Talk Radio Watchdog

Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Idiot

So I was just in the car and decided to see what Limbaugh was up to. (His 14th Oxycontin of the day -- BAM! Zinger!) And in the space of an hour, I heard:

-Obama is slipping in the polls. Really?
-Obama and the "Democrat" Party are injecting racism into the campaign. This from the guy who called Senator Obama "Barack the Magic Negro" and "that little black man-child."
-Obama is in the middle of the Wall Street bailout mess. Flat out lie.

I've heard from a couple of fellow liberal bloggers who have told me that FNC and far-right talk radio aren't what's keeping the polls relatively even. But I can't imagine how they're not. The most popular talk radio show in the nation is, in fact, a three-hour free infomercial for John McCain. That doesn't even include the dozens of other hosts on more than 1,000 conservative-owned talk stations nationwide doing the exact same thing. And this doesn't shape the stereotypes and caricatures about Senator Obama? I find that hard to believe.
