>> “They have profited handsomely from you. These advertisers who have split the scene have done very well due to their access to you, my audience, from this program. … Now they’ve chosen to deny themselves that access, and that’s a business decision and it’s theirs alone to make. They’ve decided they don’t want you or their business anymore.

I'm surprised he would make a statement like this. I suppose he's decided to take on the boycott Limbaugh forces.

However, if I were spending money advertising on his show, this statement would give me pause.

Advertising to build a brand is an investment, not merely consumption. To have the potential for that investment to be undone due to a rift seems untenable to me given the huge amounts of money these guys have had to spend.

The comments about Fluke, no big deal. But taking away advertiser's gains, that could damage him.
