And that's exactly my POINT ! Your reaction is EXACTLY what Media Matters and others of like agenda are hoping to get. MOST folks don't hear his show, and playing upon that fact, the Left wing media who attack Rush ( or most conservatives ) want to paint the Right in the worst possible light.

Something very similar happened here recently, in another thread. THGR unloaded on ME over something he/she THOUGHT I had said, and then came back to apologize, once it was made clear what I had ACTUALLY said. I was quite impressed, to be honest. Most folks here reply on a hair trigger, and even if shown they are completely wrong, they'll stead fast hold tight to what they WISH were true, instead of admitting they had gotten it wrong.

I never considered The Washington Times to be a useful idiot outlet for Media Matters. It's generally known as a conservative paper. It's quite vexing.

As so often happens in media, a story gets put out there, and folks just run with it. Saves them from having to do any work themselves , I guess. Read a cross section of stories from different papers, and you'll see they all read nearly exactly alike. It's quite common.
