After talk radio titan Rush Limbaugh mocked left-wing/birth control activist Sandra Fluke as a "slut" (something he later apologized for) the organized left thought they could finally silence The Most Listened To Talk Show Host in America by picking off his advertisers. The boycott, organized mostly by the left-wing Media Matters, can now officially be called a failure with the news that advertisers have not only returned, but that the show is pacing ahead of last year:
"Rush Limbaugh’s distributor on Thursday said there is no denying the conservative radio host’s controversial comments about Sandra Fluke hurt advertising last year — but 2013 is apparently a whole different ballgame."
"This year, Limbaugh is drawing new advertisers and recovering well after the major boycott he faced in response to his broadcasts on Fluke, Premiere Radio senior vice president and director of talk radio sales Dan Metter told the Talkers New York 2013 conference."

She expects to be paid in contraceptives by the government for having sex.
She has sex for compensation, the very definition of a whore.
Another Media Matters fail
Clearchannel posted a loss last year...and the lefties rejoiced.
They can’t understand that their revenue is up...and the loss is because they spent money purchasing a whole bunch of other media type businesses...positioning for the future.
If you’re looking to advertise on radio these days, where you gonna go to get any better bang for your buck than Limbaugh? Nowhere.
There were a couple of vocal Rush haters I thought should never have been allowed to return.
I know, I know....it's har business decisions, blah, blah, etc........but I can't believe Rush has NO say over advertisers.
If he didn't his radio show and the network would be flooded with advertisers and political commercials from the liberal and radical world.

I was going to comment here, but the first five posts covered it. Just damn... :^)
‘Fluke IS a slut.’
She certainly is in more ways than one! Being a whore for Obama is worse and he certainly didn’t mind using her to get elected.
roflol!
Yes, I’m sure!
"Sandra you ignorant Slut!"
They tried. They were denied.
No one can just call up and advertise on Rush' show.
They have to submit a business plan and qualify to do so.....and the list I quite long.
Don't know about the local stuff but National is a different game.
Believe me, Rush picks his advertisers, they don't pick him.
Yep, no more pro-flowers or anything connected to pro-flowers for us. We used them all the time before this. Their flowers weren’t all that great anyhow.
One of the first requirements for being a libtard is economic illiteracy...
Sherri’s Berries are of the same company
Yeppers. Sherri can keep her berries.
No one can just call up and advertise on Rush' show.
Some of that advertiser time is reserved for the local stations and Rush has no control over it. I expect he has control over what he personally endorses.
