Thanks for the defamation lesson, but you're wrong. Even if it's false, Sharpton must show actual malice because he's a public figure.
Having said that, who cares? Rush is upset because the NFL won't let him buy a team. Where does it say he has any right to an NFL team? The NFL could exclude him for any reason, good, bad, or non-existent.
What I'm more interested in is the hypocrisy shown by conservatives who are exercised about this, but jumped on the bandwagon when Rush sought to have Ward Churchill fired. He's the former U of Colorado professor who appallingly called 9/11 victims "little Eichmann's." Then it was okay to fire someone based on something they said.
Apparently only conservatives have free speech rights.
The difference being that Limbaugh is accused of saying things that have not been verified, whereas Churchill's statements are documented and he admitts to saying them.

Just when you think that you have seen and heard everything, some fecal matter with feet, that tries to pass himself off as a legitimate representative of his people, files suit against Rush Limbaugh! It wasn't that long ago, when people like tawana brawley's hero, would simply disappear, never to be seen or heard from again. I can't wait for the pendulum to swing back in that direction.

Clowns like Sharpton and Jackson have made a career and gotten fat cat rich exploiting the misery of their own people. The black race will never overcome it's problems following these two charlatans who much like Obama know how to shift blame and use slieght of hand to focus their followers attention on invented crisis' while picking your pockets clean.
