Vid: "You need not react that way"..Limbaugh loses audience control, 1990

Panopticist: "1990, a year or two before he became super-famous, Rush Limbaugh guest-hosted Pat Sajak's short-lived talk show. It didn't go so well: The taping was disrupted by a group of angry activists who were seated throughout the audience.

1. The man starts the show with a rank, ridiculous insult

3. wow - what ever happened to those who said they would quash him?
