Interview with Zev Chafets, Author of Rush Limbaugh: Army of One
Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010
Editor’s Note: In this exclusive interview, Zev Chafets discusses his book Rush Limbaugh: An Army of One, the speculation that Rush Limbaugh will be “destroyed eventually,” Rush’s Fox News connection, and more.
ALL RIGHT MAGAZINE: Your new book is Rush Limbaugh: An Army of One, and people will be surprised about some of the biographical content therein. What would you say surprised you most about the man during the course of your studies?
ZEV CHAFETS: The thing that surprised me most was Rush’s willingness to let me into what has been a somewhat closed world. He gave me a huge amount of time, and while I doubt he spilled every secret, he never lied to me about anything, which, in my professional experience, is unusual. As far as his biography is concerned, I was impressed by the degree to which Rush’s worldview was–and remains–shaped by his father. A large part of Rush’s life has been dedicated to winning his father’s respect and approval.
