Do you think the left is POed because Rush's listeners are up 60% since the Flucking mess occurred?

Rush: The advertisers who hung in here are going gangbusters, yes. I
mean, that’s the simple truth. The only ones who got hurt are the ones
who left. And that’s its own tragedy because they left under false,
trumped up, unreal pretenses. I don’t want to relive that. I just wanted
to answer the question without getting too specific, because
everybody’s asking about it.

Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, and Rush Limbaugh are losing fans in a key market. John Avlon on why listeners and station managers are sick of anti-Obama tirades—and who bucks the trend.
Here’s another sign that the tide might be turning against the Wingnuts— Glenn Beck’s TV ratings are down 50 percent and major market radio stations are dropping him.
That’s not all—a look at radio ratings shows that hyper-partisan talk has been declining or flat-lining between ‘09 and ‘10, despite the intensity of the election year. There’s a demand for something different—smart, un-predictable, non-partisan news is gaining market share because it stands out from the pack. And leading industry analysts say there is a market for more independent voices.
“There are a lot of program directors whose radio ‘spider-sense’ is tingling,” says Randall Bloomquist, a long-time radio executive and president of Talk Frontier Media. “They're thinking ‘this conservative thing is kind of running its course. We're saying the same things from morning 'til night and yes, we've got a very loyal core audience—but if we ever want to grow, if we want to expand, we've got to be doing more than 18 hours a day of ‘Obama is a socialist.
Cash from controversy: Glenn Beck made $32 M in the last year, says Forbes

It pays to be Glenn Beck ... and pays and pays and pays.
The controversial Fox News loud-mouth - hero to conservatives, dartboard fodder to liberals - made $32 million in the 12 months ending March 1, reports Forbes magazine.
His company, Mercury Radio Arts, churns out books, runs a profitable Web site and manages his sold-out appearances.
Beck insists he's not political, even after leading the charge against health care reform, feeding the frenzy of the Tea Party members and telling his loyalists President Obama has "a deep-seated hatred for white people."

Glenn Beck Dropped By New York City Radio Station For Low Ratings
by Mark Joyella | 11:21 am, January 5th, 2011
He may be a ratings powerhouse on Fox, but Glenn Beck has been a bit of a letdown for New York City radio station WOR, which announced this week it will drop Beck’s radio show effective January 17.
Beck, whose syndicated radio show is widely regarded as the nation’s third most powerful after Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, airs weekdays on WOR, which is one of New York’s two top talk radio stations.
Managers at WOR made it clear in an interview with the New York Daily News the programming decision was not about Beck, but the bottom line:
“The reason is ratings,” said WOR program director Scott Lakefield. “Somewhat to our surprise, the show wasn’t getting what we wanted.”
Being dropped by WOR likely means a scramble by Beck’s distributor, Premiere, to find a new home in the nation’s top radio market.
Far ahead on every loon station out there.
A poll the day before Fluke aired her sexual appetite and proclivities on world wide TV, and now might serve your purpose.
We'll stop covering Obama when Obama is removed from office. Just wait, it won't be long . . . .
Here is your original quote, "There’s a demand for something different—smart, un-predictable, non-partisan news is gaining market share because it stands out from the pack. And leading industry analysts say there is a market for more independent voices." I'm asking you to please let me know when you find this, because it sure isn't coming form the lamestream media.
