Default Re: Limbaugh Smear Letter: Why Talk Radio is Needed

One thing we can all agree on (I think), whether is be MoveOn or Rush Limbaugh: it is a terrible waste of time and money for Congress to start condemning speech by private individuals or organizations.

Not to hijack, but since this thread does deal with talk radio, I wanted to mention an interesting story that a few might have missed. A few days ago Air America's Randi Rhodes was injured while walking down the street late at night.

Apparently there were rumors that she was attacked, prompting fellow Air America host Jon Elliot to say this: "This does not appear to be the standard grab the money and run robbery. Is this an attempt by the right-wing hate machine to silence one of our own." To be kind, this man must be an ungodly idiot.

The story is still evolving, but this "attack" was then reported to be an injury while walking her dog. However, her attorney wouldn't answer direct questions on what exactly happened. Now there is speculation that she was drunk and fell down. No matter what, I hope she has a speedy recovery. It would also be nice if Jon Elliot would DIAGF.
