Yeah, he was only 44. Fish was cancer, diagnosed just a few weeks ago already at stage four. You can reassure your niece that we've got a long ways to go before Mark-Paul Gosselar karks it.

Re: RIP, Famous person
then he became a national blowhard because that was easier
Limbaugh accidentally fell into a successful formula apparently when working in Sacramento CA in the late 1980s. He was doing a Howard Stern type show. When said something to the effect, "I will do all your reading and I will tell you what to think."
It worked Eventually he moved to WABC in NYC. The station that was once the only rock and roll station in NYC. Then changed format. From there, he eventually syndicated and moved to Palm Beach FL. He simply took Howard Stern's style of strangely charismatic arrogance and turned it into nasty political targeting. Making him in\to a multi-millionaire.
Limbaugh was simply an early pioneer of hate radio that includes Alex Jones. A benchmark for hate radio (ie feminazis, calling Chelsea Clinton the White House dog, relabeling Eagle Quarterback Donovan McNabb as their token player, accusing Michael J Fox or faking his Parkinson's disease, calling Deepwater Horizon a conspiracy by eco-terrorists, mocking Iraq veternas for speaking out about the realities in that Mission Accomplished war, anc called Covid-19 nothing more than a common cold.
He has long been a benchmark for hate. It got him rich. And the Freedom Metal - the highest award that any American civilian can "earn".

I do think having an audience is part of the problem, but to me it's more of a "monkey on your back" situation--just like YouTubers who feel the need to constantly escalate, Limbaugh got into a cycle of needing to be more and more outrageously offensive in order to maintain the size and devotion of his audience. Having an audience doesn't disinhibit these folks directly, rather it's the terror of losing the audience once they have it.
