First radio station to cancel Limbaugh - Page 2 - PeachParts Mercedes-Benz Forum

So Bush's speech last week extolling the many benefits of exporting US jobs to India was just a media hack job? Thank God - I was worried he was actually saying this.

His hearty endorsement of India's nuclear proliferation - also fiction? Whew.

It's good to know these positions, radical for either party, were made up and patently false. I'm now able to relax and enjoy the most gifted and wise leadership our nation has ever enjoyed.

WBAL, Baltimore's 50,000 watt flamethrower, has cancelled Rush as of May 31. They cite a desire to focus more on local issues, and Rush doesn't do local issues. Another station will likely pick up the Baltimore market for Rush, but his numbers are not as high as previously.

So.... how is this one not a case of reformatting?

Our local talk FM just dropped Tony Snow and replaced him with Rush. I say good move. With Tony you had to listen to the entire show to get the message. With Rush, all you need is the first five minutes!!!!

Never, ever, ever has any member of the administration - or even you for that matter, bone - successfully refuted the information contained in the document you continually refer to (to expand a bit; the administration has never tried to refute it, and you've never successfully done so). Why? Because the information was accurate. Find yourself another lame pony to ride, `cause you dun rid this`n ta death.

I'm glad someone else out there can see through the smoke and focus on the issues. The truth is out there, you just have to look for it with the blinders off. It's just overwelming all the denial and cover-ups being glassed over with superficial lies and an ignorance for the truth. Tell it like it is, not the way your told to believe. Question authority, always, It helps to reveal the truth.

yeah..48% of the population can't come up with a platform for the last two elections...or do anything but rant about the other 52% and yet they are the ones to point fingers. Slinging mud doesn't constitute a viable political platform...and the voters made that clear the last two elections.

Let me add I think its best if there was a honest and clear platform from both sides.....unlike they way it has been...with the right telling what they want to do and the left name calling and fabricating false news stories instead of presenting an alternative idea. THe results would be better for all if that happened.

But I seriously believe the Libertarians will soon have their moment in the sun....lets hope they make the most of it.

I believe CONSTRUCTIVE debate is good for the political system.....not mudslinging.

I can't believe anyone even mentions facts or truth in referring to the media news services, talk shows or their commentaries. It is all about fear, confusion and polarization; more broadcast and print with less reliable information. It is a myth that the media have any obligation to be factual or truthful. These shows are to entertain, misinform and disinform, but not to inform.

So. Be good little sheep and draw lines and take sides. But only about irrelevent non-issues.

You folks that are complaining about various media personalities shouldn't listen to them expecting information. 99% of what they say or print is conjecture and opinion, 1% is information.

If you want to know what the news is, scan the bottom scroll on the tv news. If you want to know what a politician thinks, read his or her speeches - yes READ them, the whole thing. It's pretty informative - could put you to sleep, true, but at least you can make a judgement about the content of their words.
