Syndicated Conservatives are on from 9am to 9pm. No one should be forced to listen to this much mind-numbing drivel just to catch the latest storm warnings.

I will repeat what I said earlier- these hurricane warnings should not be broadcast by a single source; every radio station should be putting these warnings out. There should be no one " official " source.
No one is forced, but its obvious the station is profitable if they can afford to syndicate Limbaugh. Clear Channel isnt a huge success because they put undesirable programs on the air. You are making a false assumption that democrats in Broward country are smart enough to listen to anything other than NPR. Which leaves thousands of republicans who listen to Limbaugh.
