Report: Limbaugh, Hannity to be dropped by Cumulus

D

dB

"According to a Politico report, Cumulus Media — the second-largest owner and operator of AM and FM radio stations in America — does not plan to renew its contracts with either Rush Limbaugh or Sean Hannity. In practice, the decision will drop the two highly rated hosts from more than 40 Cumulus channels in major media markets.

According to Politico, the decision to drop Limbaugh and Hannity is financial. Cumulus and Premiere Networks, which distributes the two shows, have been unable to reach an agreement on the cost of distribution rights."

Negotiating tactics??? What are the chances of all sides reaching an agreement just moments before the current one expires?? I'm betting pretty good. Just like the last minute agreements you hear about all the time between cable/satellite companies and TV Stations/content providers. 'Oh we're going to drop your favorite channel... blah blah blah..." One thing for sure this all adds up to incredibly great publicity for all involved though.
