Excuse me but I understand from Rush that he is an entertainer and his program is entertainment. Rush has taken great pains in the past to say he is not a journalist but an entertainer. The author lost me on this point.
The Rush thing is way too political right now. Spin like this makes Rush look real bad. It looks too much like Rush is trying to spin his way out of something. I've asked before, what does Rush have to hide?
"A guy with a microphone ... speaking words that convey thought ... thought that some see as dangerous ..."
THAT is how Rush has portrayed himself LITERALLY (got it on tape) ...
