Interloper wrote:Maybe we're missing a larger point --- that Limbaugh makes his living by being provocative and outrageous. He rakes in the audiences, including those who violently disagree. They still hear the sponsors' advertisements, and that's good enough for the producers of the programming.
Limbaugh is not the first person to broadcast over-the-top opinions over the airways. He's just the one we' have in our lifetimes.

Steve James wrote:Fwiw, I would rather have Limbaugh (or Beck,etc) say these vile things and then stand behind them. When they come out later and say, "You know me. I just say things like that," it makes it impossible to take him seriously enough to argue with. Personally, I don't think he should lose his job. I think he "says" what a lot of people think. But, it would be great if I thought he actually believed what he said. Hey, who am I to talk? He has millions of people who listen to his show every day. If they believe him, that's not my problem.

And not that I really care but in my book, "I'm sorry, but..." isn't really an apology.
Saying that I don't think he should be censored but I have no idea why any female would listen to him.
