Just heard Rush Limbaugh's morning update. He said due to Apple CEO's anti free speech "sermon", his cooperation with Apple is over.

How does it work in IT?

If I knew how anything worked in IT I wouldn’t need a seamless operating system like Apple.

I think many companies are very mistaken to discuss politics and life styles, etc. No matter which side someone advocates, there will always be those on the other side.

A company primary goal is to sell its product or services. Why would you give anyone a reason to not consider your company when purchasing? This concept seems to escape many companies today. They think their main goal is to make the world a better place according to their believes. Let your product make the world a better place, not your believes!

As these companies enter into the Chinese market they will be shocked! Just look at Google and their employee's revolt about the Censored Search Engine for China. There is going to be a wake up call one day, either profits or believes, you cannot have both. I can't wait for China to complete its take over of Hollywood, talk about a cold bucket of water in your face!

Better late than never re the Apple scam.

I've studiously avoided anything Apple since the beginning.

Rush is a 3 hour infomercial, and Ive grown to doubt his sincerity. I stopped listening a few weeks ago.

Bingo. THAT’S exactly the harm the endless infomercials do. Because he sounds so sincere on his five minute plugs for $500 sheets or whatever other crap people pay him money to sell for them, you have to wonder how sincere he is about the OTHER things he sounds sincere about.

He’s undercut his own credibility with this crap - and it’s all out of nothing but pure greed.

Are you a “harm ye none” Wiccan, or did you just post without thinking.... Critical Thinking 101 requires comparisons. MS will not sue you, by the way.

Thank you for that, but I doubt if anyone here cares who you do or do not listen to.

Steve Jobs knew that. Tim Cook, is no Steve Jobs.

AND I'm sure YOU have been missed and his sponsor's VALUES have dropped.

I don’t know about Rush, but I long ago (began 1994-1995) made the move to Linux and have ZERO regrets.

Unfortunately one has very limited options in this area.

Yep. When it comes to computer tech, the options are pretty much liberal, liberal, and liberal.

It's difficult to comprehend the disaster that giving leftists total control over the computing and internet realm will manifest upon us.

Several years ago, Rush Limbaugh boasted about being an Apple computer user. Will he now be using a PC?

Prav, if his stations can’t sell ad time on his show, why would they air it? Limbaugh has stated a commitment to stay on AM/FM radio. That means ad time. Fans who can’t/won’t do his paywall will put up with the ads. That’s how broadcast radio works.

Why do this to your listeners, Rush?

$

He's been doing it for decades.

His branded promotions are the worst. Ties. Click. Turn him back on, they were only letting people through that would talk about his ties before the caller could get to the point of the call. Chased me away for about six months.

Iced Tea. Click. His ABS was so annoying that he got out of the habit of even trying to listen, so now I mostly hear him on weekend rebroadcasts, rather than any time during the week.

When my non-tech father was alive, even he noticed the Apple overload, commenting that Limbaugh must have stock in the company, not realizing it was a paid "commercial".

I just posted something I heard on the radio and you think I'm a witch?

Who gets to decide what’s free speech? If I say that the Muslim religion treats women like property and teaches hatred of gays, is that hate speech? Who gets to decide? People are already going to jail for any criticism of the Muslim religion in Europe.

If *ANYONE* is ‘deciding’ what is/not free speech, it’s no longer Free Speech.

Exactly!

Tim Cook should be replaced as CEO. He’s generally clueless.
