Look, I never got Stern’s humor, The Three Stooges and many others. But I do make a distinction between humor falling flat and someone (like the BNP or Robert S. McCain) who is being completely serious. Based on some of the threads here the writers of All in the Family would be deemed “racists, homophobes, etc”.

There was absolutely nothing even remotely humorous about Limbaugh’s rant against Andrew Revkin. He compared environmentalists to suicide bombers, then told Revkin to go kill himself — and he did it with a very angry tone of voice. Trying to paint this as “humor” is completely ridiculous.
