Plain silly idea for Dave Checketts to think by bringing in Rush Limbaugh, it would help his chances in winning the bid. Especially since Rush seems to hate blacks, and a majority of his employees might have a problem with that.
It's quote like this that are borderline on the concept of elitist.
I bet none of you even listen to his program, even once in a blue moon.
930 WBEN from Buffalo, 12-3 Monday to Friday... Check it out some time.
Rush's NUMBER ONE go to guy on air is 'Black', so you are saying that he only hires his staff based on affirmative action practices and racial/gender equality issues? (His #3 is a woman).
Many of these posts are simply going by what they see or hear in the media, never validating the truth of the arguments that you have been presented with.
As has been pointed out, Limbaugh now has the opportunity for a huge civil suit over this, as the quote that so much of this outlash has been based on has NO SUPPORTING EVIDENCE!
To say that the most successful radio broadcaster in history (self-accomplished for the most part may I add) is undeserving of public attention, is absolutely absurd...
Especially since he is basically the first PRIVATE person in American history to be addressed and 'charged' to the level he was two years ago, by the American Senate led by Harry Reid.
And I personally think his part-ownership of the Rams would have been quite interesting, because throughout his 20+ years in broadcasting his daily program, he has been an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan.
