New York Daily News | (Video News Clip) | – –

Rush Limbaugh lambasted stories about Irma as deadly Category 5 hurricane as “fake news” intended to bolster a “climate change agenda” by spreading fear.

On Friday Limbaugh ran in terror as Irma closed in on his Florida studio, announcing his show had been cancelled until next week, when it would be broadcast from parts unknown.

That’s some hoax.
