I’m not pure business, but I know that some are.

To a true, detached businessman, losing the advertising on, and the resulting sales of the Rush show must be destroying some of them.

They aren’t principal driven, the sales losses must seem totally insane to them.

If they ever get Rush good and truly pissed off then they will find out what effective boycotts actually look like.

Limbaugh wields huge power in this country and isn`t shy about putting it to use. Very glad he`s on our side.

I would bet there are a lot of Media Matters “employees” sleeping in their Mom and Dad’s basement on a mattress that Mom or Dad bought because they heard it advertised on the Rush Limbaugh show.

Ironic?

Note to advertisers; Make sure whomever is attempting to boycott you is actually part of your customer demographic.

Amen to that!

[WildWeasel]

Good for Rush.

Why should he take any advertiser back that left him? I hope all of the deserters pay dearly with lost sales and losses while the advertisers that stayed with Rush profit tremendously.

Her name is spelled Fucke...not Fluke

Rush's ad rates will rise as his share increases and his base galvanizes.

Please don't throw Ol' Rushie in de boycott patch, Mr. Libby - anyting but dat!

The FReepers predicted this, (snicker).

Yet another company suffers the pains of incompetent leadership.

Yep. Leftist weanies that would refrain from buying a "Limbaugh product" were already not buying. The dust up over Fluke was like bald men writing angry letters to a curling iron company.

“The FReepers predicted this, (snicker).”

Actually, there were many that threw him under the bus.

Mess with the bull - get the horns...

[CharacterCounts]

One can almost understand their confusion. After all, they make mattresses and Fluke is obviously a big user of mattresses.

I did a little bt. I cancelled Netflix with a hand written letter mailed to customer service at their corporate HQ

Media Matters and the advertisers who bailed now know that it’s not a good idea to tug on Superman’s cape.

The one overwhelming fact is that Limbaugh commands many millions of listeners. There is no evidence that any of them have stopped listening because of the kerfuffle with Sandra Fluke. Indeed, one suspects that Limbaugh has gained listeners

Get off it!
The audience has verifiably swelled.

We are the power they need to reckon with.

I’ve got a feeling Proflowers is really going to take a hit come Easter time and mothers day. They’re about the only Rush advertiser that listeners like me could possibly utilize on a convenient and regular basis.
