Heh, “high-ranking source”. They do want to try to squeeze blood out of a six-month-old story any way they can.

[Jonty30]

I highly doubt that any real advertiser cares all that much about what Limbaugh said 6 months ago.

[skeeter]

Yeah, its funny how this story suddenly re-surfaces in several different places simultaneously.

[2ndDivisionVet]

Yeah, that’s why Rush makes over $100 million a year and Sean about $40 million.

[svcw]

Why would any advertiser reject an audience of 20milliom+ and 10million+...anyone beleive this?
Not me.

[Olog-hai]

Of course not. This is just the media trying to squeeze blood out of Dickey’s recent tirades.

[GraceG]

Sounds like someone, somewhere is trying to “Alinsky” the Advertisers by convincing them that the other advertisers don’t want to advertise...

It wasn’t just a “Fluke”, i’ll tell you that...

[manc]

to be honest talk radio has been cowards for the most part on social issues, the likes of Hannity are a joke, can’t mention marriage don’t ask but he states he supports the troops and vets.
Can’t mention cross dressing, abortion much either but he plays the safe angle to keep peace with his pals Beckel, Colmes etc and the establishment .

Only Levin and a couple are worth listening to now

[Ouderkirk]

Sandra Fluke is a slut.....I don't see what the issue is?

[Diana in Wisconsin]

B.S. LOL!

[FlingWingFlyer]

This is Obama and the ‘RATS Business Insider. It has to be taken with a grain of salt. In preparation for passage of the 8 Gangsters amnesty bill, I signed up for LifeLock today. It’s about to get ugly.

[DManA]

The NYT, MSNBC, and their ilk don’t make money either. When are they going away?

[mikrofon]

But — that’s so LONG ago ....

[Vendome]

Name em.

This whole thing is good for Rush and anonymous advertisers are probably companies no one knows about anyway.

[Blood of Tyrants]

It is just another liberal lie right up there with the “90% of guns in Mexico are from the US”.

[norwaypinesavage]

This is all part of the Obama/liberal media attempt to silence Rush. It ain’t gonna work.

[Huskrrrr]

Sinking ships like NewsWeak have been predicting the demise of talk radio for decades.

[Blood of Tyrants]

And the people who bitched about Rush calling Fluke a slut never listen to him anyway.

[NonValueAdded]

Is someone forcing Cumulus to renew the contract? Seems like the solution is pretty simple for them. Or did Rush tell them to take a hike and Cumulus is simply laying down a “video made them do it” story for their stockholders?

[Olog-hai]

From the story as it was told six months back, it’s the latter.
