Rush Limbaugh Dead At 70

One of America's most listened-to radio personalities has passed away at age 70, according to TMZ.

Limbaugh, who started his radio career in the '70s, was best known for hosting "The Rush Limbaugh Show," which has been in national syndication since 1988 and made him one of the premier voices of the conservative movement for three decades.

The 70-year-old announced his lung cancer diagnosis a year ago.

However, his condition worsened recently and Limbaugh's family reported the radio personality died on Wednesday.

His wife, Kathryn, announced on his radio show that her husband had passed away.

"Rush will forever be the greatest of all time," she told listeners.
