According to what Netflix told me via e-mail....they don't advertise with Rush. And have never done so intentionally. And don't intend to, either.

My guess is that they're lying. Because a fib costs them nothing and is hard to verify, given that someone who objects to Rush's program is not going to spend hours listening. Someone who supports Rush's program and hears from Rush that such-and-such a sponsor has cancelled is going to stop giving that sponsor his business. People like the Carbonite CEO don't realize that there is a major difference in commitment between people who listen to Rush and people who don't. Non-listeners would never patronize a sponsor's business just for boycotting Rush, whereas listeners will boycott them in retaliation.

I tell you what....here's what they wrote to me.

Netflix has not and does not purchase advertising on the Rush Limbaugh show. We do buy network radio advertising and have confirmed that two Netflix spots were picked up in error as part of local news breaks during the Rush Limbaugh show. We have instructed our advertising agency to make sure that this error will not happen again.

And here's their e-mail address...pr@netflix.com

You write them....

Let me know what find out.
