Consumer Sovereignty at Work

Bedding retailers Sleep Train and Sleep Number have pulled their ads from the Rush Limbaugh show due to his impetuous slurs against a young woman attending the Georgetown University Law School. Quicken Loans and Auto Zone withdrew shortly thereafter.
The Republican-controlled House had rejected the request of Democrats for Sandra Fluke to testify on the Obama administration’s policy requiring that employees of religion-affiliated institutions have access to health insurance that covers birth control. Fluke was later given a chance to talk to Congress on February 23, although lawmakers were on a break and just a few Democratic allies were on hand.

Fluke spoke of a friend who had an ovary removed because her school’s insurance company wouldn’t cover the prescription birth control she needed to stop the growth of cysts. She said that Georgetown, a Jesuit institution, does not provide contraception coverage in its student health plan and that contraception can cost a woman more than $3,000 during law school.

On Wednesday, Limbaugh unleashed a lengthy and often savage verbal assault on Fluke. The pretentious gold mic’d pulpit from which this bullying occurs is supported by a cadre of simpleton followers who consume the products and services advertised on his show. So far the most idiotic response, by a sponsor, to Limbaugh’s bullying was that of ProFlowers. No thinking man is going to use that service to send flowers to a woman unless, of course, she’s a pro.

The following list contains the contact information for sponsors that, for some reason, are currently running ads on Mr. Limbaugh’s low fidelity program.
