- If you're going to go off on a diatribe, you might want to get
- the facts. First, Rush has always stated that his TV show was originally
- designed as a late-night show; since he tapes it during the afternoon, and
- uplinks it at 8 p.m. EST, this sort of is the only way it will really work.
-
- Even so, many, many stations air it during the day, albeit a day late. In
- fact, the Los Angeles affiliate has been airing the show at 3:30 p.m.
- consistently since Sept. 14th, when the show debuted.
-
- Thus, the question has to be asked - just what the heck are you talking
- about?
