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?


People fighting for their country abroad are not the same as your ordinary
couch potato partier. Many are actually interested in hearing what's going
on back home, and some are even right wingers who enjoy the likes of Rush.
Yes, the vast majority of music played on the FM here is
rap/hiphop/gangsta/garbage, but when it comes to finding out what's going on
back home, these guys like to hear both sides of the story a lot more than
you may care to believe.



You won't find out "what's going on back home" by listening to Rush
Limbaugh. That would give someone a highly distorted caricature of
current events at best. There's way more truth in the
"rap/hiphop/gangsta/garbage". It the "story" is true, there's only one
side.
