Apparently enough people were outraged by the religious nuts label to convince cbs to edit them out of the article. The link originally posted no longer works, but the edited article is still on the front page and reads:

The "Christian" right's attack on "NYPD Blue" in the early 1990s, on the other hand, was a complete failure. It initially scared off some marketers, but the program's ratings and demographics were so good that it attracted business from sectors that don't expect to sell to those folks anyway -- including movies, beer, cosmetics, designer clothing, etc.

Her TV show tanked because of protests before it even started. It was never popular to begin with. Her enemies have had a lot less luck with her radio show, which is popular.

Excellent. Although I'm still not thrilled with the term "those folks," (imagine that term used for blacks or Muslims) I'm glad they saw the eror of their ways.

I have to agree about "those folks." CBS sure didn't put much effort into changing the offensive tone of the rest of the paragraph, but apparantly does draw the line at calling Christians "religious nuts."

People may wish to go here, and then post responses to said post here. It's pretty amusing, full of the usual ultra-left claptrap: Rush's show is dying and has been for years, Radio Shack actually cancelled even though they never advertised in the first place, etc etc.

These people are simply not an obstacle to us. They sit and stew in their own smugness, while we roll right over them.

See the cutesy little whale on his shirt? It's the Leftist version of childrens togs. Kids wear RugRats and SpongeBob stuff, and Leftists wear things with whales and Che and Castro and Hussein and bin Laden. But they naturally outgrow it, of course. They especially gravitate towards StormTrooper leather and rubber goods.

Rush is getting the Dr. Laura treatment..It's really too bad for these advertiser's... Maybe they can find a liberal venue that suits them..

I've developed a simple 2 simple click submit mass mailer system that hits both Rush's sponsors that are supporting and another for those that have distanced themselves from him

Simply go here and point and click...it really couldn't be any easier.

Huh??...all you have to do is follow this link

http://www.ronaldreagan.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=7;t=000141;p=1#000000

Point and click...it will open up your E-mail client (provided that you have one) with a form letter with all of Rush's sponsors (that have E-mail listings) in your "To:" window...

All you have to do is click the "Send" button. These forms were created in "Flash" so your browser will need to have the "Flash" plugin which you can get here if you need it.

Flash Player 6 Plugin

Okay, good...I had tested it using both Internet Explorer and Netscape and it worked fine.

It crossed my mind to try it in Opera, but I got distracted before I was able to get around to it.

This is just a simple, but effective technique...in the next day or so, I will have an advanced E-mailer on RonaldReagan.com that will offer multiple form letters so it doesn't look like spam to those recieving it.
