As someone who has been consistently critical of Rush Limbaugh’s brand of conservatism, I nevertheless agree with former Reason intern (and current editor at the Washington City Paper) Mike Riggs: quite a few media hacks owe the right-wing talker a serious apology.
I think there may be some libel exposure here, too. You have to try hard to libel a public figure, but relying on unsourced — and “self-evidently phony” — wikiquotes without doing any checking just might count as reckless disregard. . . .
