(9,090 posts)if talking money in politics progressives and analysts always ignore republican talk radio which if they would pay $1000/hr x 15hrs/day x 1200 radio stations is worth about $5BIL/yr selling the pretext for citizens united, the supremes to pass it, voter suppression legislation based on lies about 'illegal' aliens voting for dems, global warming denial, and so on
shiff and co did a great job except for missing the opportunity to say "trumps whole defense came out of limbaugh's ass" or "that's what limbaugh said over and over but it's not true" something to that effect.
there is a giant pile of shit under the senate rug. the cons know how important limbaugh was in establishing their alternate reality, keeping them in power, intimidating them, attacking their opponents, and passing their undemocratic crap and all dems have to do to is finally acknowledge it and put limbaugh in front as their real leader and 'genius' liar/mentor.
until democrats stop ignoring talk radio that corporate crap is going to continue.
