Rush Limbaugh is America's least trusted news source.

Except for racist dittoheads.

1. He does news?

[Kingofalldems]

6. His little dittoheads think so. And they quote him chapter and verse.

11. There is actually a bust of this human waste in the MO Capital.

Paid for by MO taxpayers it makes me ill.

2. The real joke is thinking he reports any news. n/t

3. Interesting, But Certainly Not Surprising

And since i knew folks that worked at Pew, i always thought their methodology was sound and fair. So, i tend to believe numbers from their polling. Yeah, even when it conflicts with what i wish were the facts.

4. Rush Limbaugh IS NOT a news source

5. Less than InfoWars? The Blaze?

Ouch. That hurts. Poor guy. I actually feel bad for him.

Not, well, a lot, but still.

7. They didn't go as far as asking about InfoWars - that's too ridiculous for anyone

but yes, less trusted than The Blaze, or Glenn Beck's radio program:
Limbaugh: trusted 12%, distrusted 39%
Beck: trusted 10%, distrusted 24%
The Blaze: trusted 6%, distrusted 3%

Meanwhile, most trusted is CNN, both absolute (54%) and net (34%). ABC gets 50%/33%, NBC gets 50%/31%, CBS 46%/29%, BBC 36%/29%, PBS 38%/26%. Fox is 44%/7%, MSNBC 38%/16%.

9. I would definitely rank InfoWars below Rush Limbaugh.

8. Well, he always sez he is an 'entertainer' and a 'comedian'

whenever he gets in hot water over his comments. Why can't people take that at face value?

10. Rush Limbaugh is not a newsman

and neither is Thom Hartman. They are talkshow hosts. Their job is to get and retain listeners.
