Cumulus: Nearly All Top Advertisers Have 'Exclude Rush Limbaugh' Orders

Wonderful. He represents the ugly vulgar soul of Tea Party America, which needs to be ostracized and run out of town on a rail.
 
LOL !! Hope all you want, it's not happening.

We're currently exposing your corrupt and incompetent President, no one cares about getting rid of Rush.
 
So much for the concept of free speech.

We? How are you involved in the process?
 
"The Rush Limbaugh Program," considered to be the most popular talk radio program in the nation. . .."

Someone needs to report this "Cumulus" to the suicide prevention hotline.

Cumulus: Nearly All Top Advertisers Have 'Exclude Rush Limbaugh' Orders

I really hope this is the beginning of the end for Rush. I also really hope this is a signal that the country is sick and tired of political garbage for entertainment and is more interested in real discussion.

If the Country had much interest in "real discussion", then a political philosophy summarized by the bumper sticker phrase "hope 'n' change" would have produced little more than affronted derision.

How odd that lacking in coherent arguments, some people hope for the "end" of their conversational betters.

You guys can critique all you want, Rush has millions of listeners, who buy stuff and that's all advertizers care about.

They could give a rats ass about some fringe left wing opinion.
 
You Left Wing zealots could always try and create a radio station to compete with Limbaugh

Oh wait ...

The actions taken by so many advertisers would indicate that this is not just a "fringe opinion."

But you're right. Advertisers only care about the money. And people have targeted Rush's advertisers with boycotts, causing them to lose money. Which is exactly why the advertisers are behaving this way. There will always be listeners and therefore always advertisers, but at some point the economics of his show might no longer work out.

Why should anyone want to emulate such vitriol?
 
On the other hand, one could just turn the channel and avoid confirming they are a fool for getting upset about what may or may be said on those programs.

Feel free to point this out to all the conservatives who complain about "mainstream media" bias.

Which as I understand it Rush does daily, your point? You want him muzzled? Good liberal.

As for the OP, a bunch of steaming BS. His show, again as I understand it, is still very popular and his numbers are high. He's not sucking for advertisers, and those who boycott him this way are either using it to satisfy their own meager customer base or trying to change their image with the public.

And despite all the talk, liberal themed radio is still sucking dust.

Rush is a purveyor of terrible propaganda. His garbage poisons the minds of millions. He makes millions off the ignorance and gullibility of his audience. His downfall is a step towards progress, towards ridding America of ridiculous ultra right-wing belligerence. This is the root cause of much of what is wrong with America today.
 
I consider Limbaugh to be ridiculous. That being said - I pose a challenge to you.

Without using google, name one advertiser that has been "boycotted". Preferably one that YOU have participated in boycotting that you might normally have used before you found out thy were advertisers.






(see what I mean. Stupid sells.)

The only hatred and vitriol seen and heard these days comes from the Left

You know, I'm thinking you're probably not in a position to "speak" for millions, nor judge their intelligence. To assume as much does not bode well for the personal depth of those abilities you're claiming others have in short supply.

This has nothing to do with censorship, I could care less about people expressing their opinion on the radio. This is about America rejecting this garbage. This is about Americans turning away from manipulators that convince them to act against their own best interests.

Nobody has a right to a radio show. As Limbaugh will soon learn as his toxic ideology is turning corporate America against him and his "slut" remarks.

Why then, the silence would be deafening...

Besides, it's important for America to avoid those who try to decide for themselves who should, and shouldn't be allowed to express an opinion.

Probably the reason god invented doors, and on/off switches.

Poor thinskinned tea partiers -- can't even take a little criticism of the Oxycontin king, Limbaugh.
