A pretty funny development in the 'Rush/McNabb' saga

[wulfie]

Short version - a lefty professor wrote a paper a couple of years ago saying what Rush said.

He's now trying to distance himself from 'the paper', has removed the paper from the internet, etc.

Disclaimer - I, personally think Rush is a blowhard like most extremists right or left. I thought what he said on the ESPN show sucked because I watch football to watch football, not to watch 'left vs. right for in the self appointed crusade to 'save' the moderates of the world - round #328,383'. It is pretty funny reading though - watching this lefty professor try and weazel his way out of the position his paper has put him in.

Enjoy,

Network executives, that is, cater to viewers' "preference for diversity" in an effort to drive up ratings and therefore profits.

This doesn't sound so unreasonable. It's better than the "liberal controlled media" argument.

I think we may have discovered why the Earth spins: politics.

Why?  Because a Liberal wrote it?

Because network executives are potatos.
