Five minutes of dead, ad-free air on Rush today



The Rush Limbaugh slut scandal just got a little weirder.
While Rush said just yesterday that everything “is cool” with this business side of the show — never you mind about those dozens of advertisers who have left — there were 5 minutes of dead air on the show Thursday. And no, not intellectually dead, we’re talking stone cold silence. You know, in a place on the program where advertisements might appear. As one tally had it, 77 of the 86 ads that ran on El Rushbo’s show today were free ads, sponsored by the Ad Council.

Gosh, maybe calling women sluts and prostitutes, referring to feminists as "feminazis", and asking to watch a woman have sex is seen as something less than gentlemanly?

Maybe even a little less than manly?

you realize there are local/regional ads in addition to EIB ads that comprise what any given station hears right ? if a given station opted to run dead air that was their choice.

Yes, I understand that. Why would any radio station make such a choice?
 
Gosh, maybe calling women who had engaged in sluttish behavior and demanded that others pay the costs of doing so sluts and prostitutes, referring to feminists as "feminazis" as Limbaugh has done for 20 years with an ever increasing advertiser lineup, and asking to watch a woman have sex is seen as something less than gentlemanly?
Fixed it for you.

Rush said it amounted to a couple of frenchfries. Also, two of his sponsors found some blowback when their stock dropped after they announced they wouldn't advertise. They asked to come back and Rush said thanks, ut no thanks. He said he's picked up new advertisers too.

Rush is also on 600 channels.

it was a San Fran article I'm guessing that means the San Fran station. just because a station runs the show does not mean they like it. the engineer may have had to dart to the little engineer's room to see a man about a horse. but the real answer is who knows.

Fema-nazis are horrid beasts of people and they don’t even deserve to be in the same gender class as normal women. I am glad Rush calls them out on their hypocritical crap.



I listen to Rush every day when was this silence you speak of?





Yeah mean Rush what he said is so much worse than Bill calling Sarah Palin a cunt and the really funny joke about Sarah Palin’s down syndrome son. That one was so funny!



And we can’t forget the huge list of other foul things bill has said about conservative women to date.



What Rush said is so much worse than Saturday Night Lives joke about Sarah Palin’s husband having sex with his daughters.



I canceled my carbonite when they said they would cancel Rush, I wish I had bought one of those sleep number beds so I could cancel that too :)





Rush unlike Bill apologized for what he said… twice that I know of



Personally I do wonder how many guy’s she does in a night to need 3k in condoms. There is only 365 days in a year ya know!

I think the dead are is something else. Some local stations are doing Ashley Madison ads on Rush's air time slot and Rush said he contacted the stations and told the stations that if there is an Ashley Madison ad during his 3 hour show please do not air the ad.

I am in communistic socialistic Eugene and we had no dead air!
 
It is interesting to read how many people actually think it's OK to call women sluts.

What do you call a man who sleeps around?

Man whore

:)


But you know what is funny.... I dont think anyone here thinks its ok to call women sluts except perhaps you... and only if its someone you dont like, perhaps a conservative woman??

I never saw you post about bill calling Sarah Palin a cunt or any of the other things he said about her or Michelle B. Its only when its said against people you want to protect do you seem to take issue, just like a liberal but your not a liberal right?

Why didn't you start a thread about Bill and Sarah Palin, then?

Do you expect me to start threads about every subject?

and I'm the one who started this thread about a MCP who called a woman a slut and suggested that he deserved to watch her have sex and lost advertisers due to his insensitive remarks. In what parallel universe does that mean I think what he said is OK?

I started a thread about SNL doing a skit about Todd Palin having sex with his daughters. Typical replies, people on the right thought it was bad and Bunz and people on the left said it was humor and I was over reacting.

If I had to start a thread for the HUNDREDS of times that people on the left did this sort of stuff I wouldn't be doing much else.

So, if the "left" does it, then the "right" needs to do it too. It's the "those guys over there did it too" argument.
It only makes a difference when you see the world in two dimensions.
