Remembering Rush Limbaugh’s pivotal start in Sacramento

Before Rush Limbaugh became a conservative juggernaut in talk radio, he got his pivotal start in 1984 in Sacramento. “When he started, he was really more of an entertainer than a political animal as people know him now,” said KFBK Afternoon News Anchor Kitty O’Neal. “He was constantly playing pranks and jokes on the radio. He did a lot of that insult radio, which resonated with some and others despised. He was just more of an entertainer. He wanted to have fun. And it was often at other people’s expense. But that was his schtick.” Limbaugh worked at KFBK until 1988 when his talk show became nationally syndicated. See more in the video above.
