By the way some pundits are giving the New Media, namely talk radio credit for killing the immigration bill. If that's true and I believe it is,it makes what we do here all the more important as we often give news tips, leads, or at the very least different takes on existing stories to those on talk radio as well as others.
Yesterday I listened to an old tape of Rush Limbaugh addressing the National Association of Broadcasters in 2003, which occurred just after the Donovan McNab kerfuffle, after the revelation of his addiction, and before he went to rehab.
It was a powerful speech, telling his audience the power of talk radio, and that power was proved last week. Back room deals in Congress will never be the same.
