David Limbaugh: "Actual Malice"

David Limbaugh writes on the past week's smear campaign against his brother Rush.

The entire column is worth reading. One of several good points made by David is that this faux scandal is, in part, about attempting to discredit those in talk radio as an excuse to bring back the Fairness Doctrine.

David's final point:

"...it is important separately to point out that many in the accusers' camp, like Senators Harry Reid and John Kerry and Congressman John Murtha, have unambiguously impugned, undermined or demoralized our soldiers...

"Now they willfully impute military-slandering words to a man who has no superior in championing our military. How much more obvious can they be in revealing their anti-military mindset?

"If they were capable of exhibiting shame or contrition I'd demand an apology from all of them. But they're not sorry. They have perpetrated this phony scandal against my brother with actual malice. The ones behind the slander know they are lying; those merely echoing their words without bothering to investigate the facts are acting in reckless disregard for the truth."
