Rush Limbaugh, the most prominent political radio host in the US, says he has been diagnosed with an advanced stage of lung cancer.
Limbaugh, 69, told his radio audience Monday that he was diagnosed with an advanced stage of the disease. He said the diagnosis was confirmed on January 20."I wish I didn't have to tell you this, and I thought about not trying to tell anybody, I thought about trying to do this without anybody knowing, because I don't like making things about me," Limbaugh said.
"My intention is to come here everyday I can and to do this program as normally and as competently and as expertly as I do each and every day, because that is the source of my greatest satisfaction," Limbaugh said.Limbaugh's radio contract was due to expire later this year. He renewed his deal with the syndication company Premiere Radio Networks in early January.
