EXCLUSIVE: Oops! Wikipedia Pronounced Rush Limbaugh Dead
Posted on Dec 31, 2009 @ 10:53AM
Looks like the folks at Wikipedia were prepared for the worst when it came to Rush Limbaugh. Actually they were a little too well prepared.
Shortly after the news broke that the conservative political radio talk show host was hospitalized, Wikipedia updated his page – and pronounced him dead.
Folks (like us) who happened to take a look at Limbaugh’s biography, saw this:
Rush Hudson Limbaugh III (pronounced /ˈlɪmbɔː/;born January 12, 1951, died December 30, 2009) is an American radio host and conservative political commentator. He is the host of The Rush Limbaugh Show, the highest-rated talk-radio program in the United States. It airs throughout the U.S. on Premiere Radio Networks.
That was posted shortly after midnight, EST.
Rush, of course, was very much alive and about 15 minutes later Wikipedia pronounced him so, altering their bio by removing the information that he had died.
Limbaugh remains hospitalized Thurday.

inhahe, we know EXACTLY how Liberalpedia works, and that's how the wishful thinking of Rush's "death" got on there.
Google for "wikipedia global warming edits" - over 5000 articles have been sanitized by the Global Warmists on the left...

Anyway, the author of this article obviously has no idea how Wikipedia works, which shows shocking ignorance. But maybe it's no coincidence that he or she is probably a Rush Limbaugh fan.

Sorry, but Wiki was outed long ago...check out WHO runs the site and then come back and spell ignorant again.

Jesus Christ! I can't even formulate an intelligent response to this article due to being limited to 250 characters. That's ridiculous! It's akin to a Twitter post. *Why* would anyone do this, except to deliberately dumb down their audience...!?

Great language...and you fail to explain why such an article would so upset you. Go back to Kos!

See, I just don't get it. Why do people feel hatred for Rush? They don't have to listen to him. The same who hate Rush listen to Bill Maher's every word. The man who compared Down Syndrome to dogs.

Rush will enjoy this, thoroughly enjoy this. Wiki is a biased, leftist moonbat site and Rush knows it.

No information is better than bad information. Glad to see Rush alive and well. Lib's should listen to Rush and attempt to learn something!

Limbaugh is obese and ready to keel over from a heart attack. However, if he did, it would not be such a big loss; in fact, it might even be an improvement in the radio waves.
