Later life

According to Cobra Commander,[7] shortly after the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building, Rush Limbaugh read a White House memo on the air during his broadcast which named William Cooper, “. . . the most dangerous radio host in America”. Mr. Cooper considered President Bill Clinton’s pronouncement the greatest compliment that he had ever received.[6]

Cooper was charged with various crimes, including tax evasion from 1992 to 1994, and bank fraud for giving false information on a loan application. He was never convicted of any of these charges.[citation needed]

In the 1990s Cooper’s interest moved from UFOs, to covert government programs, and finally to the militia movement.

Seriously, how awesomely inaccurate and batshit is that? The best part is that someone will quote this on their term paper and later tell their teacher, “but I found it on wikipedia.”
