Limbaugh hosts a radio show famed for its blustery denounciations of anything [[liberal]]. He is often at odds with [[liberal]] activist [[Al Franken]]<ref>[http://fireside.designcommunity.com/topic-9993.html Forum thread] discussing a NYT Editorial</ref>. He habitually refers to [[feminists]] as ''feminazis'' and to his own self as "talent on loan from God".

Limbaugh's style has been credited with "reviving AM radio in the United States, and is considered by many to have been a catalyst for the [[Republican Party]]'s 1994 Congressional victories"<ref>[http://select.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F10813FA3B5D0C708EDDAB0894DE494D81&n=Top%2fReference%2fTimes%20Topics%2fPeople%2fL%2fLimbaugh%2c%20Rush Radio Talk Show Host Fears For True Conservatism's Fate], New York Times</ref>.
Rush's conservative talk show is nationally syndicated and averages over 13.5 million listeners weekly, making Rush the '#1 Radio Talk Show Host'.<ref>

The Limbaugh Letter is a monthly publication that contains conservative articles and humor in Rush's style.

Rush has displayed his ability for biting conservative satire on the 1/2 Hour News Hour "comedy" show on the [[Fox News Channel]]. <ref>

In 2003, prosecutors gave Limbaugh's housekeeper and her husband immunity if they would testify that sold oxycontin and other painkillers to Limbaugh. The prosecutors also allowed the couple to sell the story to the National Enquirer for a six-figure sum, embarrassing Limbaugh. Limbaugh soon revealed that he became addicted to these drugs after undergoing back surgery, unlike those who do drugs for fun or to escape reality. He entered one month of rehab and claimed to be cured. After winning a legal battle for Limbaugh's medical records, prosecutors dropped charges when it appeared that most of the painkiller use was legitimately prescribed.<ref>[http://radio.about.com/library/bllimbaughstatement.htm]</ref>

In 2007, Limbaugh was finally nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize for his longtime work of promoting individual liberty and free markets.
