...Their collective nickname says it all - they are the well-scrubbed ranks of "ditto-heads" - people who can be counted on to shout "amen," who have little to add but a grateful and admiring "ditto..."...Many of them probably also derive a sense of inclusion and pseudo-intimacy via this electronic fraternity of kindred spirits. Consider the somewhat pathetic character, Marty, who checks in daily with his radio "buddy," Sean Hannity, a Limbaugh clone. There are plenty of other Martys out there who regularly light up the call boards of right-wing talk jocks - among them G. Gordon Liddy, Matt Drudge and Laura Ingraham - who unabashedly mimic the Limbaugh formula of ideological simplicity...

"Pathetic" Marty - Sean's friend from his WABC audience (and when I met Marty this summer, he was sitting in a wheelchair) - was one of the incredibly brave soldiers who stormed the beaches of Normandy on D-Day during World War II. So who's pathetic now, Professor Ginnetty?

The highlight of Sean's show every day is that less than a minute that Marty is on the phone.

Alright! Sean is riled up about this a**hole professor and his idiotic comment about WABC listener Marty. Said he'll go into detail about it later in the show. I will probably not be here when he talks about it... I'm hoping another FReeper can fill in the details here for us. Anyone listening?
