I would guess that Clear Channel has a waiting list for ads during Rush’s show. Maybe Trojan is next.
Trojan! Now that would be funny.
What I can't believe is all these sponsors actually suspending their advertisements in a prime spot. And I do think that is key word in all these statements.
They use the word "suspend," which to me means temporary. We say the pulling their advertising dollars and that means something else entirely different.
Now knowing that the guy from Media Matters is behind this orchestrated attack on EIB should have all people very concerned. Media Matters is a 501 c3 and using our tax dollars to browbeat conservative talkshows into submission. They did it to Beck and now they have found a soft-spot for Limbaugh. Who was the other guy, the first one that got booted off the air? Called a woman a hoe?
All of this media stir has been trumped up to these unbelievable levels by propaganda. Rush is very used to stirring the media pot, but the level this has reached is utter lunacy. The word, 'slut,' causes such rancor to a level like this? Pleeeaasseee!
Rush got caught in their trap by carrying on about this for 3 days on his show. He spent 2 days fending off the media attacks and not backing down.
We say there are bigger things than Rush Limbaugh's use of the word slut to be worried about. They are telling us in their world, no there is not. The biggest thing they are worried about is Conservative Free Speech.
They know stratigically they have to bring the First Amendment down.
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
This is a list of what Congress cannot do.
While we all realize the fight with the Catholic Church and the healthcare mandate is a direct infringment...
Can Congress mandate money to groups to abridge the freedom of speech? Media Matters
Can Congress mandate money to groups to create their own press? PBS and NPR
Can Congress mandate laws regarding assembly? In case you didn't catch the information they just passed a very concerning law regarding this very issue.
This firestorm is about destroying our Rights. There is no 'court of public opinion,' when propaganda and robo-emails are mobilized against any public figure.
