country24 said:By the way, the man who created Rush's TV show is Bob Turner. At the time he was President of Multimedia Entertainment, a division of Multimedia, Inc. Now he's the Congressman representing New York's District 9, replacing Anthony Weiner.
Multimedia even owned WKYC/3 Cleveland (long an NBC O&O for decades prior) and STILL stuck the Rush TV show at 1:30AM. Mind you, WKYC also cleared Multimedia products Sally Jesse Raphel, Jerry Springer and Donahue at far more logical times.
There was probably a good reason that he was on at such a ridiculously late time: early on, WKYC had the Rush TV show at 11:00AM or 11:30AM (can't remember the exact time slot) so as not to encroach with the radio show, naturally. It must have done badly enough in the ratings to have merited such a demotion for the remainder of the show's lifespan.
