Is it time to boycott Rush's advertisers again?

[Generic Other]

Last time DUers wrote letters, several actually pulled their ads. Amtrak, for one. See's Candy, for another.

His advertisers got all twitchy when we reminded them of what they were underwriting--hate radio. That was before he was exposed as a drugaddicted criminal. Any of his advertisers likely to get nervous about being associated with such unsavory activities? Bet they would.

Anyone know who is still advertising on Rush's shows?

1. We really need a website that lists them all

So we know who not to buy from, and write letters to and let them know why.

2. rush's advertisers

That's what the dodo heads would try and do.

Just ignore him and he will go away!:)

5. This is the exact right thing to do in a capitalist society. :)

And we are a capitalist society, oui?

Makes it worthwile to listen to the blowhard, restrain yourelf and don't call in, and make a list of companys that advertise then send them a note explaining who will get your business instead. Shazaam capitalism works! Our company does well by being good to our employees, environment and community, I'd like to see more like it.

BTW- we are a small business founded by a woman with some brains. She got the county to help out in training women in technology. Go figure, jobs and more. Some have called her 'socialist' oh my.

6. Clarification: We've tried that with Rush...

Rush's audience is much larger than Savage's. And he's been on the air longer (I think. Don't quote me on that.)
He's a juggernaut in Right-wing talk radio.
But I suppose even the largest can be brought down.
