Limbaugh Radio Show Faces New-Media Backlash as Advertisers Flee

At least 29 companies have pulled their ads from the The Rush Limbaugh Show since the conservative talk show host called a law student a slut on the air last week, as the social media blitz against the popular radio program showed no signs of slowing down Tuesday.

.

Companies are continuing to join the rapidly growing list of businesses that have ceased advertising on Limbaughs show, responding to the flood of grievances that are pouring in from disgruntled customers.

.

The list of companies that officially announced on Twitter or Facebook that they would stop advertising on the radio show include: AccuQuote Life Insurance, Allstate Insurance, AOL, Bare Escentuals, Bethesda Sedation Dentistry, Bonobos, Carbonite, Cascades Dental, Citrix, Girl Scouts, Goodwill Industries, Hadeed Carpet, JCPenney, Legal Zoom, Matrix Direct, Philadelphia Orchestra, PolyCom, ProFlowers, Quicken Loans, Reputation Rhino, Sears, Sensa, Service Magic, Sleep Train, Sleep Number, St. Vincents Medical Center, Tax Resolution, Thompson Creek Windows and Vitacost.

Many companies explained that their ads had run on Limbaughs show inadvertently. A spokesperson for Goodwill Industries said in an email to POLITICO: A PSA about Goodwill was aired on a DC-area station that airs the Rush Limbaugh Show and was done without our permission, knowledge or consent. We asked them to remove it because this was done without our prior approval.

.

The communications director for the Girl Scouts of Oregon and Southwest Washington also said in an email Tuesday, Our decision to pull our advertising is due to the fact that current programming does not align with the Girl Scout mission. We were unaware at the time of purchase that our commercials would air during the program.

Limbaugh was condemned by members of the public and the media as well as elected officials after calling third-year Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke a slut and a prostitute last week. But in the immediate days following Wednesdays remarks, the radio personality had shown no signs of apologizing to Fluke as he continued his barrage against her on Thursday and Friday.

May I weigh in on this topic to assert that Rush is limbering into limbo.
