So wait a sec..are you saying it was OK when Rush flacked for Carbonite?
Sure I am. And I support Jamie Curtis flacking for yogurt, too. And Michael Jordan flacking for underwear, too. And Matthew Broderick flacking for a car company. Etc.
Actually, you’re doing the “flacking” with your post...Rush gets PAID for promoting products and services. I really don’t think he’s going to lose much sleep over losing Carbonite.
I’ve never understood the cost/benefit of Carbonite. For $70 I can buy a portable 500 gb HD and use it to back-up my computer. I don’t leave it plugged in but keep it in my fire-proof box.
no it was easy to ignore the ridiculous product. Now that they have called attention to themselves they are no longer worthy of being ignored.
“So wait a sec..are you saying it was OK when Rush flacked for Carbonite?”
Yep.
Kind of a sort of everyone loved Stalin after he stopped frenching Hitler kinda thingy.
Or maybe the way Britain loved the Imperial Japanese Navy battleships that attacked British and Aussie forces... during WW1 when they defended Australia from the Kaiser’s warships.
Yeah the same IJN battleships that blasted the RAN to bits at Java Sea and off Guadalcanal once defended Sydney.
At least when Carbonite supported Rush their crap product had symbolic value.
