The same Randi Rhodes who claimed Palin likes to “sleep with teenage boys” and who was caught lying about being “mugged” in NYC to drum up publicity for her failing Air America show.
(Radio Equalizer) — If in need of further evidence that our Californian “progressive” friends have indeed lost their marbles, we direct you to today’s Exhibit A: a State Assembly proclamation honoring libtalker Randi Rhodes for “responsible journalism”.
Signed by Assemblyman Tony Mendoza (D-56), the public sector labor union-sponsored award doesn’t appear to specify any particular examples of excellence in reporting. Do we really need to point out that she’s actually a talk show host?
Here at the Radio Equalizer, of course, we were quickly able to recall a number of “responsible” on-air instances worthy of recognition (what KIND of honor, we don’t know):
A 2008 inference that Sarah Palin likes to sleep with teenage boys
Her airing of a “parody” skit suggesting Mitt Romney supporters would engage in mass murder if John McCain were to secure the 2008 GOP presidential nomination
Her claim that McCain was “well-treated” in Vietnam
A recent assertion that “Bush knew” where Osama bin Laden was hiding all along but allowed him to remain there
A claim she’d been “mugged” on a New York City street, which quickly fell apart under media scrutiny
An on-stage tirade where Randi called Hillary Clinton “a big f—ing whore”
And that’s just scratching the surface. Do our union/Dem friends really stand behind these kooky antics?
