Yet it seems to me it is always people who are not conservatives who have this attitude. I have an unbelievable audio sound bite. Recently Chris Matthews had on Erin Burnett, known on CNBC as the Street Sweetie. Now, we on this program aired a couple of audio sound bites from the Street Sweetie praising her journalistic credentials and work in various analyses of the economy. It\u2019s always been extremely professional. We have not remarked on her appearance. We have not objectified her in any way. We have treated her here as a consummate, or, as the NBC style manual used require you to say, consummate, professional. Did you know that, Mr. Snerdley, way, way back in the old days, NBC radio days, they had a stylebook, and you were required to pronounce it consummate, as opposed to consummate. It works either way. Regardless, we have treated her as a consummate professional. We haven\u2019t even been reduced to calling her an info babe, and we do that affectionately anyway on this program. But I want you to listen. She\u2019s doing a report on the stock market on Friday night for Chris Matthews on Hardball, and they have this exchange.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.89380.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"234\" height=\"168\" class=\"alignleft\"\/>MATTHEWS: Can you get a little closer to the camera?<\/p>\n<p>BURNETT: What, is it zooming in strangely?<\/p>\n<p>MATTHEWS: Come in further. Come in closer, really close.<\/p>\n<p>BURNETT: What are you &#8212; what are you &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>MATTHEWS: Ha-ha, just kidding! You look great. Anyway, thanks. Erin, it\u2019s great to have &#8212; look at that look. You\u2019re great.<\/p>\n<p>BURNETT: I don\u2019t even know &#8212; I\u2019m gonna have to go look at the tape. I\u2019m in a strange location.<\/p>\n<p>MATTHEWS: Just kidding. You\u2019re a knockout.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/wp-content\/uploads\/01125111.Par.4584.ImageFile.jpg\" width=\"179\" height=\"180\" class=\"alignright\"\/>RUSH: I guess she\u2019d finished the report and he said just move closer, I want to get a closer look at you, you\u2019re a knockout, and she has no clue. She thinks that something is wrong with the camera shot or camera angle so she\u2019s trying to fix it because she is a consummate professional. I mean, who\u2019s doing the objectifying here? What does this remind you of? Could it be this that happened December 20th, 2003, on ESPN during a televised football game between the New England Patriots and the New York Jets?<\/p>\n<p>NAMATH: I want to kiss you. I couldn\u2019t care less about the team struggling. What we know is we can improve. Chad &#8212; Chad Pennington, our quarterback, missed the first part of the season, and we struggled. We\u2019re looking to next season. We\u2019re looking to next season, we\u2019re looking to make noise now, and I want to kiss you.<\/p>\n<p>KOLBER: Thanks, Joe. I\u2019ll take that as a huge compliment.<\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Suzy Kolber there, the sideline reporter for ESPN, interviewing Joe Namath. So Matthews had his Joe Namath moment. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: You know, ladies and gentlemen, it\u2019s often said that conservatives like me are sexists and have an objectifying view of women, that we see them as lesser in some way.
