1. We will be covering the death of Rush Limbaugh. But here is our framing: "Rush Limbaugh, whose bigoted and derogatory radio show became one of the highest rated talk shows on the US airwaves, died on Wednesday at the age of 70"

2. "Limbaugh regularly targeted Americans of color including the nation’s first Black Presidential couple with racist diatribes. He also attacked memebers of the LGBTQ community and was well known for making deeply sexist commentary toward women."

3. "Most recently he downplayed the severity of COVID-19 and pushing false claims that Democrats stole the 2020 election from Donald Trump."

4. "Limbaugh’s politics laid the groundwork for decades of growing radicalism in the Republican Party and the emergence of President Donald Trump, forever changing the influence of talk radio in politics."

We'll be joined by @MattGertz to break it down.
