Emmis and the owner of The Rush Limbaugh Show, Premiere Networks, announced the decision on Monday.

... Despite the hefty price tag, “this was not primarily a financial decision,” said Charlie Morgan, Emmis’ local market manager.
“It’s not an inexpensive show to air, so there is a business element to the decision,” Morgan said. “But this has more to do with the long-term direction of the station.”
... Emmis officials could not immediately provide ratings numbers for the Limbaugh show. Still, Emmis officials say that the program, which airs from noon to 3 p.m. weekdays, is no longer the runaway ratings king among WIBC shows as it once was.
