**Exclusive** The American broadcast industry is rocked, realigned and blasted into a new orbit, yet again, by Rush Limbaugh, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. In what is being described as an unprecedented radio contract, Limbaugh will keep his syndicated show on-the-air and e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e through 2016 with CLEAR CHANNEL and PREMIERE RADIO. Already host of the most lucrative hours since radio's inception, Limbaugh's total package is valued north of $400 million, according to media insiders. The NEW YORK TIMES will claim this weekend that Limbaugh, marking 20 years this summer as a national host, has secured a 9-figure signing bonus for the new deal, newsroom sources tell DRUDGE. MORE In its controversial profile, the TIMES reports that Limbaugh is buying a new G550 jet and is making an estimated $38 million a year. Bully for him! You know what the chain of command is? It's the chain I go and get and beat you with 'til you understand what's going on around here. |

Just shows how gullible some people are.
That someone who spouts hate and vitriol on a regular basis and profit from it is quite ironic. But it's only a matter of time before someone on the other side get's a similar deal...... |

Just goes to show that some people like their news from a Junkie, who to show how fair he is, advocates the death penalty for junkies who haven't been caught. But he's reenforced my belief in God, because every once in a while a miracle occurs and a little detail of truth slips into his broadcasts... Dave |

The "other" side will never make what Limbaugh makes.

COMMENT: That should make things more accommodating for him to get his illegal prescription drugs or fly in more hoagies to fill out his skinny frame. |

That's pretty much BS, he went to rehab got clean and is no longer on those Rx's. I am not a Rush fan, however your comment about his Drug problem is BS. As matter of fact, if someone said the same about you, how would you feel? |

I disagree. Sharpton IS as Disgusting. |

Oh my GAWD! Prayer line requests for the Fairness Doctrine just went up 1,000%. Oh, that's right... libs aren't into praying.
You wait... if Osama bin Obama makes President and Congress goes more Democratic, the fairness doctrine has a lock. I mean really, it's only fair (they'll shreik)! I absolutely laughed outloud when I read this... |

And he paid the same price for his crimes, as he repeatedly stated should be paid?
How much jail time did he do? Actually did the poor little hypocrite even get a slap on the wrist? Dave |

COMMENT: Well, I've never used any illegal or illicit drugs in my life of any type, so it'd be a complete fabrication. Limbaugh had a legitimate problem that he tried to "skirt." So, Limbaugh is a bit of a hypocrite given his past actions. If he's "kicked" his addiction, good for him. Perhaps he should be a little more sympathetic with others with recreational drug problems. Now ... I don't think Jarod from Subway faces any forthcoming competition from Limbaugh as an advertising spokesman. |

No, he did what any AMERICAN CITIZEN has a RIGHT to do. Defend himself in court by any legal means. Now go ahead and tell me YOU wouldn't do the same! |

Sharpton? No jail yet, but he's got some sereous IRS troubles and may join Wesley soon.

This is gonna hurt the libs around here something awful ... (WAHHHHH)
BUT The FACT is Rush has a product that millions of people want. (13 million if I'm not mistaken) If not the MARKET would not sustain his show. Advertisers and sponsore would not support him if her did not get the rating. Air-head America is learning that lesson, slowly painfulluy. |
