Apparently, they finally succeeded in achieving that goal.
I'll have to check the shortwave relays next week to see if Rush is
still
on. I
recall the push to at least get him off, seemingly in contrast to what
the
troops
wanted.

How many of the troops are over 45 or 50? There are very few talk
listeners
(of the WLS / WJR / WGN type) under that age, so it makes sense to look
for
programming the bulk of the armed forces would enjoy, not just somebody
who
has been in long enough to make light bird or above.

Or maybe the troops just like Rush?



Isn't it amazing that never occurs to programmers?


When nearly nobody in the 18-34 demo in the US listens to Rush or any other
political talker, why would they listen when abroad?


Nice spin. People that call in to the program don't sound over 50. They
sound like they are 20 to 40 years old. Mom's with kids and many topics
revolve around kids, school.
