Limbaugh Boycott Collapsing

[red states rule]

Like all the political props used by the Dems, Sandra is now a distant memory

Meanwhile Rush is still the King of talk radio

and Dems are so pissed off about both

Liberals thought their fondest dream had come true on Feb. 29, 2012, when weekday radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh referred to Georgetown University Law Student Sandra Fluke as a “slut” and a “prostitute” after she testified the week before to House Democrats in favor of forcing insurance companies to pay the full cost of contraceptives.

Democrats quickly urged sponsors to boycott the conservative icon's program, and that hurt advertising for the rest of the year. But Limbaugh's distributor -- Dan Metter -- said on Thursday that the radio host is not only drawing new advertisers, but he's also welcoming back a number of long-time sponsors.
Metter, senior vice president and director of talk radio sales for Premiere Radio, told the Talkers New York 2013 conference that the boycott -- which he referred to as simply “the challenge” -- led the company to focus its efforts on getting ads from entrepreneurial-based companies not handled by major agencies, including LifeLock and LegalZoom.

They’re not buying an ideology, they’re buying an audience. And many of them are advertising with our progressive radio hosts and our conservative radio hosts and everything in the middle.

He then stated that companies are buying advertisements “because their audience buys tractors, their audience drinks soda, and their audience needs data backup. And that’s the place to get those types of customers. So we’re doing very, very well.”

we all knew it wouldnt last... While I am not a huge fan of Rush, I think that the whole issue was ridiculous in the fact that it had no chance of success from the start. Rush has been on 20 years and is the biggest name in Radio, he commands market shares the others just dont have.

Thats what the sponsors are buying.... his Demographics... and there are a lot of people in them!

I also remember years ago how the liberal media was giddy over Air America was going to be the left's answer to Rush

The NY Times gave it front page coverage before it even went on the iar

Of course there was not much coverage when Air America went belly up and signed off the air

Even when they are losing they still bellow they are winning

Gabby, LR, and FU remind me of the people left on the Titanic who refused to believe the ship was sinking. Only when the water reached their lower lip did they think they were in trouble

Libs like them have always wanted to silence Rush and get his show off the air. On the one hand they dismiss Rush as an "entertainer" and not someone to take seriously. And on the other they rant over what he says (often using only part of what he said) and paints him as the leader of the Republican party

Yet these same libs have nothing to say about left wing radio hosts who openly hope their political opponents and those who have a different opinion DIE
