Okay, I know I am not the smartest person in the world, but I have never even seen the comments. What exactly did he say? I was out of town in meetings and I come back to this. I am so angry at these advertisers because they are pulling their ads and I can’t even seem to find what Rush actually said! This all seems very strange to me. You would think if he did something that outrageous you would be able to find it everywhere! Not just that he called a woman a name.

She should be hired to advertise by whoever makes revolving doors.

I think Sleep Train disabled their contact us area. I could not get the form to submit no matter what I did.

So Ms. Fluke happened to be PART of a PROTEST GROUP last year that CALLED itself SLUTS? (Following on to the ALL CAPS MOTIF here.)

Hey, Rush took her at face value. He could be magnanimous and invite Ms. Fluke on the program to explain how really, truly, she isn’t a slut.

Excellent comment about Select Comfort not being able to offend customers like Fluke who spend so much time on their backs.Please email them that!

When these companies use a mealy mouth phrase like “ this doesn’t align with our values” they should be asked which specific values did Rush violate.

I don’t want to do business with companies that think the First Amendment is optional.

These “movements” to boycott advertisers who drop shows rarely have the effect that boycotters think they have. I’m not saying that they never put a pinch on the companies are boycotted, but the unseen effect on companies who do not advertise with the show in question is tremendous.

It usually plays out something like this:

Marketing Meeting

Marketing guy, “JB, we’ve been offered a discount to advertise on the XYZ since several of their advertisers dropped them. It’s a huge market, and at this price I don’t think we can say no.”

JB, “I saw that on my desk yesterday, but let’s hold on a minute. These listeners/viewers/whatever are so militant that if we get on board, we can never leave. I think we need to stick with politically neutral venues we can get in and out of without creating ill will. Let’s stick with Clear Channels syndicated sports package. No one is ever boycotted for dropping a sports program.”

Marketing guy, “I didn’t think of it like that JB. Maybe you’re right.”

Does Rush offer the same tea in instant form? (He ought to, that would get a lot more sales as the shipping would be minimal.)

Don't worry, a pissant company like Sleep Train is starting to hear the opposite of what they thought at first.

They don't realize that they have stirred up the Mother of all Hornets Nests. They think they can force Rush to cower and shiver into caving in to their demands. When it is a guarantee that they will be begging Rush to give them another chance after this all settles.

They are about to regret every misguided step they have taken.
