After the recent death of beloved radio host Rush Limbaugh, a massive hole has been opened up in the realm of conservative broadcasting. One that many are afraid may never be filled.
But, according to a new report, GOP star Dana Loesch is definitely going to try her best to do just that.
As The Hill reports:
Conservative talk radio host Dana Loesch says she isn’t trying to fill Rush Limbaugh’s shoes. But she’d obviously love it if people started thinking of her that way…
In a press release announcing her deal, it said the contract solidifies Loesch, the former spokeswoman for the NRA, as the “heir to the Limbaugh throne.”…
According to the trade publication “Talkers,” Radio America recently reported that “The Dana Show” has replaced “The Rush Limbaugh Show” on several stations, including KURV-AM in McAllen-Brownsville, Texas; KJNO-AM/FM in Juneau, Alaska; and KJMT-FM in Little Rock-Pine Bluff, Arkansas…
In the Radio America press lease, Loesch welcomed Limbaugh’s “loyal listeners to the ‘Dana Show.’” She told The Hill that she believes her “happy warrior” approach sets her apart from the rest of the talk radio competition.
Those are awfully big shoes to fill. Hopefully she has the stamina.
Sorry folks. They may get a stand in, but NO BODY will replace Rush!
I was under the impression that Dan Bongino was tapped for this slot
He was and is,
Dana is on her own competing with Dan Bongino.
She’s hotter than Dan but can she deliver?
If you are a conservative you know two things:
While Rush can never be replaced, it is good that we have a few other Conservatives trying to fill that void.
I hope they’re not competing in the same time slot.
Awesome
Not really taking his place if the syndicate in a few states dropped Rush’s show.. The EIB network will remain and Rush will fade and a new “not as great” will take his place! I would prefer a Bongino, Jason Lewis split.
Dana can’t hold a candle to Dan. Sorry!!
As much as I love Dana, she is NOT the heir apparent. I wish Rush would’ve designated someone to take over the show. There should ALWAYS be an official “Rush Limbaugh Show” in perpetuity, even with him being gone…
Personally , with Mark Stein out there, and a few other radio personalities who regularly where chosen, over the years, to fill-in for Rush , Dana is not at the top of the heap. Pretty grandiose of her to intimate that she is . Kinda reminds me of Nikki Haley. A lot of wannabe ambition.
I thought Dan Bongino was taking that spot
No way! She’s not that great on a regular show. Not !
Please no. She gets so emotional and snotty. I use to listen to her, but finally had to stop. In my opinion, she’s a lot like Glenn Beck. They go off on a tangent when you least expect it. I understand that the whole “tough lady” act appeals to some, but she’s just over-the-top. I’d sure rather see Dan Bongino’s show replace the time slot- but NO ONE will ever replace the man, Rush Limbaugh.
hang it up. No one can fill RUSH’S SHOES!
Especially, a woman.
Dan Bongino is actually taking over the 12-3 slot on may 24th
