On Monday afternoon, America Live host Megyn Kelly spoke with Mark Stevens, the founder of the global marketing firm MSCO and an advertiser for Rush Limbaughs radio program who says his company has been targeted by people who want to put him out of business for his connection to the outspoken conservative host.
Earlier, Limbaugh had addressed the matter on his show, where he said that Stevens believes there is a coordinated attack on his business spearheaded by a group he wouldnt name, but that Limbaugh was happy to Media Matters.
Stevens, for his part, firmly intends to double down against what he describes as an act of internal American terrorism.
You dont have to strap on a suicide bombers belt to engage in terrorism, he told Kelly, Terrorism derives from the term to invoke fear in people. Theyve called my people and my company, theyve called the women at my company, and told them theyre women haters, the most horrible terms. Theyve told me these are tens of thousands of emails, by the way, most of them are positive but the small group theyve told us that were under surveillance. The email subject line says citizen of the internet, police of the Internet, Mark, youre in danger, your house is going to be surrounded by buses, your business is going to be destroyed, your people are in trouble. This is terrorism. Why dont we start calling it what it is?

No - the fact that right wing hate radio continues to thrive is internal American terrorism.

So this must mean Limbaugh is a terrorist himself considering what he said about the Dixie Chicks.
