"Former right-wing operative David Brock is urging the Pentagon to get Rush Limbaugh off American Forces Radio," Terence Samuel reports in the Washington Whispers column of U.S. News & World Report.
"Brock, now president of Media Matters for America, a group formed to combat the influence of conservative media outlets, says that the government shouldn't be sponsoring what Limbaugh is peddling. The popular talk show host, whose radio program is heard at military installations worldwide, has said that what happened at Abu Ghraib was little more than what happens at a fraternity hazing. 'It is abhorrent that the American taxpayer is paying to broadcast what is in effect pro-torture propaganda to American troops,' Brock wrote to [Defense Secretary Donald H.] Rumsfeld. No Pentagon response so far."

He should go to Massachussets, get married, and settle down already.
The sanctimonius handwringing is getting old. Mr. Brock, if you're so concerned about morality why not speak to things more serious. Meanwhile, we'll fashion a RUSH/CHENEY 2004 bumper sticker just for you.
Perhaps he could suggest that Michael Moore remain in Cannes.
Rush also nailed the 'Rats and the media for their true motivation with this story, to hurt the President--even if it demoralizes our military and encourages our enemies. So Rush did slip in a joke about the incident resembling a Skull & Bones initiation, which at least puts it in some context and infuriates the Democrats.
Quite a title for a guy who wrote a few unrefuted stories about Bill Clinton a long time ago! (And this was in the Washington Times?)

And have a baby, too. Although most queers are too vain for stretch marks.
I had to look at that a couple times, but if that scale is right, with 100 on top and increasing as you go toward the bottom of the chart, then it would seem mediamatters.org is winning. Can someone explain that scale cuz I know that can't be the case.

David Brock's brain is fried from his gayness. Wonder who put up the money for this org......Soros?? A.N.S.W.E.R.??
Rush really is poison for our troops...now, if only they could hear a voice of reason like Al Franken or maybe Randi Rhodes...
Hmmm why would our troops want to hear the most popular nationaly-syndicated radio personality of all time praddle on about being a proud American and supporter of the troops?
We don't want to ENCOURAGE those over-grown frat boys into killing more babies, do we????
:-p
Brock, now president of Media Matters for America, a group formed to combat the influence of conservative media outlets, says that the government shouldn't be sponsoring what Limbaugh is peddling.
Yet, it would seem he has no problem with "Public Radio" being government sponsored. Some double standard!
And that's a logarithmic scale too.
The public is already sick and tired of this story. Only the New York Fishwrap is staying with it for its inbred audience of "Deliverance"-type liberal morons.
but I am sure he is completely supportive of the government sponsorship of the balanced, responsible, 'nere do wrong actions of NPR.....
The last I heard Rush and the EIB were free market driven.
Perhaps David meant NPR?
If it is ANSWER then it is probably still Soros, or maybe it's ketchup money.
