Rush Limbaugh
While it seems celebs hardly work for their money, their pre-fame resumes tell dramatically different stories: rife with tales of cleaning toilets, delivering beer and asking sweetly, "Would you like fries with that?"
Turns out that America's most glamorous hotshots held down all kinds of...
Thanks to PolitiFact.com, the Pulitzer Prize-winning website, it's possible to see which political pundits are sticking to the truth and which are making it up. George Will gets high marks; Glenn Beck, not so much.
The other night I was sharing -- okay, whining -- about yet another long and possibly futile day spent writing a spec project that may or may not sell when my partner asked:

Glenn Beck Loses an Advertiser, but He's Not Going Anywhere
8:00AM 7/23/2010
"Everyone should have Glenn Beck's problems," says one observer. With top ratings in his TV time slot, a combined radio and TV audience of more than 9 million and an estimated net worth of $22 million, losing a few advertisers isn't fatal.
Limbaugh sells NYC condo for $11.5 million
12:00PM 7/13/2010
Being a man good to his word, conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh is leaving New York with its relatively high taxes on rich people.

Nothing else explains why Maynard L. Jenkins, former chief executive of auto-parts retailer CSK...
With America's Free Speech rights, libel and defamation cases are hard to win, particularly when the comments' target is a public figure. Nonetheless, it seems Rush Limbaugh may have gone far enough in his attacks on President Obama to meet the tough American standards.
During his address Wednesday night, look for President Obama to focus on solutions for problem No. 1: The lack of jobs. Employment growth will determine not just the economy's fate, but also that of the Democratic majorities in Congress -- and possibly of Obama's presidency.
Is Rush Limbaugh trying to play ball without a helmet?
6:00PM 10/07/2009
Rush Limbaugh may be racing onto the gridiron without a helmet. The right-wing talk-show host is bidding to buy the NFL's St. Louis Rams with Dave Checketts, chairman of the NHL's St. Louis Blues. The team is one of the weakest franchises in professional football; Forbes ranks its value at $913...
For journalists in a slow news cycle, the impulse to sort, rank, and list people, places, and things comes as naturally as breathing.
