Coulter, O’Reilly et al are, i think, more obsessed by the money they make than in convincing people or winning arguments with the general public.

Every time they raise a hullabaloo over some outrageous statement it increases what they get and how often they get it, from fees, endorsements, appearances, whatever. They were struggling on the bottom rung. Now they’re multi-millionaires and getting richer. The more outrageous things they say, the bigger their value. And their fringe nuts adore them.

Look at the power. Limburger got caught in a serious dope deal. Huge quantities. Lots of possible charges. Process but no jail time like you or i would get.

Be interesting to read an analysis of the process of that case. O’Reilly was caught trying to get blowjobs from the women in his office. The case collapsed — he paid off, i guess. If it had been a liberal commentator we’d still be hearing screaming about it.

Money, power that goes with money and with sycophantic audiences increases with publicity and the way they get publicity is any outrageous statements. It’s like an endless chain.
