If anyone is still listening to the one man who spreads more hatred and misleading tales than anyone else in our nation, I feel sorry for them. They must have lost most of their IQ points. Rush Limbaugh is tied for the most divisive person in America; he has a twin sister in Ann Coulter. He tells lies and spews venom directed at progressives and anyone else who does not agree with him. He is so far right, he’s wrong.

His latest mistake was talking about another subject about which he is completely wrong. Limbaugh is claiming that the media is treating Hillary Clinton differently than everyone else because most of the journalists covering the Democratic front runner are themselves women, and that women are becoming the dominant force in journalism.

While it is true that currently there are more women reporters on the campaign trail with Hillary Clinton than men, men continue to dominate the profession. Approximately 62 percent of journalists are men. Columnists in 10 major newspapers numbered 22 and only six of them were women.

The most important fact of this article is not that Limbaugh has his facts all wrong, it is my questioning why anyone continues to listen to this blowhard.

Does anyone else really care which sex dominates any profession in America. Equal opportunity is what should be discussed. Men continue to control most professions, not because they are more qualified, but simply because women are not given a chance to acquire certain positions in several industries and are denied equal pay when they do receive a position formerly held by a male counterpart.

Rush; your misogyny is showing again.
