Anyone who listened to Rush in those early days for some period of time  
would have to agree that he made fun of everything.  Before he was so  popular the 
commercials used for the spot filler were outstanding and very  funny.  Of 
course you had to have some sense of humor."Spatual City",   Bungee Condoms,  
etc.  all very creative and funny.  Also he was  one of a few conservative 
talkers on radio back then.  Now we have too many  all flavors.
 
I have listened to Franken and others on Air America and maybe I should  hang 
around for a week of listening but so far they haven't presented anything  to 
hook me or keep my attention.
 
Content does make a difference.  Personality adds alot.  The  success of Paul 
Harvey is a combination of both and has been a radio leader for  over 40 
years.
