Why isn't Rush gone by now? This isn't just another Rush whine but some serious questions.

6. I tuned in for three segments, and three breaks

Break 1, Hillsdale College, Grasshopper Mower, Lifelock, Constant Contact, Pro Foot Insoles, Local Houseflipping ad.

Break 2, Local car dealer ad, Local Golf equipment sale ad, station Ad, local bottled water ad, station ad.

Break 3, Lifelock, Lear Capital, Station Ad, PSA

Break 4, Lifelock, Pro Foot Insoles, A national ad I don't remember, Station Ad

By station ad, I mean the radio station is doing a plug for its own sports coverage, etc.

As I understand it, the national ads go to him/his broadcasting company...and the sweetener that gets local stations to carry him is the lure of letting them air and profit from the local ads. So the show needs both to succeed.

From where I'm standing, there may be more station ads than usual; but, nothing devastating like what was reported in the LA market yesterday (I'm in Kansas). I am obviously in a much smaller market, so I don't know how meaningful my research is; but it seems like he will stay on the air in Topeka (the local advertisers seem unaffected).
