Rush is a Johnny Come Lately on this issue, a band wagonner. This woman has been in this condition for 15 years, in the last week he's coming on strong. Stirring up the pot for ratings.

...that really is unfair of you to said that about Rush...In fairness to Rush, he really didn't want to talk about Terri Schavio, but the callers were insistent that this be discussed.....Rush is not an opportunist.....

I think many of us fill those shoes. This case wasn't really covered outside of Florida until recently.

Most of us haven't paid much attention until lately either.

Like it or not, when the news cycle explodes something, that is when people get interested.

Rush didn't want to talk about Terri at all. He would have been content to let her die without a word from him. He was pretty much forced by his listeners to speak up.

Yes last Friday Rush didn't know that Michael Schiavo had 2 children with his girlfriend. Only knew it after a caller mentioned it.

Shamefully I'm half inclined to agree. I think ALL of the 'new media' falls into this category, with the exception of maybe a few (e.g. Dennis Prager and Michael Savage come to mind... not sure how long Laura Ingraham has been on this...)

BTW I think the listeners/viewers have been instrumental in getting them to pay attention.

Why is that if people don't do what we would do or when we would do it or how we would do it, we challenge their motives? We are eating our own. I know from personal experience. I had to apologize once today already on another thread for saying something I later regretted. Slow down, think, before we post.
