HuffPo, Rick Sanchez retract phony Limbaugh quotes
posted at 9:28 pm on October 15, 2009 by Allahpundit
No harm in admitting the lie now that his NFL bid’s dead. First, via the Standard, comes this belated HuffPo postscript to a post that’s three years old:
Editor’s Note: An earlier version of this post contained quotes attributed to Rush Limbaugh, which Limbaugh has since denied making. As is our policy when a fact in a blog post is called into question, we gave its author 24 hours to substantiate the quote. Since he has not been able to do so, the quotes have been deleted from the post.
And now here’s Sanchez, kinda sorta apologizing — on Twitter — for airing the bogus slavery quote on his show earlier this week:
i’ve know rush. in person,i like him. his rhetoric,however is inexcusably divisive. he’s right tho. we didn’t confirm quote. our bad.
Proof that Limbaugh’s threat to sue people over this is being taken seriously? Eh, I doubt it. As I said before, it’s really hard for a public figure to prove defamation. He’d basically have to show that his accusers knew the quote was false and published it anyway; both HuffPo and Sanchez would reply that they didn’t know and were merely lazy, sloppy, negligent reporters in relying on published sources for a quote that they hadn’t fact-checked. The retractions, I suspect, are motivated less by fear of being sued than as a lame nod to journalistic ethics. “See, we correct our highly incendiary errors. …Eventually.”
Meanwhile, it’s safe to say that the Journal’s solved the mystery of why Olbermann, of all people, came to Rush’s defense a few days ago:
What happened here, and is happening elsewhere in American life, is that Mr. Limbaugh’s outspoken political conservatism is being deemed sufficient reason to ostracize him from polite society. By contrast, MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann, who fires off his own brand of high-velocity, left-wing political commentary but lacks Mr. Limbaugh’s sense of humor, appears weekly as co-host of NBC’s “Football Night in America.” We haven’t heard anyone on the right say Mr. Olbermann’s nightly ad-hominem rants should disqualify him from hanging around the NFL. Al Franken made it all the way to the U.S. Senate on a river of political vitriol…
It is no secret that this country’s politics has become intense across the ideological spectrum. Rush Limbaugh lets his listeners blow off steam and then get on with the rest of their day. But if the people who claim to worry about such things want to see a truly angry right develop in this country, they should continue to remain silent while the left tries to drive Rush Limbaugh and others out of American political life. If that happens, the NFL by comparison will look like an afternoon tea.
You would be hearing complaints about Olby now if he’d joined the chorus against Limbaugh, but Kayo was one step ahead of the game this time. Is Soros?

Where’s Charles Johnson’s retraction? He was VERY ANGRY about this “racism from Rush” indeed.
Anytime you’re ready, Charles. We’re waiting.

Apparently this is acceptable journalistic behavior these days. If only Dan Rather knew how to use twitter, he may still have his job.

Re: OK, so prove you didn’t say it
BOGUS-QUOTES SOURCE
As I am sure you are aware, the fake Limbaugh quotes have been traced to the Rush Limbaugh Wikiquote page, dating from July of 2005 (see the following link to see when the quotes were added). The Jack Huberman book that most people source for these quotes did not come out until the following year.
The quotes were added by a user with the IP address of 69.64.213.146. This address has been used mostly to make changes to the article about Rush, but also Karl Rove, Sean Hannity, Rush, James Dobson and Sara Palin from 2005 until earlier this year.
While others have noted this in various forums, no one seems to have made the connection that this IP address is used as a gateway by the law firm Patterson Belknap Webb & Tyler LLP (see here, for example) that all users from that IP address come from the pbwt.com domain.)
Given the likelihood that Limbaugh will sue over this, I find it interesting that the source of these bogus quotes is probably a lawyer…

Yeah, but Ace considers his blog to be more of a hangout for him and his friends than anything else, I think. He calls it ‘our place’. HotAir has a different reputation it needs to maintain, partly because its owner is regularly booked on national tv shows and is a best selling author. Allowing your commenters to get into blog wars isn’t really conducive to that.
Ace’s commenters posted hundreds of absolutely awful and equally hilarious things about CJ yesterday, and he won’t touch them, because they don’t care, and CJ knows it.

If Rush comes forth as a plaintiff the burden of proof is his. If he can show, with reasonable probability that wikipedia ?!?! was the source for these “journalist” smears? Case closed. Rush wins.
No compromise. Take it to a jury and plead for a judgment against the perpetrators of this libel and slander, their enablers, employers, funders, agents, heirs and assigns, and on top of that, demand punitive damages. More cake: Bring in Sharpton and that other clown, Jesse Jackson. He can single handedly deplete their riches and donate all to charity. Sweet!

Flag the stories over the past week, and remember who used the quotes and then apologized, because the odds are if another Limbaugh controversy comes up a couple of years from now, the same people, the same websites and the same news channels will be trotting out the same bogus quotes, as if today’s retractions never happened.

daesleeper on October 15, 2009 at 10:54 PM
As we all know.
Liberals don’t care whether they have to lie,steal,cheat,or commit any kind of corrupt action to push their agenda.
The “ends” justifies the “means”.
They feel that they are so righteous in their ways that any lie or act of malice they commit is okay because it furthers their faux superior ideology.
Liberals know that the Micheal Moore’s and Keith Olberman’s are pompous,self-righteous liars and propagandist but it does not matter,they help demonize their opponents which helps them win elections.
They push the entertainment industry like SNL,sitcoms,and movies to humiliate their political opponents and set up shows that portray conservative policies and leaders as evil,criminal bigots that only care about money and power.
They know that this is so important to their success that they had a hissy fit and fact checked an SNL skit to lessen the blow that it might inflict on making Obama look weak and inept.
Could you imagine the air time that would have been used up exposing all the lies and distortions of Moore’s 9/11 movie.
Instead they called it a “documentary” and gave him an oscar.
Bashing Bush and the Iraq war pretty much became a prerequisite of winning an emmy or an oscar over the last few years.
The liberal leaders on the Hill continually make slanderous accusations against their opponents combined with blatantly false statments concerning their legislation that they depend on the MSM to push and cover for them.
Obama’s lies being exposed by Republicans concerning his health care bill contributing to the deficit,dropping legislation concerning the “death panals”(Palin exposed that) and “coverage for illegals (Wilson’s “liar” exposed that) are just some of the examples of how liberals operate and depend on the press to cover for them.
We know many liberals are jumping for joy concerning the fact that they used lies and smears to deliver a hit to Rush.
But remember, these are also the same people who danced for victory on the graves of 3 million people slaughtered when we left Vietnam “giving peace a chance” and fought like he!! to defend Saddam Hussein and allow genocide in Iraq just so they could further their liberal agenda.
How progressive!!!!!!!!

njpat on October 15, 2009 at 11:30 PM
Haven’t read all the comments, and this point has probably already been made. But of course they knew it was false. Had he made those statements, we all know Media Matters would have immediately circulated the tapes. NBC, ABC, and CBS would have led their nightly broadcasts with the story, and MSNBC and CNN would still be milking it. There’s no way it would have escaped notice.
He should sue. If nothing else, it would be highly entertaining to have hacks like Sanchez effectively admit on the record that they work for networks that don’t care if their “reporters” actually fact check their stories.

I’m not bitter though, Charles was always nice to me. He’s right about not allowing racists to ally themselves with you though he’s wrong to think that Rush is a racist. It’s satire when Rush gets into that voice of his, like The Onion only funnier and with a bigger audience. You can call it race-baiting but, I don’t think so. The hatred of Rush over there is intense, Huffington Post comment thread levels though I’m sure Charles makes sure no one gets away with death threats.

Really? You found a Wikiquote in which “Rush” condemns interracial marriages? Wow!
ddrintn on October 15, 2009 at 11:58 PM
A final observation, perhaps too obvious to require saying: It’s no coincidence that Democratic Party outlets like CNN had to dredge up fake quotes to make their case. Nothing Rush actually said would do the trick, even though he’s been on the radio three hours a day, five days a week, for more than twenty years. That really tells you all you need to know.
ONE LAST UPDATE: It is worth noting, as a kind of macabre footnote, that CNN found it worthwhile to “fact check” Saturday Night Live when that program had the temerity to ridicule CNN’s President, The One. Maybe CNN could become a respected news organization if it tried to fact check news stories as well as comedy skits, starting with–is this too much to ask?–its own broadcasts.

Blake on October 16, 2009 at 12:08 AM
Well: as I wrote last night, it is ironic that Keith Olbermann, who, unlike Rush, is actually a hatemonger, is a network commentator on NFL games. Apparently no one thinks Olbermann is too “divisive” to be associated with the league.
Which raises this thought: has any liberal ever been labeled “divisive”? I can’t recall a single instance. President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid are trying to dismantle our health care system, an effort to which most Americans object and about which many millions care deeply. So, why are they not divisive? If that isn’t divisive, what is?
These thoughts are prompted by Olbermann’s latest outrage: another attack on Michelle Malkin, in which he accused Michelle of being a “fascist” and described her as “a big mashed-up bag of meat with lipstick on it.” It is impossible to imagine a conservative with a network television contract using language like that about a liberal woman. Impossible. It is, to begin with, misogynistic; it’s also aesthetically ridiculous. Agree with her or not, Michelle is a beautiful woman. One can only wonder what kind of twisted, sick psyche could produce this sort of venom. (Michelle writes about Olbermann’s bizarre outburst here.)
But let’s apply a much lower threshold: by what conceivable standard is Keith Olbermann not a divisive figure? It would be impossible to be more intensely partisan or to be more vicious toward those with whom he disagrees. How can that not be considered divisive, by the NFL’s standards?
The only answer is that “divisive” is a criticism that applies only to conservatives. It is not possible for a liberal to be “divisive,” however crazed he or she may be. This is true even though the whole point of a political system is to decide issues about which people disagree. If people don’t disagree, it isn’t a political issue. So to argue for any political point of view is necessarily divisive. But divisiveness is a one-way street. When liberals express liberal views, that’s just being a patriotic American. When conservatives express conservative views, it’s “divisive.”
That is, sadly, how much of our country’s establishment thinks

The thing is, he’s either a “lying creep” or someone who thinks everyone who disagrees with him is a racist. Probably not both.
I just think he’s wrong and is pushing his own agenda. At the moment Charles blog displays a left of center bias, not extreme left but, left none the less. When I wrote that he was a moderate conservative, in my viewpoint, he was one. lgfwatchwatch is a now defunct watchdog site for the stalker/ultra-left hate-site lgfwatch. I do not “showcase” Charles’ war against HA, the blog simply shows whenever either this website or LGF make a new post. LGF and HA are no longer affiliated and so this has produced some quite odd results.
I don’t believe Charles is a liar, just somewhat over-sensitive and perhaps a little bitter. As for his lizards, they seem to have come down with an awful case of schadenfreude. It’s as hostile in those threads towards even mild conservatives now as it was towards jihad-defenders in the early 2000s.
So Blake, banned LGF lizard, please don’t take out your anger on me. It’s simply out of context.

He should still sue.
Tim Burton on October 16, 2009 at 12:38 AM
I didn’t hear any indication from Rush today that he’s planning on suing anyone. (And maybe that’s because of the Sullivan standard. Too difficult to prove malice.) But I hope he will get back at these pieces of excrement, somehow. He really just can’t let this stand. I can’t wait to see what he’s going to do.

I just heard that the national Republican party is backing some liberal woman for an open seat in NY state. She supports card check and she’s endorsed by acorn. How arrogant and stupid this party is.

Actually, he is the more sane of the two that represent Orlando if you can believe it. Meet MY representative (that runs unopposed every year). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KgbBP9Em00A

Nothing new under the sun insofar as rumor mills go. No different from how Jayson Blair played the New York Times. He merely made up things his editors wanted to believe were true. And those editors kept believing and believing and believing until Jayson Blair was shown to have made it all up.
The grapevine says the ISP originating the Limbaugh smear posted at Wiki originated at a New York law firm. Though I think he’s based in DC I’ve wondered what creepy Clintoon damage control pettifogger Vernon Jordan has been up to lately. Who knows?

Yes,he can be both. You’re opinion is biased. The fact that you have been one of the mob over there tells me you have no judgement, no ethics, and no spine.
B.S. You wrote that 4/24/09. He was no such thing and the purges had already long begun.
No, you’re a stalker of anyone who disagrees with the racist hate site LGF. Ace had you people pegged: You’re like North Korea over there. The only thing that has changed is that you’ve been banned.
Liar. Since the attacks are coming fast and furious from the whackjob, then you do showcase his war on HA.
He’s a disgusting and blatant liar. You need to be deprogrammed. It’s hostile to anybody who expresses a different view no matter how slight. You were no better in that you tolerated it.
It’s not out of context at all. You crapped all over HA. You were part of the mob who crapped all over HA on the nutsite. And now you are here looking for sympathy.
Blake on October 16, 2009 at 12:47 AM
Oh, I’m not the banned one, you are. I stopped posting on that hate psycho site 3 or 4 years ago.
Blake on October 16, 2009 at 12:53 AM
Blake, you’re just trying too hard to get on the next HA Comments of the day thread. It’s embarrassing.
Now, I’m not going to argue with you point-by-point. Instead I’m going to say a few things and let you hash it out in your own head.
Lying implies knowingly providing false information. If you’re wrong and provide information based on your own ignorance it is not a lie.
I posted sporadically, even at the time when I created lgfwatchwatch. I still can’t get over the fact that you don’t think the name is at least funny.
There is a difference, however slight, between stalking and watchdogging. I am unable to see myself as a stalker, liar or programmed repeater. I have never “crapped” on HA nor do I understand why you would make an assertion without even the presumption of evidence.
A statement made about someone, especially a biased and emotional one, when not even given a rudimentary fact-check is tantamount to lying. I’m not a liar.
I could be dumb, ignorant or crazy. I’d like to be right.

Did the Canadian conservative party parliament member come in here posting more slander a bit ago?
Rywall, lol

After portraying all tea partiers and pro-lifers as racists who want to kill Obama, Sanchez has no room to talk about divisive rhetoric.
Ryan Gandy on October 16, 2009 at 1:12 AM
No, you’re trying hard to get unbanned by the lying racist. You’re embarrassing.
You can’t. You have no arguments. Just your lame justifications for being an idiot. Hash that out in your head, you patronizing creep.
Dumbass, just because you say you or others are not lying but ignorant, doesn’t make it so.
But there are enough posts of yours around the internet sliming others and defending your master’s creepy behavior. And, no, not funny, and not clever. You and others remind me of one of those creepy people Stalin sent out to eliminate all his critics.
Because it’s true. And when did you ever become concerned with proof for anything? All CJ does is make accusations without proof and you had no problems with it. You’re such a hypocrite.
You’re a liar.
Blake on October 16, 2009 at 1:18 AM
Hey, that sounds like you and your pals, DeathtotheSwiss!
Blake on October 16, 2009 at 1:21 AM
Blake, no evidence? None? Okay, thought so.
I’m surprised that someone as severely unhinged as you couldn’t provide a scholarly rebuttal to my comments.
I have never hated on tea-parties, HA and I don’t want to go back to LGF (I didn’t know unban was even an option). I’d just get banned again if I was willing to deal with the environment.
You’re a truly hateful person. I am not a liar. You’d prove me wrong if you could. You can’t. I am not a liar.
