I don’t listen to him but, as I understand it, Limbaugh played a heavily edited Gingrich tape today as accurate. It wasn’t. Did Limbaugh, at any time, state that it was an edited hit job?
All day he was calling the attacks on Newt a ‘hit’. (almost those exact words). So, yes. (he didn’t say the specific word ‘edited’, but he may not have known.. instead he was saying it was a ‘hit’ and countering everything with his own knowledge of Newt or counter-soundbytes.)
He said that a blogger named Riehl (sp?) was reporting that it was just a bit sliced out of a longer tape to be misleading. The whole, I guess, is about an hour long. He asked Cookie to listen to it, but either she didn't or didn't get through the whole.
