Rush Limbaugh Assailed By National Media !!!

[georjec2]

There is no war against women's rights. Just more manufactured propaganda from the Liar in chief.

Try convincing the million+ woman. It's gonna cost the GOP in November. There is a war on woman's rights. Everybody knows it it just that everybody doesn't want to admit it.

Romney is having and will continue to have a hard time with the women's vote.


Do you think Romney dyes his hair ?

Not very graceful but, fine; but as I said, "Under the circumstances I described and no other liberals always lie."

But the point being made was not ALL liberals lie. If you believe that than would it be fair to say ALL conservatives scream and call people names like Rush did? No, just like all liberals are not like Bill Maher. There is a spectrum of beliefs and people naturally fall on all parts of it. I am socially liberal and more fiscally moderate to conservative. This does not make me a liberal or a conservative that is why I label myself as an independent. I dislike the two party system and am only registered as a republican so I can vote in the primary which in most cases dictates who will be elected to the local offices that impact me the most.

Cumulus: Limbaugh boycott cost 'millions'


excerpt;


Cumulus Media CEO Lew Dickey said yesterday that the advertiser boycott against Rush Limbaugh cost his company millions of dollars in revenue for the first two quarters of the year.
"It hit us pretty hard," Dickey said during a call with financial analysts yesterday. "A couple of million bucks in the first quarter and a couple of million bucks in quarter two."
Dickey would not give exact figures, but said the "millions" accounted for "about one percent" of the roughly $245 million in first quarter revenues, and said he expected revenue to return to normal in June.
Cumulus owns just 38 of the 600 stations that air the Rush Limbaugh Show, which is nationally syndicated by Cumulus's competitor, Clear Channel Media. For its part, Clear Channel saw total revenues increase 6 percent the first quarter of 2011 to $671.5 million in the first quarter of 2012, according to MediaPost.

Why did he have 5 minutes of dead air time in a New York market of all places?

That was during the height of the controversy. Once the heat died down, and people stopped caring - which didn't take very long at all - almost all of those advertisers have now crawled back to the show.

That articles from the end of March - not even a month after the story broke. The public has the attention span of a gnat. We get real riled up over something, threaten boycotts, get some advertisers to listen....but then we go running after the next source of outrage, and once the coast is clear, those companies come back, and pick up right where they left off.

Exactly what happened. Great analysis. Thanks.

The Dems should send Rush a cake for pushing millions of fence sitting women over to the liberal side of the yard.


Thank You Rush !!! Nobody does it better !!!

Glad to have to see you back alive and kicking.

Limbaugh takes post-Fluke ratings hit


excerpt;

Rush Limbaugh took a significant ratings hit in some key radio markets last month in the wake of the Sandra Fluke controversy.

The conservative radio host's ratings fell 27 percent in the key 25-54 demo in New York City, 31 percent in Houston-Galveston, 40 percent in Seattle-Tacoma, and 35 percent in Jacksonville, according to a selection of the March 29-April 25 Arbitron ratings provided by an industry source.

Limbaugh's detractors attribute the losses to a rejection of the show following his controversial comments about the Georgetown law student.
