....yet Rush is pretty well ensconsed at Clearchannel/Premeire being the right wing schills they are.

Still I would love this to get even worse for Rush. Some thoughts:

Go after non-Clearchannel owned affiliates.

FCC obscenity complaints. Really what's more obscene, what he said or someone dropping an F-bomb accepting an award?

I noticed on a clip that Rush used Sledgehammer for his transition music. I'm not sure how it works with the rightsholders, but could you pressure them to have their songs pulled from the show. Of course considering CC owns about 60% of rock stationsI'm sure that's a fight no one wants.
