Noel Sheppard uses an April 26 NewsBusters post to have a fit over MSNBC’s Martin Bashir pointing out that “the sort of comedy” that Rush Limbaugh enjoys “generally is sexist, homophobic, and racist.”
For all of his fulminating — the most he can muster is bashing MSNBC as “a channel that claims to be a news network” — Sheppard makes no effort whatsoever to disprove Bashir’s assertion. Perhaps that’s because he knows Bashir is right.
Racist? Check. Homophobic? Check. Sexist? And how!
If Sheppard couldn’t deny the truth of Bashir’s words, why is he attacking Bashir? Because he told the truth about Limbaugh, and Sheppard is apparently incapable of accepting the truth about his hero.
