Post Dispatch weaseling out of the controversy

Well, it looks like the Post Dispatch is trying to weasel out of the controversy that they started.  The whole thing started with a editorial by Bryan Burwell  posting the most ridiculous lies about Rush that I have heard of in a long time.  He got it from a book that had no source other than the author saying he had a source he can not tell about.  What Bullshit.    If this is a way of  the Post to try and say they are sorry for sstarting this crap, it will not work.

A quote in Bryan Burwell’s column Oct. 7 attributed to Rush Limbaugh about the merits of slavery in the United States cannot be verified, and its use did not meet the Post-Dispatch’s standards for sourcing.

Limbaugh said he did not make the statement.

Burwell’s column did not identify the source of the quote, which was Jack Huberman’s 2006 book “101 People Who Are Really Screwing America.” The book provided no details about the origin of the quote. When contacted by the Post-Dispatch, Huberman said that he had a source for the quote but declined to reveal it on advice of counsel. The book’s publisher, Nation Books, did not return calls to the Post-Dispatch.

The Post-Dispatch found references attributing the quote to Limbaugh in other publications and on Internet blogs as far back as 1993, but none of those cited a source.

So quoting from a source that has no way of verifying what was said is journalism  now.  This is beyond ridiculous.  No wonder the Post and all the so-called MSM are loosing readership.

Even Juan Williams is getting demonized now

This is getting out of hand.  Anyone that does not agree with the Obama administration are getting vilified.  Juan Williams, who is not anywhere close to being a conservative, is now getting it from the race baiters on the Left for the audacity for defending Rush against false and defaming accusations from those that wanted Rush out of the NFL.   And it is interesting now after the fact, all the facts about how many of these people that were most vocal are connected to the Obama administration.  And the Left was talking about how fascist Bush was,  do they even know what fascism is??????????  And it is amazing that at the same time the Players Union is trying to renegotiate their contract.
