Rush's millions of Ditto Heads make think him a "wise commentator," but every attempt Rush has made in television has failed.
I think the same can be said for Howard Stern. His TV show was terrible, but he was a radio "giant", which I think is the same for Limbaugh. Some talkers don't work out in a visual medium.

I don't think Rush lasted a week following the uproar. Unlike Imus, he "resigned" rather than await the inevitable.
I think the difference here was Imus was blindsided. He was going to be suspended and just before THAT was to start he was immediately dumped.
Quote:
Imus belongs with Rush and the rest, on a some radio network that caters to his unique insult market niche.
What good would that do? As long as it's radio, someone will be offended and call for his dismissal.
I figure Imus, Limbaugh, Savage, Olbermann and the rest deserve to be right where they are/were. I think people who don't like them should use that little gadget that allows them to change the station.


Not a day goes by that I don't see something that reinforces my belief that people are idiots.
