(interruption) You think it looks like Tom Brady? I thought it looked like Comey. He has a little different hairdo. If you can picture Comey in a hoodie and a sweatshirt, it looked like Comey to me. That\u2019s what I thought when I first looked. &#8220;James Comey accosted her in Las Vegas?&#8221; I guess was at a parking lot or something. (laughing)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, speaking of Brady, folks, I\u2019m gonna tell you: This is from the why people hate the media in the sports department. ESPN has a story that Tom Brady may not play this season. They don\u2019t have any sources in the story that say he\u2019s not gonna play. Somebody &#8212; the writer, I don\u2019t know who it is. Somebody says that he\u2019s heard Brady may not play because he hasn\u2019t said yet he\u2019s gonna play. There are two people sourced, &#8220;No, we haven\u2019t heard that. We think he\u2019s gonna play.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-230535 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/NFLBrady2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/NFLBrady2.jpg 336w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/NFLBrady2-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/NFLBrady2-300x300.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>They don\u2019t have anybody who said Brady isn\u2019t playing. They have two guys who think, &#8220;Well, I heard he isn\u2019t gonna play.&#8221; And the story is, &#8220;Brady may not play in 2018!&#8221; How do you get there? This is exactly what happens. They come up with a story, a narrative, and then they build it. So if somebody says, &#8220;You know, we need to run a story that Brady may not play because Brady hasn\u2019t said he\u2019s gonna play.&#8221; &#8220;Ooooh, perfect! Okay, we\u2019ll do a story Brady may not play,&#8221; and then they start running around asking people.<\/p>\n<p>They can\u2019t find anybody who\u2019s heard that. They instead find people who said, &#8220;I don\u2019t know. I haven\u2019t heard that.&#8221; So they start with a premise that\u2019s erroneous, and then they\u2019ve got their sources that disagree with it (laughing) and then they run a news story! If it is Brady in the sketch, in Stormy\u2019s sketch, you could understand him maybe not wanting to play.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: This is from the why people hate the media in the sports department. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":271454,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
