Rush Limbaugh’s advertising exodus is deep into its second week, and despite the radio host’s claim that the impact of 50 companies pulling their business has been negligible, listeners in the nation’s largest media market were treated to over five minutes of radio silence where Limbaugh’s advertisers once stood today.

There were four separate instances during this afternoon’s broadcast on WABC 770 AM in New York City where the network fell silent. During the lead in to the show, two and a half minutes of silence was broken up by a single, solitary ad before Limbaugh hit the air. Then, towards the end of the first hour of Limbaugh’s three hour program, a public service announcement was followed by an additional minute of silence before Limbaugh returned. Another minute of dead air came in hour two, and a fifth minute in hour three followed that. A spokesperson for WABC wouldn’t say whether the silence was caused due to a technical glitch or Limbaugh’s fleeing sponsors.

As Media Matters reports, of the 86 ads that made it on the air today, 77 of them were free public service announcements donated by the Ad Council. An additional seven ads were from companies that are in the process of pulling their spots from the show, leaving just two ads during the entire three hour broadcast that were purposefully paid to appear during the program.

Do you know of any petitions to get Rush off the air?

First of all: What we are doing is working! I just read where there was over three minutes of DEAD AIR on Limpball's show today.

TIME TO TURN UP THE HEAT and dump this misogynist pig into the garbage heap of history, where it belongs.

We have to hit these Republicans where they live — their TRUE RELIGION: MONEY.

The steady stream of advertisers fleeing Rush Limbaugh's radio show continued on Monday and Tuesday, as a barrage of new companies announced they would no longer run commercials on the program in the wake of Limbaugh's offensive comments about Sandra Fluke.

Every bully goes too far one day. For Joe McCarthy it was the Army-McCarthy Hearings. For Bobby Knight it was choking a player. Perhaps—if our Nation is lucky—this is the end of the line for Rush Limbaugh. He knows he stepped in it. You can hear the fear in his voice. There is no justification for his bullshit any longer and anybody who defends him is a coward, a fool or both.He is down from a self-inflicted wound and it is time to kick him.

"You Could Hear the Fear..."

Dennis G. | Balloon-Juice:

FEAR.

It was in every phrase. Every word. He was pleading. Whiney. And full of self-pity. He verbally thrashed and sought a scapegoat. Naturally he decided that all of his actions were President Obama’s fault. Fear was in his voice as he tried to craft an alternate reality where President Obama’s support for women to be in control of their health care choices forced poor old Rushbo to call Sandra Fluke a slut and a whore.

The effort to get advertisers to pull their ads from Limbaugh’s show is working. If you haven’t joined the fun, I urge your to get involved. Here is a link to one Boycott Rush effort, and another, and another.

I've been surfing around various ex-Limbaugh-advertisers social media sites and — surprise, surprise! — the gullible rube 27%ers who typically whine about the "Free Market", are now whining about how advertisers dumping Limbaugh is somehow related to "Free Speech".

Can the smart people please run the country?

Boycott Rush.

BOYCOTT RUSH LIMBAUGH

There's a movement going on to boycott Rush Limbaugh and his sponsors after the disgusting commentary he made regarding women's right to OCPs (oral contraceptive pill). 

In brief (for those of you who don't know), he made a statement saying that women who take birth controls are "sluts" and because it would be paid for by insurance, this makes us "prostitutes." He continued to say that if this were to pass, women receiving this benefit should post videos of themselves doing sexual acts as reciprocation.

Below is a list of sponsors along with their numbers/addresses/email addresses. Don't just sit there and let them pay this man to call women "sluts" just because we use contraceptive pills...there are so many other uses (regulating periods, acne reduction, etc...).

LET THEM KNOW WHAT YOU THINK! SPREAD THE WORD. DON'T LET THIS PIG GET AWAY WITH SUCH HORRIFIC BEHAVIOR. I DON'T CARE IF YOU ARE RIGHT WING OR LEFT...THIS IS WRONG.
