Sheriff Dupnik is Right: Radio Lies, Our Culture Dies


…It isn't just the vitriol spewing from Savage and Hannity and Boortz and others, it is what is behind the vitriol: a genuine fear born of propaganda. And as a culture, we the people are buying into it.

So, regardless of whether the alleged shooter Jared Lee Loughner actually listened to any of the six "Conservative" stations on the dial in Tucson, Pima County Sheriff Clarence Dupnik was correct when he blamed the attack on a cultural environment built of Talk Radio...

1. CORRECT

essentially, rightwing asshats stole my country and I WANT HER BACK

[BradBlog]

2. If they hadn't stolen your airwaves, they wouldn't have been able to 'steal' country. (nt)

4. I guess what really disturbs me

is how EASILY they were able to do it - repuke propaganda isn't even GOOD propaganda - it's just fucking nonsense yet I know highly educated and/or intelligent people who fall for it :o

[BradBlog]

9. That's how it works....

When you hear the same thing repeated over and over and over again from multiple (RW) sources, and hear no counter argument, it's very easy to believe those things, even as they are complete and utter bullshit.

12. question for you BradBlog

why don't we fall for it?

8. I'm reminded of the day...

You asked us what you should talk about on the radio... I think you were subbing for Malloy? Do I remember that correctly? Anyway, I asked that you talk about the media's lies... and why it is that they are allowed to lie.

It was a great show:)

I said it before (a gazillion times) and I'll say it again. We need to take back the media/press! It was a very important job when our country first came to be. So important, it had its own little piece of the Constitution!

We will never be able to have a civilized society, to have a well-run government, or to have faith that we actually know what's going on in our world until we do. The InterTubes are fairly tainted too... I'm about ready to start pamphleteering!

6. Brad the Sheriff is spot on

Brad,

The Sheriff is spot on and that is why the right wing hate talkers are screaming because they know he is right
and he has credibility too. In 2008 Fox News and Sean Hannity ran a totally bogus story about voter fraud, ACORN,
and Ohio's Sec. of State Jennifer Brunner. Not an once of truth to the meme they were pushing but Jenny Brunner
got death threats and had to change her lifestyle because of those threats. In Kentucky in 2010 the person who
held the women down so she could be stomped by a Rand Paul supporter was a tea party member and a proud
supporter and member of Glenn Beck's 9/12 project. Night after night Glenn Beck talked about America being under
attack by liberals and socialists who want to bring the country down aka we have to stand up and fight for America
like real patriots against these "less then good people." So, it was an easy step for the mouthbreathers to go on the
attack after hearing such hate talk from Mr. Beck.

The Sheriff calling out these hate talkers is just like when Joe Welch said to Joe McCarthy, "Have you no sense of decency, sir?
At long last, have you left no sense of decency?" ... Dupnik is an American hero.

10. Nothing to add. You are, of course, 100% right on the money. (nt)
