Damn straight, Rush! CALLER: "You’ve broken the liberal propaganda machine, and it’s very, very cool. And I think that that’s why we’re seeing people scramble today and try to turn lies into truth, because without the liberal propaganda machine, liberalism doesn’t work. So thanks a lot for doing that.” RUSH: “…You nailed it. They had a monopoly. They used to be happy as clams, the leftists. They had a monopoly. They don’t anymore. It’s been busted up. And I think the destruction of their monopoly is what has turned them into just extremely mean people. I don’t think it’s any more complicated than that. They had their monopoly. They were very guarded for it. They were jealous of it, envious, and they just are fit to be tied that they have to deign to explain themselves to anybody. Who the hell are we? They shouldn’t have to explain themselves. And I think it’s one of the reasons why the media has dropped the façade of objectivity and has just gone full-fledged into the agenda, because it’s now – it’s open competition. “And you’re right in another sense. We here compete in what I call the arena of ideas. They don’t. They compete in an entirely different way. Their technique is to mischaracterize and destroy anybody opposite them who is credible. They do not come into the arena of ideas and talk about ideas with us. They do not debate ideas. They destroy people who can articulate ideas that they don’t want to hear. And I could give you a list of names of people who try. It never ends. And new people get added to their enemies list every day. “… I mean, that’s HUGE, to have a monopoly, and the media had one. I mean, they were it! And they determined what was news and what wasn’t news and what was covered and what wasn’t covered. They determined how. They determined who was going to be covered. They determined everything – EVERYTHING. And now that’s long gone. They don’t have that monopoly anymore. And much of what they do is for each other as they, every day, try to demonstrate to themselves that they still have similar powers as they had, like they had, when they had their monopoly.” -- Rush Limbaugh, 10/04/13, Hour 2
