But haven’t some stations which carry El Rushbo suffered loss in advertising revenue noon to 3 pm?
Since the boycott I hear too many PSAs on WABC NYC 770 rather than real ads.

I hear too many PSAs

It seems the number of PSA's have increased during 0bama's regime; how stupid and annoying they are, seems should be more directed to the lib stations, OH WAIT, there aren't any :-)

That would be the result of the local commercial times as opposed to the national commercials, which remain essentially unchanged.

Same in here in the DFW metroplex on WBAP - lots and lots of PSAs. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the recent sale of the station to Cumulus.

Are you listening online or over the air? Online, most station breaks are PSAs rather than ads. Besides, the radio stations have many advertisers who pay to be on whenever, not specifically during a particular show, and would simply fill in, using them, any space opened up from an advertiser who time-shifted an ad at the particular time Rush was on. See THIS.

Limbaugh refuses to take back advertiser who dumped him

3/10/2012

There's no going back to Rush Limbaugh. Nearly a dozen advertisers defected from the controversial radio host's program after he called Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke a "slut" and a "prostitute." One of them was mattress retailer Sleep Train, which had been advertising with Limbaugh for 25 years. In the wake of the controversy, the company said they were "currently" pulling their ads. "Currently" came and went, and a Limbaugh spokesman said Sleep Train had asked to resume a "voiced endorsement" from Limbaugh, according to the LA Times. However, Sleep Train apparently didn't grovel sufficiently, and Limbaugh closed the door on resuming their relationship: A Limbaugh spokesman wrote in an email to Sleep Train that "your public comments were not well received by our audience, and did not accurately portray either Rush Limbaugh's character or the intent of his remarks. Thus, we regret to inform you that Rush will be unable to endorse Sleep Train in the future."

If that is so and they think it is because of Rush they can announce they will no longer carry Rush after his present contract runs out or they can buy out his contract. I predict Limbaugh would be back up in that market the next day!!!
