RUSH: Now, I want to go on to the next bite. This is from Sunday, yesterday, CNN's Reliable Sources. Our old buddy Little Brian Stelter had as his guest CNN senior media reporter Oliver Darcy. The question was, "What was the media story of the week?" Now, I want you to remember, CNN, for whatever…

RUSH: Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, Lacey, we continue with you. Hello. CALLER: Hi, Rush. RUSH: Hey.
