Also worth bearing in mind is the fact Limbaugh made derogatory statements about this woman on three consecutive days, so his apology stating it was an off-the cuff remark gone awry doesn't exactly work.
But advertisers, who once fled Glenn Beck (abandoning him to hawk gold and then finally stranding him without a national outlet for his fringe viewpoint once Fox News said bye-bye) are heading for the hills or at least packing their bags. This time Limbaugh’s bile was too much for even them, especially when potential customers bombarded them with their outrage at Rush’s attacks.
Quicken Loans has pulled its ads saying in a Tweet: “Due to continued inflammatory comments– along w/valuable feedback from clients & team members– QL has suspended ads on Rush Limbaugh program.”
Sleep Number has also withdrawn its sponsorship with this Tweet: “Recent comments by Rush Limbaugh do not align w/our values, so we made decision to immediately suspend all advertising on that program.”
Legal Zoom tweeted: “Legalzoom has pulled all advertising from the Rush Limbaugh show.”
Citrix Systems has also pulled plug on Rush: “We have listened to our customers & have decided to cease our advertising on The Rush Limbaugh Show immediately.”
ProFlowers has written it is reconsidering its connection to the Rush Limbaugh Show, saying, “Rest assured, your feedback is heard. We heard about the comments and we will reevaluate our marketing plan.”
It was an over the top attack. Calling a private citizen a "****" because she has differing views is a low point. I posted earlier this would be Limbaugh's Waterloo and may even get him removed from the air if not handled correctly.

She wants taxpayers to fund her birth control, I'd say she's greedy and arrogant.
