Hannity, Limbaugh, Savage etc. are 24/7 propaganda for years on end. One of the problems with this country is that the extreme rightwing propaganda artists have indeed brainwashed about 10% of this country into believing that their propaghanda ia "news" or "information". It's not.

I base this on a poll done three years ago where 29% of Republicans said they get their "news" from rightwing talk radio. So this is a fact.

Thank God there is a counter-balance to this, or at least a small one. Michael Moore gets one shot at 30-40 million people every few years. Hannity-Limbaugh shoot at the same number of people every day. Yes there is a bias in the media, a rightwing bias. And it may help the rightwing seize power but it is very bad for this country because millions of people now are so ignorant they think Saddam was behind 9-11 and our enemy is the UN.
