Conservative talk-show host Rush Limbaugh recently renewed his contract with Premiere Radio Networks and Clear Channel Radio.
In a press release on Limbaugh's Web site, Clear Channel Radio President and CEO John Hogan said that “broadcasters of Rush’s quality come along once in a lifetime. We’re privileged to continue our relationship which is unprecedented in the history of our industry."
The deal includes syndication of "The Rush Limbaugh Show" "many years into the future," syndication of his 90-second commentary "The Rush Limbaugh Morning Update." Premiere Radio will also continue to oversee "The Limbaugh Letter", a monthly newsletter, and RushLimbaugh.com.
Limbaugh said on his Web site that “this is exactly where I want to be, doing what I was born to do. I’m having more fun than a human being should be allowed to have. There’s a relationship between the audience and the host here that is second to none."
Limbaugh's show celebrates its 20th anniversary this August.
