n her blogpost at Big Journalism today, Dana Loesch baselessly accused Media Matters For America’s Senior Fellow Eric Boehlert of getting the dates wrong for Détente’s song, Kill Rush.
It was in response to my piece published last night on the media’s choice to ignore the death threats against Rush Limbaugh by way of progressives’s newest anthem, “Kill Rush.”Boehlert was too quick to spin without actually checking the facts.
What’s that date? March 6? Considering Facebook doesn’t post the current year date, it’s March 6 of this year, meaning just a couple of weeks ago.
Eric was wrong on two counts: the song was posted to Youtube in 2011, NOT in 2010. Also, did you see that at the bottom?
They went back and tagged “Sandra Fluke” on their video. Boehlert’s spin is that the video was posted in 2010 (it wasn’t) and that it isn’t in response to Limbaugh (they made it so).The song was originally recorded in 2010, not 2011 or later. Yet another pathetic example of Boehlert Derangement Syndrome displayed by Loesch.
poor @dloesch, can’t even get simple “2010” dates correct; bit.ly/GJwCHU #conservativejournalism #chronicallyconfused
