Rush Limbaugh Has Lost Over 100 Advertisers Since Calling Law Student A "Slut!" Syndicator Suspends National Ads!

Good!

The fallout for Rush Limbaugh's recent comments that a Georgetown law student and contraception activist Sandra Fluke was a "slut" and a "prostitute" for testifying before Congress about the health benefits of birth control pills is still going strong, and now, his syndicator, Premiere Networks, has withdrawn its national advertising spots from his talk show for two weeks!

According to an internal memo:

"We are suspending the requirement to run barter spots for two weeks, March 12th and March 19th, for our News/Talk affiliates only."

However, according to Limbaugh's spokesperson:

"Premiere Networks announcement does not involve the cancellation of any advertising, local or national, purchased within The Rush Limbaugh Show. The advertisers using this contractual relationship are not buying program sponsorships, but rather a fixed number of audience impressions on those radio stations. Premiere's announcement today temporarily stops placing these spots on Premiere affiliated local news-talk radio stations for the next two weeks. It does not affect national advertising in The Rush Limbaugh Show."

Is that right?

Because sources at Clear Channel, which owns Premiere networks, are reporting that 141 companies have asked that their advertising not air during his show, which includes 21st Century Insurance, (Read more...)

Rush Limbaugh Gives Half-Ass Apology For Calling Law Student A ‘Slut’

UGH.

Right wing radio host Rush Limbaugh is under fire for calling Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke a "slut" and "prostitute" after she came out in support of health insurers being required to offer birth control to their subscribers (watch above).

In case you missed it, these were his exact words last Wednesday:

"What does it say about the college co-ed Sandra Fluke, who goes before a congressional committee and essentially says that she must be paid to have sex, what does that make her? It makes her a slut, right? It makes her a prostitute."

Disgusting.

But, looks like he (kinda) had a change of heart after four of his sponsors, including LegalZoom and Quicken Loans, severed their ties with his show. He decided to "make amends" by posting the following half-ass apology on his website:

"For over 20 years, I have illustrated the absurd with absurdity, three hours a day, five days a week. In this instance, I chose the wrong words in my analogy of the situation. I did not mean a personal attack on Ms. Fluke.

I think it is absolutely absurd that during these very serious political times, we are discussing personal sexual recreational (Read more...)

MSNBC’s Ed Schultz Suspended For "Slut" Remark

Published on May 26, 2011 By

We find when you are hosting your own major cable news show, it helps to think before you speak. Perhaps that's something you'll want to keep in mind for the future, Ed!

Every day, Ed Schultz bring his own brand of political commentary to MSNBC on The Ed Show. This week, he let his opinions get the better of him when firing back at Laura Ingraham, a FOX News correspondent who criticized the President for visiting Ireland while Americans in Missouri were being killed and left homeless by the devastating tornado strike. In his tirade back to Laura, he said, ON AIR:

“President Obama is going to be visiting Joplin, Mo., on Sunday, but you know what [Republicans are] talking about, like this right-wing slut, what’s her name? Laura Ingraham? Yeah, she’s a talk slut. You see, she was, back in the day, praising President Reagan when he was drinking a beer overseas. But now that Obama’s doing it, they’re working him over.”

Misogyny's not a good color on you, Ed! You should've held your tongue.

Because of his outburst, Ed has now been suspended from the network and we hear he's even prepared to take himself off the (Read more...)

Stephanie Pratt Embraces Her Inner Ho!

Listening to Stephanie Pratt speak is like being stabbed repeatedly with thousands of FUG, meth-faced, tiny little knives.

Listening to Stephanie Pratt speak about being slutty with various men is like pouring kerosine on the previously mentioned knives stabbing you, and then lighting a match.

BARF.

The gutter troll recently opened up about her dumbass Twitter break-up with Josh Hansen, and revealed:

"I'm seeing two guys right now, and it's actually way more fun than seeing one guy. I've never done something like this before, but it's really quite lovely! It's not really 'single' life, but I'm way too young for relationships. I've decided I want to keeps things very light, and I've realized that guys are children! It trains them to ask for dates a lot earlier in advance. That's the most amazing part is that I've realized they can actually be trained. My perfect man is someone that wants to read a book in Hawaii. I want someone that doesn't want to be in Hollywood. I want someone who has their own deal, and who thinks that what I do is 'weird.' "

Oh, we're sorry, is what you say and do now supposed to be normal??

The Tangled Web Of Kate Hudson’s Gentleman Callers!

Wow! She sure is a massive slut player!!

Serial dater Kate Hudson is apparently playing THREE men at once, two of whom she started toying with when she was still with Alex Rodriguez!

The victims? Photographer Darren Ankenman, an unnamed Hedge-fund manager in El Lay, and Aussie golfer Adam Scott!

GEESH.

A source says:

"She was casually seeing both Alex and Adam at the same time, but she broke things off with Adam when she got serious with A-Rod. She recently got back in touch with Adam when he was in L.A., and they've been seeing each other. They've always gotten along really well."

And she moved in on Darren during production of her shiteous flick Bride Wars:

"They hit it off on the set, but nothing romantic happened until after she and Alex broke up during the winter."

Nothing wrong with trying out your options, but we hope girlfriend isn't bringing all these guys around to meet her kid!

Ryder doesn't need to be confused about which ones are his new daddies!!

"Michael used Grindr to send the message 'Hi there' and a picture of himself taken in a hotel room mirror to someone he liked the look of," says the source.

Can U just imagine coming across George Michael while perusing the app for a hook-up????
