Inside Bill Maher's mouth.
“The sponsors have just begun to pay for their bad judgement, or should I say lose from it.”
Many of the sponsors announced they were “suspending”, not ending their advertising on Rush’s program. It may be they planned to temporarily stop advertising until the storm blew over and then quietly resume. No doubt many of these advertisers are now experiencing sales losses due to the lower level of messaging to an important target audience as well as the backlash effect from angry Rush listeners.
If any of these companies are publicly traded, and experience a sales decline so significant it has to be declared in their public SEC filings, management could be vulnerable to shareholder lawsuits claiming management was not acting in the interest of shareholders when it decided to stop the advertising. If conservatives want to play hard ball, the best way would be tangling these companies up in expensive shareholder lawsuits. Are there any conservative tort attorneys willing to go the class action route on this?
The apology was the only way to reload the trap and the libs fell right in. Kicking it back in Rush’s face let even stupid people know that this was a setup from the get-go. Besides, calling her a “slut” was a reach anyway, as sluthood implies that there are males that would have sex with this harpy in the first place.
Which is exactly why he will never apologize to Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, or any other Conservative woman he has trashed. He knows he will lose the far left whack job drones who watch him
No thank you. Rush doesn’t need dirtbag like Maher sticking up for him. He can step off..long ago. Nobody carries his water, except his listeners and supporters.
Niet try, Maher...it won’t work.
I’m not sure if Landmark Legal Foundation (Mark Levin’s group) does tort...but it would be an interesting question...
Mark, would LLF be interested in this?
For some reason I thought it was next door to Bulgaria. LOL!
