White Noise, White Space For Great White Chief
By Ed Kilgore

It’s not entirely clear what’s going on with sponsorship of Rush Limbaugh’s radio show, but some weird things are happening. As Media Matters noted today, there was a noticeable “dead air” problem today:

Rush Limbaugh closed the first hour of his radio show on his flagship station, WABC, with 1:03 of dead air Monday…. Similarly, during the commercial break that led into the show, there was 2:38 of dead air.

This does not bespeak a robust or stable sponsorship platform. And while content seems to be disappearing from the live show, it’s also disappearing from transcripts of the previous shows that created this whole saga. Here’sThe Atlantic’s Elspeth Reeve:

RushLimbaugh.com appears to have removed parts of his radio transcripts from February 29 and March 1 in which he called Sandra Fluke a “slut” and demanded a sex tape as a thank you to taxpayers for subsidizing her birth control. The links to “Butts Sisters Are Safe From Newt and Rick” and “Left Freaks Out Over My Fluke Remarks” now show blank stretches of white space.

White noise, white space. Not looking real good for the Great White Chief of right-wing radio.

You are as stupid as tejek. Nobody wants this pos. Period,

only rich liberal idiots and govt. agencies buy volts.

.............reminds me of my two Democratic drone friends. Both of their wives ( a librarian <govt job> and an "artist") drive a Prius. As soon as I heard that, I knew they had to be ultra leftists. Sure enough.......after less than 5 minutes of directed conversation with each, I had heard enough and had to end the conversation so as not to risk my friendship with their husbands.
