Right-wing radio jock Rush Limbaugh promised yesterday to cooperate with police probing whether he bought black-market painkillers - an inquiry sources say could result in criminal charges against the conservative commentator.
Limbaugh stayed off the air yesterday and sought sanctuary from the swirling scandal at his Florida home. But his spokeswoman insisted he will be back in New York today to broadcast his popular radio show.
"He will be on the air tomorrow," Keven Bellows of Premiere Network, which syndicates the show, said yesterday.
Bellows, however, refused to answer when asked point-blank whether Limbaugh was hooked on drugs.
Limbaugh, 52, ducked reporters at a broadcasters convention in Philadelphia who tried to ask him about the Daily News report that he was under investigation in Palm Beach, Fla., for buying OxyContin, Lorcet and hydrocodone under the counter - and by the bushelful.
The News also confirmed key parts of a National Enquirer report that outed Limbaugh's former maid, Wilma Cline, as his pusher.
