Rush Limbaugh signs a contract through 2008, for 250 MILLION DOLLARS. Rush will receive a 35 million dollar signing bonus as part of the deal. Rush's annual salary will be more than Brokaw, Jennings, Rather, and Barbara Walters- combined! Now, that entertainment! ------------------
They should've gone after pitching with that money. ------------------ It was the time of the preacher, in the year of '01 Now the preachin' is over, and the lessons begun . . .
Thank God he's a such a great journalist. I hope he doesn't EVER b**** about the salaries of pro athletes, actors or musicians because he just eclipsed them all. ------------------ How the hell should I know why God would allow the Holocaust. I don't even know how the electric can opener works. - from Hannah and Her Sisters
He is not a journalist, he is an entertainer. That is the reason I get such a chuckle when people get worked up over his opinion. He is just an funny, intelligent, argumentative, and controversial man with an opinion. He is nothing more. BTW, I think I have heard him complain about sports salaries. I would love to hear him explain those quotes away. ------------------
Has anyone found a published report on this contract? I still haven't found one yet. Rob *EDIT* Never mind, I found an article: http://www.nypost.com/entertainment/34979.htm ------------------ I work in radio in Lubbock.

Rush Limbaugh, Barbara Walters, Jim Rome and Oprah Winfrey need to all hold hands and walk into a rotating helicopter blade together. ------------------ "Blues is a Healer" --John Lee Hooker
Tex, now how could you leave Dr. Laura off that list? ------------------ How long do I have to endure this ?
I apologize. Dr. Laura should have never been left off that list. Come to think of it, I think there is now a waiting list for the list we are talking about! ------------------ "Blues is a Healer" --John Lee Hooker
I still get a chuckle out of Letterman's interview of Rush in 94. Dave asks: "Do you ever wake up in the middle of the night and just think to yourself, `I am just full of hot gas`?" ------------------ I'm so amazingly cool you could keep a side of meat in me for a month. I am so hip that I have difficulty seeing over my pelvis.
Sure we all have opinions. My opinion is he is a scary white conservative egotistical bigot that needs to get some excercise or else he will die from a heart attack with all those steak dinners he will be buying with that 250mil and that hes not very funny at all. Nothing more... ------------------ This space left intentionally blank...
Mr.Oily you're well-known, sir, for your lenient stance on crime. But suppose for a second that your house was ransacked by thugs, your family tied up in the basement with socks in their mouths, you try to open the door but there's too much blood on the knob ------------------ Ceo of the Walt Williams and Lisa Malosky fan club. atheistalliance.org [This message has been edited by DEANBCURTIS (edited July 16, 2001).]
My question is about the budget, sir. ------------------ Ceo of the Walt Williams and Lisa Malosky fan club. atheistalliance.org
Man, I just saw Rush on TV. He is blonde and must have lost 150 lbs. I barely recognized him. ------------------
Who has a basement in Houston? ------------------ How the hell should I know why God would allow the Holocaust. I don't even know how the electric can opener works. - from Hannah and Her Sisters
Somebody who hired a really lousy architect to design their home! ------------------ "Blues is a Healer" --John Lee Hooker [This message has been edited by RocketMan Tex (edited July 16, 2001).]
Well done, Dean. Well done. You got everything but the "flames added for effect by FOX." ------------------ Rockets need power forward. Mo near now. Go near Mo. You can Run from the bet, you can Rave at the bet...but you just can't hide.
