Rush Limbaugh Defends Role in Arizona Shootings

This article from CNN talks about the role that Rush Limbaugh and Sarah Palin played in the shootings that occurred in Arizona. It can be said that because of their antagonistic words and aggressive stances during the heated election year that was 2010.

"[The media] is unnecessarily stirring up the country in ways that don't merit," Limbaugh said on his radio program Monday. "It's fatuous and silly to even verify and justify these accusations by defending them. The premise is insane, it's silly, it's beneath these people. Or is it? It is who they are."

I don't believe that they were entirely responsible for the shootings, but I do believe that the way that they handled their political agendas in 2010 played a crucial factor in determining the attitudes of many. Time will tell whether this will be a learning experience for these conservative media mavens.
