Seattle/KVI Radio: Rusty Humphries replacing Rush Limbaugh.
John Carlson announced tonight that a local Rusty Humphries show will be replacing the 9-12 am Rush show. He said that it was because of politics in another place or something like that.

I have never heard Rusty Humphries so I don't know whether he is worse or better than Rush Limbaugh but I couldn't help but wonder if perhaps Rush was not doing too well here. Just maybe people are catching on to his hateful lies and distortions.

11. This guy sounds like "Rush Lite"
NewsMax has a hard-on for him.... that's worrisome enough for me!

The blowhard bio is here

If you read his articles you'll see he'll keep the Rush fans happy.
YEESH!

3. Isn't there another wingnut station in Seattle?
Maybe they will carry Rush's show.

Uggghhh - I haven't listened to that big fat idiot since 1996, when I decided I should know the enemy.

4. He's just moving to 770
From KVI (Kooks, Venom, Innuendo) to KTTH - the station with the ridiculous "You Deserve the Truth" tagline.

5. Oh, Is KTTH the sister station of KIRO?
I thought I heard that and got really depressed. It seems like now we have two or three rightwing am stations and only one (KIRO) that has some moderates/liberals.

Hopefully this isn't the case.

8. KTTH tried to get me to advertise!
I have a small business. This happened last week or so - she called me before the store opened and told me about their great station. I almost choked on my tea. I had an electrician and an early customer in the store, so I didn't say what I really wanted to ("Fuck off and die, Nazi pig") but I did laugh and tell her that it certainly wasn't my style, and I asked her if she was getting a lot of takers among female small business owners. She just mumbled, fumbled and I hung up.

13. Good for you!
And whenever the Seattle Times calls I tell them I will subscribe when they withdraw their 2000 endorsement of George W. Bush.

14. Dont' hold your breath!
Until the repeal of the Estate Tax is etched on Mount Rushmore they'll kiss the butt of any Estate Tax foe.
