Who is the next most influential RW blowhard aside from Rush Limbaugh?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

Is it Hannity? O'Reilly? I've always assumed it's one of these two... would we credit Drudge, just because of the influence of his site?

[Rick Myers]

1. Between the two...

O'Lielley is too high profile, while Sean Insanity slips under the radar alot of times.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

2. dick cheney

the way he manages to gather money people and take away millions each week, and the way he manages to control the message, he is far more important than orarely, inHannity or their ilk.

4. I'm talking RW media machine here, and I wouldn't include "official"

members of shrubco including Rove, even though they are part of a seamless whole. If we were to include shrubco members I think it'd be Rove, easily.

[dogman]

3. I think O'Liely

I'm amazed at how many people in day to day bs sessions use him as a source.

[dorkulon]

7. Agreed.

With Wolf Blitzer as a second.

[IsItJustMe]

8. I agree: You even have Dems who watch him to see what the enemy is up to.

[Canuckistanian]

5. As far as blowhards go, you can't beat O'Lielly

Although.....

[11 Bravo]

6. My guess would be Hannity, but ...

the batshit crazy Michael Savage has a frightening number of listeners.

[blm]

9. INFLUENTIAL being the keyword, I'll say Tim Russert.

Then Chris Matthews. Because people in DC listen to them and they set the tone for what the DC media picks up on.

10. Nah I'm thinking one of the true "out" RW blowhards that your RW blowhard

acquaintances would identify as being one of "their guys". I don't think MTP or Softball would qualify despite clear RW bias.

[blm]

13. Heh....blowhards in the ear of the beholder.

But, on the lower level criteria, I would have to say James Dobson. He actually influences people.

[dogman]

12. RW also being a keyword, I'm not sure they fit.

I don't believe they are RW, I think they're just whores who are role playing for the money.

[Swamp Rat]

11. "I ONLY listen to Bill O'Reilly because he is the only one who tells the

truth!" - Said 4 years ago by a 'moran' I know. :eyes:

[dorkulon]

14. Nice pic, here's another

[Swamp Rat]

16. LOL!

:rofl:

[flakey_foont]

17. Good one

[Poppyseedman]

15. BOR

Hands down. He has the most watched show in the evening cable news.

The man makes me want to wretch and I can eat nails for food.

[Toots]

18. Paul Harvey the Horse fucker

Many people really believe Paul Harvey is non partisan and that is what makes him so worrisome. Now for the rest of the story...

[Just Me]

19. The ultimate RW asshole, KKKarl Rover. Also, let's not forget Colder. nt
