2. The problem with this is that some sponsors
sign up with advertising packages that then decide where their markets are. (I realize this is no valid excuse, but when I contacted one advertiser years ago, this was the response I got.)

The advertisers vary. Some are national, and some are local, based on the market. The national ones for years have been those advertising Gold Bond Medicated Powder and hair plugs for men, but there are more specifically targeted, local advertisers as well, based on "packages" that are sold to advertisers.

It's greed over principle. As long as these advertisers are making money off of Limbaugh's misinformed audience, THEY JUST DON'T CARE.

4. That list is over 4 years out of date.
"Here is the List of current Rush Limbaugh advertisers as of 10/28/04" and the link that they say is up to date is even more out of date (2/26/03)

5. I know General Motors advertises on the OxyRush Hatefest regularly.



And on Hannity's show too.
