The Corner

Read This Sweet Short Story Now

It’s 2012, the Fairness Doctrine has forced Rush Limbaugh off the air, President Obama is running for a second term, and Bill Clinton–didn’t he used to be an ambassador or something?–has found himself in…reduced circumstances.

In “Missing Rush Limbaugh,” novelist Robert Ferrigno has produced a strangely wonderful thing:  A tale of the near future that’s both utterly hilarious and really pretty scary.  My favorite detail?  The “I’m Sorry” button.  I mean, it’s perfect.
