Default Shorty Antenna?

I cleaned my car yesterday, when I got over to the passenger side, I noticed that my antenna was a little loose,so I go to tighten it. It does not tighten,just keeps turning. I look at the base,and the inside is all rusted. Anyone else have anything like this happen? I do not listen to the radio much,so its nothing more than a cosmetic problem. Just looks bad without the antenna

His antenna wont screw in tightly because it's rusted out.

If you dont use your radio I'd just glue it in there with some strong glue.
