BOYCOTT KRMG Their Sponsors and Advertisers!!!!!

[Teatownclown]

I've been saying this for years....not only KRMG but also their sponsors. Trash them all. What goes around comes around...

How do you find out? Use a site called fccinfo.com, which accesses FCC records. Punch in the call letters, click on the callsign, and then scroll down to the box marked "Licensee Information." If it says "CC Licenses" or "AMFM" or "Capstar," with an address in Tulsa or San Antonio, you're looking at Clear Channel. If it says "Radio License Holdings" or "Citadel" with an address in Las Vegas or Atlanta, it's really Cumulus. But if it's a local address, you're in luck. Your station is a prime target to be de-Rushed.http://www.dailykos.com/story/2012/03/02/1070410/-How-to-take-action-against-Limbaugh-at-the-local-level?via=siderecent

I will be getting rid of my car because I will no longer let Don Carlton service my needs as long as they support Rush. Also, Bonefish Grill sucks....These other yahoo sponsors I'd already identified and black listed. YOU SHOULD TOO! more exposure of advertisers who divide our country to come....please help list advertisers on KRMG here and get the word out.
DO NOT CATER TO HATE AGAINST YOUR FELLOW AMERICANS!

I appreciate knowing what particular advertisers select that time period or program to place their advertising. But that is ALL they are doing is placing their advertising to reach a nameless demographic. It would be erroneous, and I think, just as foolish to assume that they believe in the content of that program unless they pointedly include that in their messaging. It is a good tactic to catch the attention of an advertiser with a boycott in order to hurt the program but that works both ways. Most advertisers know that, try to stay non political and are hard to bump off of effective advertising.

Just want to make the point that there is a difference between a business that champions the cause of a program by aggressively following the program no matter what its effectiveness might be (a ditto head advertiser) vs. one that merely is trying to reach white, middle aged, fat guys who don't like college educated, uppity women, pointy headed liberals etc.

What do the numbers in front of the advertiser mean?

[Teatownclown]

It may be the number of "spots".

I don't catch your drift, AM. Hate speech is adding to the classlessness of our great Country. This divisiveness needs to be halted.

just another example of going backwards...



There was a time when spewing hate on the airwaves was prohibited.....then the haters bought the stations.

What an idiotic idea.

[nathanm]

What, you think people who don't like misogynist drug addicted pricks known for engaging in sex tourism who can't even understand the concept of how birth control pills work or how insurance works should support misogynist drug addicted pricks known for engaging in sex tourism who can't even understand the concept of how birth control pills work or how insurance works? Or is it that people who don't like misogynist drug addicted pricks known for engaging in sex tourism should just sit down and shut up and let them take over the country's discourse?

Although if Rush and his Republican buddies leaping to his defense really want to keep making birth control an issue in the coming election I guess I shouldn't complain too loudly. The country is firmly on the other side of that particular issue, after all.

There was a time when spewing hate on the airwaves was prohibited.....then the haters bought the stations.

Take Pepsi for instance. Pepsi sees its product as appealing to many different sets of consumers. They don't just advertise on conservative talk radio shows. They look for listeners, readership, consumer patterns and then advertise in those media. KRMG apparently has a strong following and represents potential Pepsi buyers at an affordable cost. It would take loads of negative boycott activity to knock them off a high rated program time slot. Even then Coca Cola would jump right in and probably pay less to reach those same people who may in turn boycott Pepsi. Smart companies don't play those games, they don't choose sides. For instance, Nelson Nissan used to advertise solely using OSU themes, as I gather he is an OSU fan, but found out it incensed TU and OU fans. They saw that and changed their ads. Meanwhile, KRMG isn't leading Tulsans to their station by carrying Rush, they are capitalizing on an existing density of Rush type listeners. Frightening isn't it?

I like Pepsi, nonetheless, if I saw Pepsi start to utilize Rush or his negative tone in their advertising, I would immediately drop the product from my list of preferred soft drinks. I hope Pepsi, Carlton et al starts to do research on their buyers and realizes that we think less of them for advertising on lunatic radio shows.

I do agree with you that it is a powerful tactic but should be focussed on KRMG, not their product advertisers. Once the bad press and the declining ratings start to impact the station's revenue, you can bet they'll adjust their programming.

[dbacks fan]

The local advertiser are paying KRMG for their airtime, they are not paying Limbaugh. KRMG use the money from local advertisers to pay for the program. Boycot the station not the advertisers.

Why should it not be focused on the advertisers? They are, after all, the ones paying KRMG's bills. Get enough of them to tell KRMG not to run their ads during the misogynist prick's show and they'll drop the show because they can't sell enough ads to pay for it.

There is one issue with all this, though. The extreme focus on Limbaugh is letting those who expressed their support for his comments off the hook. The best Romney (the supposed moderate) could do was say "that's not the language I would have used." Remember, this is a guy Limbaugh said wasn't a "real conservative." Despite that, he still refuses to express his disapproval. Santorum said Limbaugh was "being absurd" and let him off the hook by saying he's just "an entertainer."

Perhaps some of you are old enough or familiar enough with history to remember how JFK caught a lot of flak for being Catholic. Supposedly he was going to be beholden to the Pope or something. Well, this field of yahoos is actually beholden to Limbaugh, not just theoretically, but they show it with every statement they make about him. A few called out his racist remarks about Obama in 2008, but then went back and apologized. It reminded me of Cheney getting an apology from the guy he shot in the face.

[AquaMan]

Nathan, this city loves the guy like they love Inhofe. Those who don't often sympathize with his views but not his methods or they call him "entertainment".  Advertisers know that. What you and TT propose is changing the direction of the lead dog by pulling on the tails of the rest of the pack.

If you can find enough passionate, fearless people to stand up and fight like they did against the Komen foundation, then I would indeed be very proud of Tulsa. I'm doubtful that would happen.

[sgrizzle]

I can't stand Rush, but I like many other people on the station. I just talked to Joe Kelley a few minutes ago after driving by Don Carlton Honda. I didn't see any reason to fling eggs at either one of them because I don't like Rush

I don't think anybody is talking about flinging eggs. But given a choice between, say, car dealers, I'll pick the one that doesn't have their ads run during Limbaugh's show. Just like given a choice between fast food restaurants I don't pick Chick-Fil-A, despite it being quite agreeable to my palate. I hope they'll someday stop being strong financial supporters of anti-gay bigotry.

Advocating conservatism and conservatives in the political sphere is one thing. I'm not going to stop patronizing a business because they give money to Republicans. I am, however, emphatically not OK with my money supporting misogyny and discrimination, so I choose not to patronize businesses that lend their financial support to such shenanigans (when I am aware of it and have a choice, anyway).

Being a free country, everyone else is welcome to make their own decisions on this sort of thing.

Rush must be feeling the heat from his advertisers.   He issued an apology to Ms. Fluke today.

Rush Limbaugh apologizes to law student for "insulting" comments

(Reuters) - Conservative talk-show host Rush Limbaugh, facing heavy criticism for branding a law student a "slut" over her remarks on President Barack Obama's new policy on contraception, apologized on Saturday.

The furor prompted Obama to call the Georgetown University student, Sandra Fluke, on Friday to express his support.

"My choice of words was not the best, and in the attempt to be humorous, I created a national stir," Limbaugh said in a written statement. "I sincerely apologize to Ms. Fluke for the insulting word choices."

[AquaMan]

Yeah, he apologizes for the word choices, but not the sentiments the words conveyed.

[cannon_fodder]

If you use birth control you are a slut... how many kids does Rush have?
