You actually have a point, -blank-, although you miss the next logical step.
Even this column with Glenns endless complaints about the right, all you're doing is playing into their hands. They don't care what you think and they're not shamed.
Perhaps and quite likely this is the case. Being salaried employees however they do care about their jobs.
So if, as happened with Sean Hannity recently, it was pointed out these people are friends and supporters of prominant America haters and asked if they agreed with their sentiments, what would happen?
In Hannity's case (if I read the story correctly), he stated he wasn't really 'friends' at all. This in turn lead to a very strong statement from his neo-nazi buddy who set the record straight and promised violence upon those who uses his name this way again.
My point is that there's a third option besides becoming like them or just ignoring them. Its precisely what Glenn did Sunday: broadcast how these idiots link themselves to their extremist supporters and make them defend themselves for a change.
In other words, hold them to the same 'standards' they hold everyone else and don't be shy about calling them on it. Ultimately, their audience (and supporters) will hopefully see them for the weasels they are and quit giving them airtime. An added benefit would be a loss in advertising revenue when said advertisers learn what kind of moral degenerates they're paying into.
