102. he makes money off that arrangement
in other ways as well -- he pushes things like his "Adopt a Soldier" program at the "reduced price of 49.95".

However, in an article from HuffPo, they state that tax dollars pay to run AFN, which is a very good point. but what would I, as a "liberatard" know anyway? I get called that a few times a day, due to his show...and it gets old. He is full of hate and rage and misinformation. If they want to label his show as "comedy hour", that's another story. But it strikes me as propaganda since he carries water for the GOP and lies about facts constantly and people listening are under the misguided idea that he is telling them the truth, as in facts -- not opinions. And since when did ignorance become an opinion???? I guess when he popped his first illegally gotten Oxy-contin.

And remember his "phony soldiers" remark that he claimed he never said?

Media Matters has it

Loved this comment from a poster, playing on Rush's "apology" on behalf of Media Matters for their "lies":

"Since you will never get an admission from Rush Limpaugh for characterizing him as a pompous windbag; since you'll never get an admission from Bill O'Really?; since you won't get an admission from Fox News or anybody who works there -- to all of you with half a brain -- I want to admit to you for them for the, again, denial over something that you already damn well know regarding their honesty and their commitment to falsification and misrepresentation last week on their programs. I really regret that it happens, and I admit it to you on their behalf since they won't. "
