A dittohead is a fan of The Rush Limbaugh Show. (Dittohead is also the title of a track on the Album Divine Intervention by Slayer.)

Saying "dittos" (or even "mega-dittos") was started by a Rush Limbaugh caller in 1988 as a shorthand way for callers to say they love the program and for Rush to never quit doing the radio show. "Dittoheads" do not have to agree with Limbaugh, as it simply means that they enjoy the show and admire the skill of Limbaugh.

The term has been used as a snipe by people who see it as an example of groupthink allegedly encouraged by Limbaugh.
