Hyper-leftist commentators are getting punked a lot lately. Thats what happens when one is constantly parroting talking points without bothering to fact check. Earlier this week David Shuster torpedoed his credibility (or whatever was left of it) by pushing the Media Matters narrative that Fox was banned in Canada. Punked. The latest punkee? Keith Olbermann.
A few weeks ago some hack decided to accuse Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck of using a service provided by the company that syndicates their radio shows: Premiere Networks (a subsidiary of Clear Channel).
The job, the email indicated, paid $40 an hour, with one hour guaranteed per day.
But what exactly was the work? The question popped up during the audition and was explained, the actor said, clearly and simply: If he passed the audition, he would be invited periodically to call in to various talk shows and recite various scenarios that made for interesting radio. He would never be identified as an actor, and his scenarios would never be identified as fabricatedwhich they always were.
I was surprised that it seemed so open, the actor told me in an interview. There was really no pretense of covering it up.
Curious, the actor did some snooping and learned that Premiere On Call was a service offered by Premiere Radio Networks, the largest syndication company in the United States and a subsidiary of Clear Channel Communications, the entertainment and advertising giant. Premiere syndicates some of the more sterling names in radio, including Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, and Sean Hannity. But a great radio show depends as much on great callers as it does on great hosts: Enter Premiere On Call.
WHOA, right? This Premiere Networks must be some Koch-funded astroturf outfit tasked with promoting conservative causes at all costs.

My favorite punking of Libs is to use the word “niggardly” in a sentence with “0bama”.
They go nuts. I let them carry on for awhile.
Then, I go into the definition and etymology of “niggardly,” which is an old norse word for stingy, and has never had anything to do with race.
But leftists are usually so stupid, they fall right into the trap.
Good fun!
They were politely informed that "kill" is Dutch for "river." At that point, they decided that "elsewhere" seemed like an excellent place to be.
I enjoy using the technically correct term for race(”negro”) when having discussions with libs.
Heh heh lol. That’s a good way to make ‘em go nuts! The fools.
>>I enjoy using the technically correct term for race(negro) when having discussions with libs.<<
Even better, if they object, tell them they are anti-Hispanic. Negro is the Spanish word for black.
I saw some leftie pimping this story the other day and my BS detector went off immediately. Conservative shows have to pay for callers? Riiiight.
We’re all African American.
It just depends on how long ago your ancestors left.
< / Out of Africa Theory >
I know a white guy who immigrated here from South Africa as a child with his family. His citizenship came through while he was in college, and he applied for and got a full ride African American scholarship for his senior year.
Apparently to hear him tell it, the black woman admin in the Financial Aid office was not amused.
I didn’t know faggots were meatballs. I know a lot of British folks and none of them ever used it that way. I just knew the bundle of sticks meaning.
Of course “gay” still means happy. So maybe if I’m ever asked if I’m gay I can say “I was yesterday, but not so much today.”
Along with Peekskill and Catskill, it was the Dutch (Henry Hudson) who first explored the Hudson River.
And don't even get me started on "Schuylkill." Last thing I need is to get into the whole SSRI-withdrawal thing. Probably not the most appropriate subject for humor.
If you really want their heads to explode, quote the late, great, Grand Kleagle of the Klu Klux Klan, DemonRAT, Senator from West Virginia Robert Byrd.
The late Senator Byrd was being interviewed on FOX News Sunday, by the late Tony Snow, and in the words of Senator Byrd, "I've known niggers..." but you must be respectful of Senator Byrd and remember he was the Lion of the Senate.
Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton and every other race baiting African-xxxxx were no where to be found.
there you go
I remember my mam and dad always haying we were having faggots tonight.

Wouldn't that make said wealthy white woman 'African-American'?
Excellent point.
I would argue that she is more “African-American” than black Americans who have been here for, say, 10 generations and more.
