Etymology

Coined by listeners of Rush Limbaugh's radio show, from the habit of calling in with the single-word comment "Ditto!".

Noun

dittohead (plural: dittoheads)

  1. Someone who is a fan of Rush Limbaugh's radio program. A Dittohead needn't agree with anything Rush Limbaugh says; merely enjoying the program is enough to qualify.
  2. Pejorative. A person who agrees with Rush Limbaugh unquestioningly.
    It'll probably never happen, but if Rush Limbaugh and his clear-cut-crazy dittoheads could see this hauntingly beautiful documentary, even they might start choking on one of his favorite epithets, "environmental wacko." [1]
