The 1957 Elia Kazan film, "A Face in the Crowd" tells the story of Lonesome Rhodes (played by Andy Griffith)- a hypocritical and manipulative media superstar who used his influence to manipulate American politics. Ultimately, his downfall came by his own actions. I am interested if any other DU'ers familiar with this film see a parallel to what is happening to Rush Limbaugh.

as in ESPN playing the role of Patricia Neal's "Marcia," who threw the switch to let the public hear what a hypocritical fraud Lonsome Rhodes truly was?
