IT'S MORNING IN AMERICA! :-)

(That's the motto of Bill "Slots" Bennett's radio show)

Rush "Fats" Limbaugh has taken quite a few hits in the last week and as of now has lost at least 45 advertisers.  His show has gotten to be something of a joke because two sex sites,
Ashley Madison and SeekingArrangement, have publicly offered to place ads on his show.  This is one of the few times I can honestly be grateful to Old Mean White Fundie Wacko Pat Robertson:

Televangelist Pat Robertson on the 700 Club today attacked Sandra Fluke’s testimony at a Democratic hearing, after she was barred from speaking at a GOP-led committee, in support of making religiously-based institutions like universities cover contraception in their insurance plans.

I wonder if Fats appreciates the backup?

Some in the industry think Fats should take a few days off but others are pure wingnuts like this guy:

Then there's Jim Coursolle, owner of Heartland Communications. He tells Dial Global "I appreciate the fact that you are honoring your customer's wishes" - but says "I believe that the boycott of Mr. Limbaugh's programming by advertisers, or even programming providers, is a violation of the Bill of Rights." Coursolle says "we in the broadcasting industry must be extremely careful not to participate in any action that is contrary, or even perceived to be contrary, to the Bill of Rights and freedom of speech." The ad blackout covers “all paid units, makegoods and bonus weight” for AutoZone.

All this means is that Coursolle doesn't understand the Bill of Rights.

And here's a little dessert: The band RUSH and Peter Gabriele are demanding that Fats no longer use their music.
