RUSH LIMBAUGH: (New Harris Poll) AMERICA’S LEAST FAVORITE NEWS PERSONALITY

[kpete]

RUSH LIMBAUGH: AMERICA’S LEAST FAVORITE NEWS PERSONALITY | A new Harris Poll out today finds that conservative shock jock Rush Limbaugh is America’s “least favorite” news personality, with 46 percent of respondents picking him for the dubious honor. Runners-up Bill O’Reilly and Nancy Grace come in a distant second and third, at 31 percent and 23 percent, respectively. But more interestingly, Limbaugh is universally disliked. He is the only person whom Democrats, Independents, and Republicans alike chose as among their top three their least favorite people. (HT: Dylan Byers)

[HowHasItComeToThis]

1. LIMBAUGH IS A PROPAGANDIST

[cyberswede]

2. "news" personality

Or maybe it should read "news" "personality."

[snooper2]

4. The fact that the word "news" is there chaps my as

That ignorant fuck is a celebrity

[Aerows]

6. Agreed

He's a bag of shit, knows it, and keeps capitalizing on being a bag of shit. We demean our nation by letting a bag of shit run our national discourse.

He hates President Obama because the President has turned the national discourse away from stonenuts insanity don't know what to do with myself because I'm fucknuts crazy.

[Control-Z]

9. And that bag of shit just keeps getting bigger

and bigger. They showed a live shot of his radio show last week - he's gained so much more weight. I couldn't believe he'd allowed that kind of exposure.

[Aerows]

10. It makes me angry too

But what can you do? He's going to foam at the mouth. The issue is the people who listen.

I honestly think his audience is diminishing. Just let it dwindle, and stop caring about what he says.

[Aerows]

3. Even my father hates him

It's pretty clear that his brand of conservatism is getting thin. He's always branded himself as a Republican's Republican, but that brand has gotten sour.

I'm not offering sympathy. You reap what you sow.

[KansDem]

5. And he will wear their scorn as a badge of honor!

7. I didn't even read it

Because it wasn't worth my time, cher

8. Even OxyRush denies he's a "news" man.

He describes himself as an "entertainer".

He finds he gets away with less accountability that way.

The lying sleazebag.



And BTW Rush Limbaugh is a hardcore junkie pedophile.

[barbtries]

11. then why do so many people listen to him?

is he maybe going to fade away now?

[toddwv]

12. Radio ratings are largely self-reported.

It's a dirty little secret but there is no easy way to monitor what people listen to on the radio.

13. SMH

Rush Limbaugh is an Evil little man this much I can agree with, however he is a mere puppet for the real evil he spouts. “The tip of the ICEBERG” the “he is “just a Soldier of evil not the Commander of it” IMO. The real evil remains hidden as always.

[HopeHoops]

14. Where does "news" fit into it?

[zbdent]

15. shouldn't you have to report news to qualify as a "news personality"?

I thought he said he was an "entertainer" ... usually used whenever he spouts something vile and fairly controversial ...
