Surprise, Surprise
Rush Limbaugh has resigned from ESPN after saying something stupid on the air.
I know, you're stunned.
Not surprisingly, the remark that Limbaugh made was intended as a jab to the media. It just so happened that his remark also happened to be racist.
It's funny. Limbaugh was hired so that he could participate as "the voice of the fan." Instead he just brought his venomous anti-media obsession into a new arena.
To quote myself from September 9th:
Just to make the show even more obnoxious, ESPN has added Rush Limbaugh to the cast. It's amazing... even as a sports correspondent, he still blames the media for everything! The first thing I remember him saying is that if Bill Parcells is a flop as Cowboys coach, nobody will complain because Parcells is a "media darling." But then, he criticized the media for being too tough on other players who'd had run-ins with the law.
So long, Rush. Can't say I'll miss you.
