Way too long!  Something I was told years ago by a giant in the radio business was "Leave when you are on top....not when you're on the slide down".

Subject: Rush gone from WRKO

There is no way Rush or Premiere could positively spin a move from WRKO to WMEX or multiple suburban stations.
Losing WRKO over money gives Premiere ammo in negotiating with Rush next year.  Would Rush accept less money, announce a retirement, or go the paid subscription route?  

Two media stories this week:  Letterman retired and WRKO said no to Rush.  Letterman left at the right time.  Rush has stayed too long.
