fellow commentators.

An edited instrumental version of the Pretenders' "My City Was Gone" was Limbaugh's theme song at the showtime of his show'southward run. Briefly in 1999, Limbaugh stopped playing the vocal after a "cease and desist" society was issued by EMI. However, later the song'southward author, Chrissie Hynde, said in a radio interview she did not heed the use of the song, an understanding was reached with EMI.[3] The bear witness aired live on weekdays from noon to 3 p.one thousand. Eastern fourth dimension, with a number of stations (such as WHO in Des Moines) ambulation it on tape delay.

The bear witness was never carried on any satellite radio service,[seven] and was one of the few nationally syndicated talk radio programs not to exist featured on satellite radio. Limbaugh attributed this decision to his desire to maximize value for his terrestrial radio affiliates.[eight]

The Blitz Limbaugh Show was unusual among syndicated radio programs in that information technology was fee-based; radio stations pay iHeartMedia hundreds of thousands of dollars (the exact amount depends on marketplace size) for the rights to comport the show, in addition to giving upward fifteen minutes of daily ad fourth dimension for castling advertisements and the Morning Update.[9] The rights fees were dropped following Limbaugh's death.[x]

Show history [edit]

Radio syndication [edit]

He succeeded Morton Downey Jr. in the fourth dimension slot.[37]

Based on his work in Sacramento, Limbaugh was signed to a contract past EFM Media Management, headed by former ABC Radio executive Edward McLaughlin. Limbaugh became syndicated on August 1, 1988, through EFM and his show was drawing five one thousand thousand listeners after ii years of syndication.[38] Lacking a name for the network during the early on years, he coined the name "EIB (Excellence In Dissemination) Network," which has remained associated with the show fifty-fifty after joining an actual radio network (Premiere), and the trademark is currently owned by iHeart Media, which continues to use the name for Clay Travis and Buck Sexton.

In 1997, Jacor Communications, a publicly traded visitor, acquired EFM.[39] Later that yr, Jacor merged with Premiere Radio Networks.[twoscore] In 1999, Jacor merged with Clear Channel Communications,[41] which rebranded as iHeartMedia in 2014; Clear Channel/iHeart accept maintained what is now branded every bit Premiere Networks as their syndication wing since acquiring information technology.

In 2006, WBAL (1090 AM) in Baltimore, Maryland was the commencement station to driblet Limbaugh'due south program and replace it with local programming; the current Baltimore affiliate is crosstown rival WCBM (680 AM).

Limbaugh and Articulate Channel signed an viii-year, $400 million contract extension on July 2, 2008.[42] He signed a new contract for iv boosted years in a deal announced Baronial ii, 2016, after Limbaugh publicly contemplated retirement. Limbaugh is believed to have taken a pay cutting to remain on the air after advertisers pulled funding in response to boycotts around his criticism of Sandra Fluke and industry-wide advertising declines.[43] Limbaugh renewed his agreement with Premiere through 2024 in a deal announced January 5, 2020.[44]

Last year [edit]

On February 3, 2020, Limbaugh appear on his show that he had been diagnosed with lung cancer, but would continue hosting the show (though with absences to undergo treatment). In anticipation of his death, he used his Dec 23, 2020 episode to express his thanks and say farewell to his audition;[45] Limbaugh occasionally hosted shows through January and would host his concluding new episode on February 2, 2021. His decease was appear by his widow Kathryn during the February 17 broadcast. Upon the announcement of his expiry, Premiere Networks released a statement that during Limbaugh's terminal illness, information technology had organized the annal of Limbaugh's shows by date and topic to allow for at to the lowest degree xc days of clip shows, selected to stand for to the current news cycle as much as possible, presented by a guest host (referred to on air as a "guide host"). The long-term program would be to somewhen cancel the program one time Premiere determined that the audience was ready to motility on.[46] Stations endemic by Cox Media Group[47] and Saga Communications, forth with Pittsburgh affiliate WJAS, began dropping the program in mid-March.[48] Farther defections from Audacy,[49] Midwest Communications,[50] and Blastoff Media[51] continued in Apr, with Audacy replacing Limbaugh with Dana Loesch and local programs.[52] Cumulus Media continued to deport Limbaugh's prove through the outset 3 months in the "guide host" format, then introduced its own show hosted by Dan Bongino on May 24.[53]

On May 27, 2021, Premiere Radio Networks announced that, every bit part of a programming shuffle, it would exist moving its evening host Cadet Sexton into Limbaugh's time slot, with Play a joke on Sports Radio personality Clay Travis joining him as co-host, beginning June 21, 2021, as The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Testify,[54] subsequently announcing that Houston-based host Jesse Kelly would join its lineup to accept over for Sexton in the evening slot.[55]

The final episode of the "guide host" format (and the show entirely) aired on Friday, June 18, 2021. Of the show's remaining affiliates — estimated by Premiere to be well-nigh 400 — most of the carryovers to Sexton and Travis consist of stations owned by Premiere parent company iHeartMedia. Other station ownership groups chose options such as Bongino, Loesch, Salem Radio Network hosts Dennis Prager or Charlie Kirk, Compass Media Networks' Markley, Van Army camp and Robbins or Fox News Talk's Fox Across America. Townsquare Media, in item, declined to brand a universal determination on its stations' replacement for Limbaugh, allowing local program directors to determine for their ain stations.[56]

Sexton and Travis also inherited the EIB brand and Limbaugh's "Rush 24/seven" subscriber base - since rebranded as "EIB 24/vii" - and includes the archives to both shows. Travis and Sexton also promote their show as beingness "Inspired by Blitz", and continue to utilise clips from Limbaugh (in segments billed equally "Rush's Timeless Wisdom") to reinforce points fabricated on the new testify.[57] [58]

Controversial incidents [edit]

Military machine Radio controversy [edit]

On May 26, 2004, the article "Rush'due south Forced Conscripts" appeared on the online news and stance magazine Salon.com.[59] The article discussed the controversy surrounding the fact that American Forces Radio and Television Service (AFRTS) (which describes itself equally "[providing] stateside radio and television programming, 'a touch of dwelling', to U.S. service men and women, DoD civilians, and their families serving exterior the continental Us") carries the first hour of Limbaugh's bear witness. Melvin Russell, manager of AFRTS, defended Limbaugh'southward presence, by pointing to Limbaugh'southward high ratings in the US: "We look at the most pop shows broadcast here in the U.s. and endeavor to mirror that. [Limbaugh] is the No. 1 talk prove host in the States; in that location'southward no question almost that. Considering of that nosotros provide him on our service." In improver, AFRTS produced a election of radio and tv set shows asking troops worldwide, "Who do you want that we don't at present carry?" The Rush Limbaugh Testify was not listed on the ballot, simply won the vote as a write-in past the troops. A later poll by Lund Media Research establish that a majority of soldiers preferred that talk show programs be replaced past hip hop and rap stations, bringing into question the hereafter of content such as the Rush Limbaugh Show on AFRTS.[60]

Critics accept pointed out that other programs, such every bit the eight-million listener per calendar week Howard Stern Show, are absent from AFRTS. (This argument was made earlier Stern left for satellite radio in 2006.) Other claims—for example, that there is no political counterbalance to Limbaugh on AFRTS—have been rebutted by Byron York, a columnist for the predominantly conservative National Review: "American military men and women abroad have access, for example, to the talk show of liberal host Diane Rehm ... Jim Hightower and CBS News anchorman Dan Rather." Another possible political weigh to Limbaugh is Harry Shearer, who emphasizes his presence on AFRTS at the terminate of every episode of his satirical Le Prove.

On June 14, 2004, U.S. Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) introduced an amendment to the 2004 Defense Authorization beak that called for AFRTS to fulfill its stated goal of providing political balance in its news and public affairs programming.[61] The amendment passed unanimously in the Senate. Limbaugh responded past calling the movement "censorship". On his June 17 radio evidence, he commented that: "This is a The states senator [Tom Harkin] amending the Defence force appropriations nib with the intent being to get this programme—only ane hour of which is carried on Armed Forces Radio—stripped from that network." The amendment never became law. As of 2005, the first hour of Limbaugh's evidence is withal on AFRTS. Limbaugh visited The states forces in Afghanistan in 2005.

This treatment of The Rush Limbaugh Show proved to set a precedent for Congressional argue on AFRTS content. The Ed Schultz show, a liberal talk radio prove with over one million listeners a calendar week, was originally scheduled to be circulate on AFRTS on Oct 17, 2005. It was subsequently pulled, with some alleging political motivation, which was later on debated in Congress. A few weeks after this debate, AFRTS added Schultz to the line-up forth with other talk evidence hosts: Al Franken and Sean Hannity.

Michael J. Fox controversy [edit]

On the October 23, 2006, broadcast of his radio evidence, Limbaugh imitated on the "DittoCam" (the webcam for Web site subscribers to see him on the air) the physical symptoms actor Michael J. Fox showed in a television set commercial raising awareness of Parkinson's disease.[62] [63] He said "[Fob] is exaggerating the effects of the affliction. He's moving all around and shaking and it's purely an human activity ... This is really shameless of Michael J. Fox. Either he didn't have his medication or he'southward interim."[64] Iii days later, on Oct 26, Limbaugh denied that he was ridiculing Play a trick on, stating that, later seeing Fox without his medication, "I [was] stunned because I [had] never seen Michael J. Fox that way." Limbaugh said that he was "mov[ing] around like [Fox] does, but never once was I making fun of him. I was trying to illustrate for my audience watching on the Dittocam what I had seen."[65]

Flim-flam later appeared on CBS with Katie Couric and said he was actually dyskinesic at the time, a condition that results from overmedication.[66]

Nonetheless, Flim-flam has admitted that he has, at times, deliberately not taken his medication[67]—such as in an appearance the U.Southward. Senate—in order, he claimed, to demonstrate the furnishings of Parkinson'south disease. During Limbaugh's October 26, 2006 show he said, in a discussion with a caller, "[I]northward his own volume [Lucky Man: A Memoir],[67] he has written in chapter eight that before Senate committees he goes off the medication so that people can see the ravages of the illness."[65]

"Barack the Magic Negro" parody [edit]

On March nineteen, 2007, Limbaugh referred to a Los Angeles Times editorial by David Ehrenstein that claimed that Barack Obama was filling the part of the "magic negro", and that this explained his appeal to voters.[68] Limbaugh so later played a song by Paul Shanklin entitled "Barack the Magic Negro,"[69] sung to the tune of "Puff the Magic Dragon".[70]

Phony soldiers controversy [edit]

During the September 26, 2007, circulate of Limbaugh'southward radio show, Limbaugh used the term "phony soldiers" when speaking to a caller who had questioned if the previous caller was really a soldier.[71] [72] [73] [74] [75]

The caller, saying he was currently serving in the Regular army for xiv years, said, "They never talk to real soldiers. They like to pull these soldiers that come up out of the bluish and spout to the media." Limbaugh interrupted, "The phony soldiers." The caller continued, "The phony soldiers. If you talk to a real soldier, they are proud to serve. They want to be over in Iraq. They sympathize their sacrifice, and they're willing to sacrifice for their country."[76] Several minutes later, after the caller had hung up, Limbaugh read from the AP story describing the story of Jesse Macbeth. Macbeth joined the Ground forces but did non complete basic training, yet falsely claimed in culling media interviews that he and his unit of measurement routinely committed war crimes in Republic of iraq.[77]

On June vii, 2007, Macbeth pleaded guilty to one count of making false statements to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and was sentenced to five months in jail and iii years probation.[79] [80]

Media Matters noted Limbaugh's utilise of the term "phony soldiers" in an article on their website. The article claimed that Limbaugh was saying that all soldiers who disagree with the Iraq State of war were "phony soldiers",[81] and this assertion was repeated in speeches by 2008 Democratic presidential candidates John Edwards and Chris Dodd.[82] Limbaugh said that, when he had made the annotate almost "phony soldiers", he had been speaking just of Macbeth and others similar him who merits to be soldiers and are not, and that "Media Matters takes things out of context all the time".[83] Media Matters pointed out that Limbaugh did not mention Jesse Macbeth on his September 26 radio show until 1 minute and 50 seconds afterwards talking about "phony soldiers" with the caller."[84]

Limbaugh addressed Media Matters' accusations during an interview on Trick News, explaining that the caller, subsequently discussing the phony soldiers, went into a discussion of weapons of mass destruction.[85] Limbaugh said that he allowed the caller to continue downwards that tangent while, off-mic, he searched for the commentary on Jesse Macbeth to present to his audience, thus accounting for the delay. The unedited transcript of the radio show in question can exist found on Rush Limbaugh's website.[86]

[edit]

On Jan 16, 2009, Limbaugh read a letter on his radio show that he had received a asking from a national print outlet: ... "If yous could send us 400 words on your hope for the Obama presidency, we need information technology past Monday nighttime, that would be platonic." He responded, "I don't need 400 words, I need iv: I hope he fails." He explained that he didn't want "absorption of as much of the private sector by the US government every bit possible, from the banking business organisation, to the mortgage industry, the automobile business, to health care. I do non want the government in charge of all of these things. I don't want this to work." He continued, "What is unfair near my saying I hope liberalism fails? Liberalism is our problem. Liberalism is what's gotten us dangerously close to the precipice here."[87]

Limbaugh later said that he wants to come across Obama's policies neglect, not the man himself.[88] Speaking of Obama, Limbaugh said, "He's my president, he's a man being, and his ideas and policies are what count for me."[87]

"Leader of Republican Party" [edit]

Limbaugh was the keynote speaker at the 2009 Conservative Political Action Conference; his voice communication attracted widespread attention.[89] On March one, 2009, CBS's Face the Nation asked White House Chief Of Staff Rahm Emanuel who he idea represented the Republican Party; Emanuel named Limbaugh as his choice.[90] [91] [92]

In remarks aired past CNN on March 1, 2009, Republican Party Chairman Michael Steele said that Limbaugh is "an entertainer" and his rhetoric at the convention was "incendiary" and "ugly".[93] Steele later telephoned Limbaugh and apologized. Limbaugh stated he would not want to run the RNC in its "sad sack state".[94]

On March two, 2009, Limbaugh responded to Emanuel,[94] and on March iv, 2009, Limbaugh challenged President Barack Obama to a debate on his radio plan. Limbaugh offered to pay all of Obama's expenses including travel, nutrient, lodging, and security.[95] On March 6, Limbaugh told Byron York of the Washington Examiner that his ratings for his radio show had significantly increased since he had begun criticizing the Obama Administration.[96]

Comments regarding Sandra Fluke [edit]

On February 29, 2012, Limbaugh said that Sandra Fluke, a Georgetown University police student and women's rights activist, supposedly was a "slut" and a "prostitute" on his radio show, in response to testimony that Fluke gave to Congressional Democrats in favor of requiring contraception to be included in insurance provided by employers, including religiously affiliated organizations that object to its usage.[97] The negative response included cold-shoulder campaigns past social media groups pressuring the show'due south advertisers; as of March eight, up to forty-v advertisers had withdrawn or suspended their advertising on the evidence,[98] and 2 radio stations, KPUA in Hilo, Hawaii, and WBEC in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, announced they would no longer broadcast the show.[99]

In March 2012, social media boycott promoters claimed that an additional 96 advertisers had dropped the bear witness, only The Washington Mail service later reported that this was just a regular quarterly discover, not specific to the controversy.[100] Premiere responded to the boycott campaigns with an aggressive campaign to circumvent the traditional advertizement agencies and account executives to solicit new advertisers, not just for Limbaugh simply for its other talk properties equally well; Premiere declared success with this strategy in June 2013, at which point many of the advertisers had long since returned and those that had not had been replaced.[101] Competing networks Cumulus Media and Dial Global both blamed the controversy for advertising losses at their networks; in Cumulus's case, it was also a factor in the company's conclusion to drop Limbaugh from all of their stations (including several of Limbaugh's elevation-10 market affiliates, most of which were former ABC owned-and-operated stations) when the company's majority wagon contract with Limbaugh expired at the end of 2013.[102] [103] (Cumulus backed downwards and signed a bulk-carriage contract extension at the end of 2013; all of Limbaugh'due south Cumulus affiliates except WABC were included.) The evidence has also been dropped by other stations such as WRKO in Boston and KFI in Los Angeles resulting it in beingness carried by weaker stations in major markets.[104]

Functioning Chaos [edit]

In late February 2008, Limbaugh appear "Operation Chaos," a political call to action with the initial plan to have voters of the Republican Party temporarily cross over to vote in the Democratic primary and vote for Hillary Clinton, who at the fourth dimension was in the midst of losing eleven directly main contests to Barack Obama.[105]

At the betoken in which Limbaugh appear his gambit, Obama had seemed on the verge of clinching the Democratic nomination.[106] However, Clinton subsequently won the Ohio principal and the Texas master (while losing the Texas caucus and the overall delegate split) with large pluralities from rural counties; thus reemerging as a competitive opponent in the race.[107]

On April 29, 2008, Limbaugh alleged an "operational interruption" in Performance Chaos, maxim that Obama's defeat in the 2008 Pennsylvania master and fallout from statements from Obama ally Reverend Jeremiah Wright could have damaged his entrada to the extent superdelegates would shift to Clinton'southward side.[108] Determining Obama had weathered that tempest, Limbaugh lifted the pause the next day and renewed his call for his listeners to vote for Clinton in the upcoming Indiana and North Carolina primaries.[109] Obama won the North Carolina primary[110] but was narrowly defeated in Indiana, where Clinton won decisively in rural counties that normally vote Republican in presidential elections.[111]

The overall legality of Operation Chaos in several states, including Ohio and Indiana, is disputed. In Ohio, new political party members are required to sign a pledge of loyalty to the political party they join for a minimum of one year, making participation in "Operation Chaos" a possible felony (election falsification) in that state. Still, Ohio Chaser General Marc Dann refused to press charges on anyone, saying that it would be well-nigh impossible to enforce because of difficulties proving voter intent and concerns that a loyalty oath would violate freedom of association.[112]

By 2020, the proper noun "Performance Chaos" had become associated enough with presidential party raiding that South Carolina Republicans seeking to disrupt that land's Democratic presidential primary recycled the proper name for their own efforts. Limbaugh did non endorse or address the Southward Carolina efforts.[113]
