LORD: Well, he\u2019s got 20 million listeners a week, Ryan.<\/p>\nRUSH: Last Thursday night Jeffrey Lord was on CNN talking with Ryan Lizza and others about me, new media, and sexism. Jeffrey was telling them that he was listening to me that day last week and that I was talking about how the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, are not the headliners of media today. That social media is where a lot of influential media is found. The axis actually is not New York-Boston anymore, but Silicon Valley in terms of social media. Here\u2019s Ryan Lizza responding.<\/p>\n
LIZZA: First of all, quoting Rush Limbaugh as some kind of, like, icon of modern media and what the kids are doing, is slightly ironic.<\/p>\n
LORD: Well, he\u2019s got 20 million listeners a week, Ryan.<\/p>\n
LIZZA: Yeah, but…<\/p>\n
LORD: You know, hello?<\/p>\n
LIZZA: Right. His audience…<\/p>\n
COOPER: It\u2019s not exactly — I mean, it\u2019s not a young demographic.<\/p>\n
LIZZA: He\u2019s not exactly Mark Zuckerberg, is what I\u2019m saying, okay?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Right. So these people, what happens here, we\u2019re old hat. You people are a bunch of old, decrepit people in walkers and wheelchairs about to be thrown over the cliff in a Democrat ad. And you don\u2019t have any clue what\u2019s going on here. They\u2019ve written this part off and this is what they do. They have no idea. They\u2019re supposed to be media people. They\u2019re supposed to be curious and knowledgeable of what\u2019s happening, and they\u2019ve written off half the country. And here\u2019s another little bite of Ryan Lizza that will help express this gulf that I\u2019m trying to explain.<\/p>\n
LIZZA: What the media is reacting to, Jeffrey, is not that Donald Trump is a master of new media and we\u2019re all jealous that he is so good at Twitter. What we\u2019re reacting to, Jeffrey, is literally the content of what he said, (crosstalk) a president who attacks women based on their looks and calls them crazy and uses these, like, old gendered stereotypes. That\u2019s what we\u2019re reacting to, Jeffrey.<\/p>\n

LORD: Are you telling me there\u2019s difference between calling a woman crazy and calling a man crazy, seriously?<\/p>\n
LIZZA: Yeah. One is a…<\/p>\n
LORD: Wow. Wow. That\u2019s sexist, don\u2019t you think, Ryan?<\/p>\n
RUSH: In these people\u2019s world you can call a guy crazy all day long because they\u2019ve been the oppressors all these years. Calling a woman crazy is sexist, misogynistic and offensive. They\u2019re victims, and you cannot be critical of them at all, you see.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: What really bothers these people… You just heard Ryan Lizza. Ryan Lizza, by the way, is the Washington correspondent for The New Yorker. Not to be confused with Chris Cillizza, who abandoned the Washington Post and went to CNN. I wonder if he\u2019s regretting that move, what with CNN becoming such a laughingstock now. (interruption) Well, the Washington Post not a laughingstock like CNN is. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
