Limbaugh on O’Reilly
In Zev Chafets' biography of Rush Limbaugh, Rush mocks Bill O'Reilly as "Ted Baxter", the foolish blowhard anchorman from the old Mary Tyler Moore Show. I wish Chafets had asked what Rush thought of Glenn Beck.
Another reveal from the Chafets review:
When we met in March [2008], Bill O'Reilly still had a syndicated radio show that competed directly with Limbaugh in his afternoon time slot. I asked Rush what he thought of O'Reilly and, after a moment's reflection, he said, 'He's Ted Baxter. Sorry, but somebody's got to say it.' – p. 124.
Wish Chafets had asked what Rush thought of Glenn Beck. Tim Graham of NewsBusters alleges "jealousy" very easily. I wonder how he'd assess this?
