As I learned from Tom Tomorrow, last night MSNBC loudmouth Joe Scarborough was trying to criticize Joe Conason — whose new book you should definitely pick up — but I think he missed his target.
Scarborough exlpained, “Conason said, quote, ‘I just want people to pay attention and ask questions and not accept what I call conventional idiocy on TV and radio.’ Conventional idiocy? So why is it that more people listen to Rush Limbaugh than anybody else in radio history? All I’ve got to say is, there are a lot of idiots out there.”
Truer words were never spoken.
