    A Murderer's Bookshelf: Hannity, O'Reilly, and Savage On Killer's Reading List


    This morning I wrote (in "Monster") that Sean Hannity et al. might bear some share of moral responsibility for the killings in Knoxville. Sadly for everyone concerned, that may be true.

    This evening we learn from the Knoxville News that officers entering the home of murder Jim Adkisson "found Liberalism is a Mental Health Disorder by radio talk show host Michael Savage, Let Freedom Ring by talk show host Sean Hannity, and The O'Reilly Factor, by television talk show host Bill O'Reilly."

    If he actually those books, he was well steeped in hate and inflammatory slime.
    Wonder what was on L.H. Oswald's book shelves? Are those authors responsible?

    Damn, y'all really are against PERSONAL responsibility, aren't you? Those books, presumably, all sold a gazillion copies - how about all the people who DIDN'T shoot up any congregations?

    So you put conservative books on the same level as violent porn and gangsta rap.

    Sounds about right.

    I listen to very little talk radio anymore (when I say listen, I mean not humoring myself with how transparent the hosts are). It's filled with derision, anger, and double-talk. I've found holes in logic that are so big you could drive a truck through them, but call up the hosts and say anything, and they lambaste the caller and rip them down with personal diatribes. Honestly, just about any talk radio I've tried listening to just makes me sad.

    If someone could point out a moderate, reserved radio program that allows people to genuinely disagree with each other and make actual positions of discourse to operate from (as opposed to letting them speak 2-3 sentences and hanging up on them), I'd be all ears.

    Anyone? Please provide a podcast or link to the site/station.
    What did that have to do with "pot, meet kettle"?

    The word terra-ist gets thrown around so easy these days....unless your a Republican who shoots up churches....

    I'm sure Pelsoi will use this story for her fairness doctrine though.

    Who wants to censor the media? I personally love listening to Rush. I think he's hilarious. The only thing I can't decide is if he seriously believes the things he says, or just adds vehemence to make up for his own lack of conviction. The only thing that's disturbing about such media is that some people will believe anything that's spit into their face. Vomit on them, tell them it's cotton candy, and watch them scarf it down.
    lmfao! That pretty much sums up Obama's campaign plan doesn't it?

    Don't you geniuses realize people love conservative talk radio because it is the last place to have such discussion? TV news crap is saturated in left-wing agenda. They prey on the weak and ignorant. Talk radio provides discussion on topics these losers in the media will not even touch. It's so offensive to many libs because it is true. Not all of it, but a of a lot of it. Most of the talk show hosts don't even come close to talking about the REAL stuff that is going on, i.e. rush and hannity.

    Like my boy Savage says, the first amendment was created by our founding fathers to protect offensive speech. Polite speech need not be protected. Our founding fathers realized a day would come in this country when "Offensive" speech would need to be protected because one day the truth would be offensive.

    I really can't help but laugh at how "bubba" some of you guys think we are, when we in fact completely understand what is going on.

    At the end of the day, 99% don't shoot people up. This guy was a nutjob; seeing some of you use this to attack talk radio is humorous.

    You're trying to make Rush out to be a rook or a knight.

    Give it up. Pawns have to reach the 8th rank to get that kind of promotion, and Rush is completely off the freaking board most of the time.

    "on both sides of the political spectrum."

    Talk radio is dominated by right-wing slime, slanderous, racist, lying, inflammatory, angry, polarizing, divisive, hate radio. These people and their listeners are so jaded and bored by life in general that don't feel like they are alive unless they are masturbating to anger and hate towards everybody and everything outside of their group.

    "I'm mad as and I'm going to take it out on everybody forever."

    Please cite the left-wing hate and slime radio/tv talkers.
    Jesus, boutons. You should get a radio gig with that rant.

    Well Fox at least seems to be doing a good job of censoring itself regarding this story. I see no mention of the reading list on their site. Of course it might be in a video, I'm sure Fox's adherents will tell give me a link.
    Did Rupert Murdoch sleep with your mom and kicked you out of the house?

    Why are you so obsessed with Fox News?

    Why do you ignore the same tactics MSNBC uses?

    Did some dude who shot up a conservative church have Keith Olbermann's book at his house?

    Why are you so obsessed with me?

    Sorry dude. If it's any consolation, she wasn't that good.

    Looks like Pixel Pusher's people were the ones responsible for the shootings at the Colorado CHurch, Columbine, etc.. if we want to make this a Right vs Left atrcocities list.

    I think this is stupid. Rush Limbaugh never incites violence, neither does Sean Hannity.

    Porn incites sexual thoughts, Violent films incite violence, Rush and hannity colmes never tell their listeners to kill people much less hurt them.

    Nutjobs like PixelPusher and Chumpdumper just are tormented and emotionally damaged that they try to pin something terroristic like this on Rush Limbaugh.

    No but the Virginia Tech shooter had korean books at his house.

    I guess we go on and on.... but i'll leave that kind of talk to you since that's all you're known for.

    If you're not trying to push the idea about Rush and Hannity influencing this man to commit murder, why are you so upset about fox not releasing the reading list of the nutjob?

    It is your intention to try to pin this on Limbaugh even though you try to put up disclaimers claiming you're just having fun with all this. If it isn't then, you wouldn't care wether fox news puts up the killers reading list.

    But you're conflicted and confused, that's why the double talk, on your part.
