WLS_AM Chicago...one of the oldest of Chicago radio giants appears to be ready to remove Limbaugh from it's afternoon schedule after many years in that slot. Robert Feder has been around the business in Chicago for a long, long time and typically does not release something like this without being fairly certain it's going to happen.

A Cumulus Media spokeswoman declined immediate comment. But a source familiar with the decision said it was based on the show’s diminished ratings and failure to generate advertising revenue for the station, adding: “It’s impossible to sell.”

After being advised that this was going up on Feder's blog on the Tribune Media Group, an unnamed Cumulus spokesperson denied Limbaugh was going. But that's not unusual when the plan is broken prior to an official announcement. It's taken a long time for many people to realize what a ridiculous shitheap this slot is...but better late than never. Which is not to say that some other Chicago station may pick it up...so we'll see.
