Whatever, truthout is using it to recruit subscribers and I haven't heard it anywhere else--no more free feed access to getting out the truth. Hell, I even had to subscribe to the American Statesman to keep up with what's goin' on in River City.

  Rush Limbaugh Arrested on Drug Charges
    The Associated Press
      Friday 28 April 2006
      West Palm Beach - Rush Limbaugh was arrested Friday on prescription drug charges, law enforcement officials said.
      Limbaugh turned himself in to authorities on a warrant issued by the State Attorney's Office, said Teri Barbera, a spokeswoman for the State Attorney's Office.
      The conservative radio commentator came into the jail at about 4 p.m. with his attorney Roy Black and bonded out an hour later on a $3,000 bail, Barbera said.
      The warrant was for fraud to conceal information to obtain prescription, Barbera said.
      Black said his client and authorities reached a settlement on a single count charge of doctor shopping filed Friday by the State Attorney will be dismissed in 18 months.
      Prosecutors seized Limbaugh's records after learning that he received about 2,000 painkillers, prescribed by four doctors in six months, at a pharmacy near his Palm Beach mansion. They contend that Limbaugh engaged in "doctor shopping," or illegally deceived multiple doctors to receive overlapping prescriptions.
      Limbaugh has not been charged and maintains he's innocent. He has acknowledged he became addicted to pain medication, blaming it on severe back pain, and took a five-week leave from his radio show to enter a rehabilitation program in 2003.
