Every day of the week, Rush Limbaugh spreads hatred and misinformation. His latest? Attacking Georgetown law student Sandra Fluke who testified before Congress on behalf of supporting basic health care for all women in the United States. Limbaugh called her a “slut” and a “prostitute,” because she is an advocate for contraception without a co-pay.
I’ve had more than enough. Have you? @ProFlowers is one of many national advertisers for Limbaugh’s show. @ProFlowers has said it will “communicate with Limbaugh’s producers” about his vile comments. This is not enough. Its not just one thing with Limbaugh. He is a demeaning hate machine.
Ultimately, his advertisers have a responsibility for what they support.
Tell @ProFlowers to STOP advertising with Limbaugh.
