Limbaugh to make $38,000,000 a year

Pity poor Rush. He works a long, hard, grueling, soul-smashing 15 hours a week, yet only makes $38,000,000 a year. Poor, poor, poor little Rush.

After inking a new contract with Clear Channel's Premiere Radio Networks, has-been right-wing radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh will make about $38,000,000 a year for the next 8 years - plus a 9-figure signing bonus.

They renewed this shit for 8 more years? Nobody's listened to Rush's diatribes in the past 5 years, so why are they giving him 8 more years to coast on the crumbs of his miserable career? And paying him hundreds of millions for it?

Maybe I should go right-wing too, so I can make 5,000 times the money as I do now for doing one-third the amount of work.
