- .Rush Myth #930: His Audience is Individualistic, Attractive and
- Diverse
-
- . As I watched Limbaugh's television audience blow two "applause
- 'n'
- .smile" cues I got a good laugh at the demographics as the camera
- panned .across the audience, who were trying to sneak looks at the
- monitors to see .if they could see themselves (in the fashion of drunk
- football fans at large .arenas and religious fundamentalists at large
- churches).
-
- first off, Rush Limbaugh's audience is more intelligent, insightful,
- and generally awake than almost any other talk show. Consider the
- people on Geraldo? Or Arsenio? Or Joan Rivers?
-
- also, as to you're little Quote at the end of your post:
- I agree that Dan Quayle was a simpleton in office, but why is the media
- & public so quick to attack the Republican ex-VP and not the Democratic
- VP? During an Inaugrual tour of Washington, Al Gore asked a tour guide
- on 4 diff. occassions who various paintings & busts represented. Each
- time, the answer was the same - George Washington. Don't you think if
- Quale had failed to recognize our Founding Father, the press would have
- jumped on it?
-
- m.
- "So, who's the guy in the sissy-wig?" Al Gore
