The owner of this paper hopes Limbaugh Gets Cancer and Dies. Another glaring example of the double standard at work. This man will not be subject to any media scrutiny. He should become the recipient of freepers' emails, however, at the Niagara Falls Reporter: snakebite13@sysr.com

Maybe not, but he is still subject to the Universal Law of having things come back to you in ways you never expect.

IOW, what goes around, comes around.

Newspaper Owner: Rush Limbaugh Should Get Cancer and Die

The owner of an upstate New York newspaper told a reader this week that he hoped conservative talk radio megastar Rush Limbaugh would get cancer and die, adding Sunday that he would publish his Limbaugh death wish in an upcoming edition.

The comments from Mike Hudson, owner of the Niagara Falls Reporter, first came to light after the reader contacted WABC Radio's Steve Malzberg and shared Hudson's email response to a complaint about a column by another writer.

In his vitriolic reply, Hudson reportedly wrote, "I hope that [Limbaugh] gets over his addiction and dies from cancer of the testicles."

Interviewed by Malzberg on Sunday, Hudson said he was merely showing the same compassion for Limbaugh that the conservative talk host had demonstrated in the wake of the deaths of drug addled rock stars Kurt Cobain and Jerry Garcia.

But when Malzberg pressed him for examples of where Limbaugh had actually wished anyone dead, Hudson came up empty.

Asked if he would ever publish an editorial wishing Limbaugh dead, Hudson told Malzberg, "Certainly next week this is going to be a major story in my newspaper and, of course, the email [wishing Limbaugh dead] will be printed in full."

What a nutcase. First of all, cancer of the testicles rarely strikes men Rush's age, and even if it did, it is one of the most curable cancers to have.

It's not the "same"....Rush may have criticized those guys for their reckless lifestyles, but he never expressed a hope that anyone should die.

When you see a left winger who is this open with their vile hatred, a question comes to mind about their health status.

Does this person have HIV/AIDs due to his life style? Is that the reason he is vile and bitter?

So true, if you need further proof of this theory just ask John Henry Williams how he's feeling right about now. Karma is a bitch!

Actually..Susan has been pretty fair lately. She told the klintoooons to shut up and get lost....and during the Ca. recall told everyone how diappointed she was in the tactics of the Davis campaign. I give her a lot of credit for her stand aginst the DNC in those instances.
