Rush Limbaugh And The NFL

Now that Rush Limbaugh has been dropped from a group attempting to buy the St. Louis Rams, expect a number of articles like this--which point out the hypocrisy of the league based on various statements made by its current owners and...oh...the fact that it allows some controversial folk to play the game.

Here's the interesting aspect for me: I watched the parade of columnists and commentators on television on Wednesday denounce Limbaugh for "divisive" and "incendiary" comments.

Of course, the reason that these columnists/commentators had achieved national prominence...thus their opinion being sought...was for making divisive and incendiary comments. It's how they draw readers/ratings/attention.
