Why do Republicans support Rush Limbaugh???

RE: Why do Republicans support Rush Limbaugh???
While pretty much all American news sources have some amount of bias, what sets Faux News apart from the rest is that they place political allegiance ahead of journalistic integrity. They've been caught lieing on multiple occasions, other times twisting the facts to support republican talking points or conveniently failing to mention facts that directly contradict republican policy. MSNBC, CNN and most other news sources are more than willing to let you know when Obama is wrong, but through 8 yeard of the Dubya regime, the only time they criticized him was just before the 2008 election when the GOP was doing everything in their power to distance themselves from a toxic name. The left, on the other hand, has been extremely critical of Obama.

It's also worth noting, I've actually seen one followers of one Republican biased news source call another Republican biased news source 'liberal' because they aren't conservative enough. Oklahoma has two major newspapers: The Tulsa World and The Daily Oklahoman. Both are pretty conservative; both supported Bush in both elections and McCain and Romney. The big difference is, in local elections, the Tulsa World sometimes supports democrats for mayor, congressional elections or for state rep seats. The Oklahoman is always straight ticket republican. And for that, the editorials page for the Oklahoman is often filled with letters complaining about that 'liberal' Tulsa World.
