Sigh. All radio talk show hosts should not have ANY friends in the establishment. And they all do. I’ll continue to listen to them but they are all conflicted in their own way.

There is nothing wrong with being conflicted. The problem is when you are not straight up with disclosing your conflicts. Take Rush, from the outset he has clearly stated his bias toward Trump, having known him, played golf with him, etc. He has told us how he personally feels about Trump so we can crank that factor into how we judge his objectivity on the matter. Trust me, Levin now wishes he would have made the disclosure on Cruz from the get go. He can not go back and do it over again and it is too late to do so when someone else is about to spill the beans. Unfortunately, rather than include a mea culpa with his disclosure last evening he doubled down and attacked, which is only going to make matters worse.
