25. I agree and have been complaining about him for years. He is dangerous
because there's a lot of people who rely on him for 'news', not having a clue that he editorializes the news with spin, distortion and lies to further an agenda for which he is very well paid. When he gets caught in a lie, he says he is providing entertainment. Limbaugh is a pioneer in the disinformation market. Now we have a crop of these disinformation artists taking root like Hannity and OReilly because they've seen how effective Limbaugh has been.

Think about this....a sheeple gets up in the morning and watches Faux News over breakfast, goes to work and listens to Limbaugh, Hannity and OReilly on talk radio during the day, then comes home and watches more Faux News for the evening news. The lies, spin, and distortion are cemented in their brains all day long by being bombarded by opinion masquerading as news.
