Boycott Rush Limbaugh Advertisers

Rate: 9 Flag
Here is a list of advertisers to the Rush Limbaugh show. Drop them letters and emails to let them know that you will not support their businesses as long as Limbaugh is spewing his racist hate-speech and undermining President Obama's efforts to stimulate the economy.

Remember that ink-and-stamp counts for more than emails.
Agreed!!! I already gave up that piece of sh!t Oreck vacuum, but Barnes & Noble will be a little harder ...
Barnes and Noble just breaks my heart. They should know better.
They are probably hoping his listeners will buy out their stock of Hooked on Phonics while learning to read.
Meander1, thanks for providing this. I couldn't bear to listen to his show to write them down. appreciated and rated for activism
So happy you have posted these. I usually listen and call the advertisers, and if it's an 800 number, keeping them on the line costs them employee time as well , at least a little.
It should cost them to advertise with that ....buffoon.
Rush is complimented by being called a blowhard. It's better to do as Olbermann does, and call him a clown or a buffoon, as Joe Klein did.
Pleased to serve, folks - feel free to pass them on. In fact, I encourage it.
This is a great idea.

We need to hit those sons of bitches in the only place it hurts...the wallet.

In Limpd**k's case, even kicking him there won't hurt so we hit the son of a bitch in the wallet.
Here's a template of a pretty good letter for our purposes, written by Thinly Veiled at my regular blog:

Dear Sleep Number Bed People:

I have been, for some time, planning to purchase one of your beds. I have done the research, and come to the conclusion that you produce a fine product which would be of great benefit to both my husband and myself. I was distressed, however, to find that your company advertises on the Rush Limbaugh Show. For this reason, I find myself unable to purchase from you at this time. I cannot, in good conscience, financially support a company that endorses, through its advertising dollars, a person who engages in such vile, treasonous rhetoric. If, in the future, you should decide to refrain from advertising on this program, I will be happy to reconsider my decision.

Sincerely,
This is a great post. I am going to forward these advertisers to my email list. Boycotts can be highly effective. Thanks for posting.
Thanks for the links list and I have added your blog link to my current boycott post.
Limbaugh has gone way too far this time. (Rated)
Thanks for the link Meander; like OES there's no way I could listen to that gasbag's show long enough to write these down. This is a great public service.
Hmmm. Well it will be easy to avoid all of those except Barnes & Noble. What a shame...but then, I guess there's always amazon.com. :)

A friend just contacted Overstock.com. They replied that they stopped in 2006 when Fat Boy ridiculed Michael J. Fox. I hate to listen to his show just to find out. Is Overstock.com still an advertizer on Rush Limbaugh's show?

============================

Hi, cpagirl!

I found this for you:

"Overstock.com
1-800-989-0135
(customer comments and service email)
otherinfo@overstock.com

We were advised by a Representive for Overstock on 1-15-10 that they stopped advertising with Limbaugh several years ago."

That's pretty recent! Thanks for asking!
