Rush Limbaugh is going down – here's the proof
by Richard Myers
Dial Global Q2 Boosted By WW1 Addition But Loss Widens
In its SEC filing's recitation of risk factors, the company noted without naming names that the RUSH LIMBAUGH controversy has "significantly impacted" DIAL GLOBAL's business and has led to some advertisers in News-Talk formats pulling ads that ran in proximity to that show and caused some ads to get pulled even though DIAL GLOBAL does not syndicate LIMBAUGH's show. The company says it has made "meaningful changes to our internal systems and procedures to allow us to better separate our advertisers' ads from certain controversial programming," but warned that "such process has consumed time and resources, and notwithstanding our efforts, certain advertisers have exited news talk programming and may not ultimately resume advertising in this area of programming at previous levels, or at all. If we are unable to bring back advertisers into our news/talk radio programming, this would have an adverse effect on our revenue, which would have an adverse effect on our results of operations."

Dial Global's costs grew by 250 percent.
This is the second major radio network to report on the Rush impact; previously, Cumulus reported losing millions of dollars due to advertisers fleeing the program. Clear Channel, the largest network – which actually syndicates Rush, and is owned by Mitt Romney's Bain Capital, and therefore is at risk of being plundered into bankruptcy – is privately held, and isn't expected to report on the damage.

1. Yesterday couldn't be too soon for me! I regard R.L. as a major factor for
the division in the U.S. His spewed hatred knows no bounds.
If I had a nickel for every time that the DUmmies proclaimed Rush's downfall I could quit working.

I imagine that the question has come up here before, but I have to wonder if kpete has ever had an original thought in her head?

Rush is toast!!!!!!1111111

9. I remember a time..Sponsors were not used in NEWS
and it was objective then...short, but informative. Corporate sponsoring our news, it becomes a reality show for ratings...not informative.
Oh, so you're one of those mindless idiots who think The Rush Limbaugh Program is a news show.
Forrest's mother was right. Stupid is as stupid does.

Uh, there was a time corporate sponsors hosted the news.
<<just got done reading a 700-page biography of William Paley of CBS fame.
In fact, there was a time when corporations wrote the scripts for the news.

Yes, I know. Texaco, R.L. Reynold's, General Motors, Procter & Gamble, all sponsors of the old "news" shows.

Yeah, and that was during the 20th-century heyday of the Democrat party.

Those mouth breathing retards wouldn't know which end is up with an Arbitron ratings book.
Theres no way they understand what the hell they're talking about with that other crap.
-
DIAL GLOBAL does not syndicate LIMBAUGH's show
but we'll blame our crappy business on him anyway.
What MORONS!
-
Dial Global (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dial_Global#Talk_programs) syndicates Ed "F-Bomb" Schultz, Thom Hartmann, and a few other lib shows in addition to their regular sport and conservative talk programs.
Go ahead, DUmmies. I don't think Dennis Miller would have a problem finding another syndicator. Stephanie Miller? That might be another story.

Limbaugh is going down on kpete!
EWWWWW FLUCKING EWWWWWWWWW :rant:
-
some ads to get pulled even though DIAL GLOBAL does not syndicate LIMBAUGH's show.
I stopped reading her stupid Kostard copy/paste right here.
I dunno, maybe it was Mike Malloy that caused the advertisers to flee from the controversy.

EWWWWW FLUCKING EWWWWWWWWW :rant:
Yeah.
The rich bitch kpete looks frigid.
She makes Svalbaard look like Miami Beach.
You've seen her picture, of course.
She defines the ultimate in "frigid."

Hotter than Hell here.
I'm sealed up in a room with air-conditioning.
I feel as if I'm living in a submarine, looking out the porthole and wanting to go outside, but if I dare, I'm dead.

This thread title is probably making Limbaugh sick.

I have a VERY DIRTY MIND. Probably why I love Prince so much (his music) and I am being ignored by two people :hyper: My mind has served me and other's well. :p

I guess they didn't read that Carbonite's profits are down significantly as her Pro-Flowers, but keep deluding yourselves.

Ok Either i do not understand English or this person does not.
The article specifically says the company DOES NOT operate Rush Limbaugh show and the company that does Clear Channel is not required to report.... WHAT the F,,,,,,,, is this person talking about....

Ahhhh yessssss, another DUmmie jumps to conclusions and gets nut punched.
BC, I got dibs on our dirty girl. :naughty:
-
Looks like this company peaked in 2002 and has been a penny stock for quite some time.
-
Until the local radio station that carries Rush changes formats or Rush himself says he is done, then anything coming from the DUmp over this is just another wet dream never to come true.

You should rent and watch Das Boot while you have the environment to take advantage of.

Here is ONE example of the power of Rush Limbaugh.
Talk 1200 in Boston WAS a conservative talk radio station until this past Monday. Limbaugh moved his show to competitor WKRO, starting on August 21st.
Talk 1200 laid off their two local commentators, and ran syndicated conservative shows for a week, and then changed format to comedy radio, all day, every day.
So, for a host who is 'going down', Limbaugh is still capable of nuking a radio station from orbit by simply leaving. Try again, kpete.

When we first got TV back in the 50s, the only national TV newscaster was John Cameron Swayze, and he was on for only fifteen minutes each evening.
There was a big sign on the front of his desk as he read the news.
It said "PLYMOUTH presents John Cameron Swayze".
Later, the same big sign simply said "TIMEX".
DUmpmonkey Dear Abby is a moron.

i lol'd

Damn.
I clicked on this thread hoping I'd find that some completely asinine rambling of the Kaput DUmmy got picked up by the all powerful Maha Rushie, and held up in front of 20 million listeners as an example of how bad The Great Discombobulation is going to be in a couple of months. :doh:

Well, that's not right. Those commentators lost their health care and if someone in their family gets sick and dies, it's Limbaugh's fault.

Probably an advertising client on a local station. In addition to the national ads (pro flowers carbonite etc) local stations that carry Rush buy ad time around the show.
Like I said earlier...these idiots don't know shit about what they are talking about.
