to make sure no one would think they were related.

3. Not that it's a bad thing

When you change your sex a name change is recommended.

4. Rush was arrested...

for public homosexual activity and used his radio DJ name when he was arrested, hoping to protect his real name. (this story has been discussed on DU many times).

8. Thanks. This is interesting

I'd like to find out what homosexual "acts" Rush was doing.

17. Rush did in fact have a gay mentor named Norm Woodruff
LAST EDITED ON Jan-02-03 AT 03:41 PM (ET)

Rush did in fact have a "gay mentor" named Norm Woodruff, who "taught him how to dress". This does not make him gay, but it certainly is an amusing image to think of tough-guy Limbaugh off on a care-free shopping spree with his gay "mentor." I think that this fact combined with Rush's public homophobia is bizzare to say the least.

Here's more:

Yes, Jeff Christie is Rush Limbaugh ! Jeff Christie was at KQV twice in the early seventies. Jeff originally came to Pittsburgh to work at WIXZ. He came to KQV to do nights in 1972. A number of the phrases we still hear on his Rush Limbaugh show today on more than 600 stations "all across the fruited plain" were heard when he was on KQV. You can hear a sample of Jeff's work during the 14K days at the Reel Top 40 Radio Archives. He returned for a short time during KQV's final days of top 40 filling in middays before moving on to Kansas City. Rush Limbaugh's EIB network came from a term he used here in Pittsburgh in the early seventies. EIB = Excellence In Broadcasting.
