Last week in explaining why NFL commissioner Roger Goodell needed to put an end to Limbaugh's latest publicity stunt, I attributed racially insensitive quotes to Limbaugh that I read in two Missouri newspapers, saw on CNN and confirmed through a Google search. Prior to posting the article, I never found a denial of these quotes by Limbaugh, and had no reason to believe those statements were not true.

Left-winger not apology apology with a side of race baiting, gotta love it.

[Dinah Lord]

This guy is nothing but a tool.

[Grampa Dave]

Is Jason Whitlock pen name for Jayson Blair.

Or did Jason join Jayson and tried to present a wet dream as news about Rush.

[2111USMC]

Yep. Starts out reading good, but then turns to crap.

[sinanju]

In other words they all got the racist quotes from that Wiki page.

Whitlock must have caught some serious heat from his readership.

[Non-Sequitur]

I dislike and distrust everybody equally.

Except Jeff George, right Jason? Whitlock spent months telling everyone in sight how stupid the Chiefs were to allow George to sign with the Raider. And the Vikings. And the Redskins. And the...(fill in the blank). Joke around KC is that George must really have owed Whitlock some serious money.

You dropped the opening line of the article:

"Let me first apologize to Rush Limbaugh."

[MortMan]

No sale. Whitlock, Fox Sports, and the KC Star should be sued into oblivion, IMO.

[tricky_k_1972]

Auto-excerpt got me, usually I do it myself, but this time I let it do its job, I tried to post the whole article.

[Tribune7]

But on most days I see Limbaugh for exactly what he is: America's most successful race hustler.

Continuing to lie about Rush doesn't help Whitlock. I think Rush still has a case.

[Doogle]

he can’t apologize, he hasn’t the guts too

[Recovering_Democrat]

Shove it Jason, I hope Rush sues you too. Hack.

[Tribune7]

Whitlock must have caught some serious heat from his readership.

More likely from the K.C. Star's lawyers.

[Alberta's Child]

The irony is that Jason Whitlock has long been a "renegade" among journalists because he rarely ever toes the liberal line.

He even penned an article a couple of years ago that made its way here to FreeRepublic, and got quite a few positive comments here.

Jason Whitlock: Imus Isn't ihe Real Bad Guy

Whitlock has long been a scathing critic of "black gangsta" culture in professional sports, and his reference to "the Black KKK" in the article below was remarkable, to say the least.

Jason Whitlock hates his mom, wants to be Obama’s lover, and he is also a pedophile.

Unless he refutes those claims, we can assume that they are true.

[massgopguy]

I heard that two.

-- I read in two Missouri newspapers, saw on CNN and confirmed through a Google search ... never found a denial ... [so] had no reason to believe those statements were not true. --

Gullible fool.

[fullchroma]

Whitlock must have caught some serious heat from his readership.

After this screed, I'd say there's more to come. Just more lies.

[MEGoody]

But on most days I see Limbaugh for exactly what he is: America's most successful race hustler.

The author is a hermit in a cave and knows nothing about what is going on in the world, or he's such an idiot he can't comprehend what is going on in the world, or he's an outright liar. None of the three options speaks well of this man.

I read somewhere that the original author of this article slays babies and drinks their blood. I have to note that nowhere on the ENTIRE Internet have I found him denying this, so I feel free to repeat it as fact here.

So this is the New Journalism? I like it! It seems really easy, what with the limited fact checking, and the free ability to say whatever I want under the guise of reporting the news!
