Rush Limbaugh Reveals He Has Advanced Lung Cancer

The conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh said on his live show on Monday that he had advanced lung cancer.

“I can’t help but feel that I’m letting everybody down with this, but the upshot is that I have been diagnosed with advanced lung cancer,” Mr. Limbaugh, 69, said during his broadcast.

“My heart’s in great shape, ticking away fine, squeezing and pumping great,” he said.

So I’m going to be gone the next couple days as we figure out the treatment course of action and have further testing done.

But as I said, I’m going to be here as often as I can.”
