Glenn Beck has been #2 for quite some time now. I think he insists on saying #3 to be a smaller target.
Here’s another juicy tidbit – Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck have been directly measured by Quantcast, but only since March 2009. This just backs up my theory both of them are actively preparing for a future without terrestrial radio if it comes to that.
