Rush Limbaugh Sponsors "Begging To Come Back"

Yeah, that is what happens when you have 20+ million listeners.
Yeah, they're getting a 'screw you.'
A Limbaugh spokesman said that California mattress company Sleep Train asked to restart a "voiced endorsement" from Limbaugh that it had publicly cut off last week. The company said at the time that it "does not condone such negative comments toward any person."…
Sleep Train's departure from the program had been billed by some observers as particularly significant because the mattress retailer had been with Limbaugh show for 25 years. Yet the tone of Sleep Train's withdrawal statement last Friday hinted it might not be pulling out for the long run…
Limbaugh spokesman Brian Glicklich on Thursday forwarded a copy of an email that he said had been sent to Sleep Train Chief Executive Dale Carlsen. In it, Glicklich wrote that Limbaugh had personally received the company's requests to resume advertising on his show.
"Unfortunately," Glicklich wrote, "your public comments were not well received by our audience, and did not accurately portray either Rush Limbaugh's character or the intent of his remarks. Thus, we regret to inform you that Rush will be unable to endorse Sleep Train in the future."
Rush talked about this on his show this week, stating that two sponsors had already asked to return and that "one of them is practically begging to come back." The little liberal campaign that the lefties are running is cute right now, but it will backfire. It seems every few years they launch a nationwide campaign against Limbaugh and it ends up going nowhere real fast. I don't care if MSLSD talks about Rush all day long, no body cares about them and Sandra Fluke is a media-whore and now an icon for the left.
