6. Hate radio is ...hateful by design. Limbaugh and RW radio in general are damaging the country.

It's true and I agree something needs to be done about it, but I don't care to adopt Limbaugh's messaging to do it. The answer lies not in dividing the country and seeing ourselves as separate, diametrically opposed 'others' as Limbaugh and the Republican Southern Strategy do. The truth is that we all have a lot more in common than we realize and at some point, we need to figure out how to bring us all together. Hate and anger aren't going to do it.

Skip to 3:20 for the bit that sortof applies. I don't why your post made me think of it, but there it is.
