RUSH LIMBAUGH TALK SHOW TO APPEAR LOCALLY ON TELEVISION

"Rush Limbaugh," the television show, will be broadcast five days a week beginning Sept. 14.

The half-hour late-night talk show will include viewer call-ins and polls, news analysis and occasional guests.

Limbaugh is the host of the Rush Limbaugh radio talk show. It boasts 12 million viewers on 500 syndicated stations, and is heard locally on radio station KZIM.

The television show will be produced by Emmy-winner Richard Mincer, who produced "The Donahue Show" for 17 years.

The set is a den-like setting, with television monitors, newspapers and fax machines. The walls are adorned with various broadcasting awards won by Limbaugh.

Broadcast time has not yet been announced, but it can be seen on the local CBS affiliate, KFVS.

Limbaugh is also the author of "The Way Things Ought To Be," soon to be published by Simon & Schuster.

Limbaugh is a Cape Girardeau native who began his broadcast career at 16 as a deejay at a local radio station. After a stint in college, Limbaugh continued his career in Pittsburgh and Kansas City, but by 1983, he was a political commentator at KMBZ, Kansas City.

Next came a midday talk show on KFBK in Sacramento. In 1988 in New York, he created his "Excellence in Broadcasting" network.
