Rush Limbaugh Goes After The Media For Shooting Coverage/Spin

(By Jon Bershad, Mediaite) - With the weekend over, we are now hearing many media figures’ reactions to this weekends’ tragedy for the first time. Rush Limbaugh spent a fair amount of time on his radio show today dealing with the issue. He railed against the media and the Left for their “predictable” attempt to blame someone (in this case, he claimed, the Tea Party or “the majority of the country”) for the act of one disturbed individual. Limbaugh is correct in saying that this was unsurprising. However, it’s unlikely that anyone would be surprised by Limbaugh’s own hyperbolic outrage.

“What an embarrassing weekend it has been for the media,” he began, calling the “state-run media” (as well as Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik) “fools.”
