Boycott Limbaugh's Sponsors

The inflammatory conservative political commentator and host of talk radio program The Rush Limbaugh Show set off a firestorm on Wednesday with his outrageous comments about Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke, who was barred from testifying last week before an all-male panel during a House of Representatives hearing on religious freedom and the Obama administration's contraception policy. Limbaugh on Wednesday called Fluke a "slut."
By Saturday morning, March 3, 2012, Legal Zoom, Citrix Success, Heart and Body Extract, AutoZone, Quicken Loans, Sleep Train, Sleep Number and Oreck said they had removed their commercials from Limbaugh's show.
Nine companies sponsoring Limbaugh remained on the list--but may be in the process of cancelling their sponsorship of Limbaugh.  They are: ProFlowers, CARBONITE, Inc., Mid-West Life Insurance Company of Tennessee, American Forces Network, Mission Pharmacal Company, Life Quotes, Inc., Life Lock, Tax Resolution and AOL.
Remember that in 2008 Clears Channel signed a contract with Limbaugh guaranteeing Limbaugh $400 million [plus a $100 million signing bonus] for the six years form 2008 through 2016.  That money comes from the companies who sponsor Limbaugh's program.  And, indirectly, that money comes from your and my pockets--the pockets of the customers of the companies who sponsor Limbaugh.
It may actually be possible get Rush Limbauch kicked off the airwaves once and for all--when the money runs out.
Website Left Action has also set up a Boycott Rush page that lists sponsors of the show. A petition attached to the page attracted close to 50,000 signatures in less than 24 hours, according to a statement on the page.
