<\/a>Then you get to this paragraph. “The upshot is it worked. The one-two punch of New York media calling up every agency, advertising agency, corporate advertiser, keeping lists of advertisers who stayed on and those who fled, worked. As a publisher of a center-right Web magazine, this is disturbing. It sets a very bad precedent about the power of advertiser pressure.”<\/p>\nWhen did this guy — when was he born? It didn\u2019t even happen to him and he\u2019s just now noticing how this works? “The one-two punch of New York media calling up every agency and corporate advertiser, keeping lists of advertisers who stayed on –” i.e., with O\u2019Reilly “– and those who fled, worked. As the publisher of a center-right magazine, this is disturbing. It sets a very bad precedent about the power of advertiser pressure and sends a message as an organization that you can essentially be blackmailed into getting rid of –” no kidding!<\/p>\n
Whoever this is has just awakened to a reality that\u2019s been around for decades here, and it\u2019s a one-way street. It never happens to people on the left. “Similar corporate pressure could easily bankrupt any for-profit, right-of-center publication which is one reason so many are gravitating instead to the security of nonprofit and not commercial, not selling advertising.” The big mistake — I\u2019m getting very, very close to the quicksand. Do you mind if I go there? The mistake being made here is that corporate America is not where this starts.<\/p>\n
This blogger believes it sets a very bad precedent about the power of advertiser pressure and sends a message, da-da-da-da-da, lists of advertisers who stayed on and those who fled. This does not start with the advertisers. They are the victims of the entire process themselves. They just happen to be the first people that get hit.<\/p>\n
The way this works is this. The New York Times runs a story, and the story talks about how valuable O\u2019Reilly is to Fox News and how much money O\u2019Reilly is generating, and this irritates everybody that reads the New York Times. They don\u2019t want to see this. They don\u2019t want to see how successful O\u2019Reilly is. They don\u2019t want to see how big Fox is \u2019cause they hate it. They hate Fox, they hate O\u2019Reilly, they don\u2019t want to see any of this. And the New York Times pounds \u2019em with how much money O\u2019Reilly is making, how much money he\u2019s generating for Fox, how powerful Fox is, and they see as they read this.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/NYTimesSHORT.jpg\")
And then the New York Times lowers the boom and points out that O\u2019Reilly is a serial whatever and has paid off $13 million to other women to shut up. There has to be an outlet for the anger. Then what happens is where the real story begins. And it is not that advertisers are reading the New York Times and going, “Oh, my God, I can\u2019t have my product there,” and they call their agency and say, “You get us out of there.” That is not how it happened. That is what they want you to think happens, but that\u2019s not how it happens.<\/p>\n
The advertisers are not taking the initiative here. The advertisers are themselves being inundated with what they think is tens of thousands of complaint emails and tweets from people they believe represent tens of thousands of legitimately angry citizens. When in truth it is a bunch of bots, Facebook bots and Twitter bots that may have been generated by no more than 10 people, made to look like tens of thousands. And that\u2019s all she wrote.<\/p>\n
When the advertisers are swarmed with that, if Fox, O\u2019Reilly, if the salespeople are not prepared, if they don\u2019t know what\u2019s going on, and if they can\u2019t hit these advertisers and explain what\u2019s happening to them and tell \u2019em to ignore it, that it\u2019s all part of an organized campaign and that these tweets do not represent real people.<\/p>\n
Because, you know, liberals, sponsors of O\u2019Reilly have been have you noticed many of them sponsor the Clinton Foundation? Many of them… There\u2019s a serial all edged rapist. I mean, you talk about sexual abuse? Bill Clinton\u2019s wife ran the bimbo eruptions units when he was in the White House to seek and find the women who might accuse Bill Clinton of sexual abuse (and other things) and destroy them. And advertisers never leave the Clintons, and donors never leave the Clintons. Why is that?<\/p>\n
Because donors and advertisers never receive massive numbers of complaint emails from all of these Twitter and Facebook bots. It\u2019s a one-way street, and… I don\u2019t mean to sound arrogant or condescending about this. But I\u2019m literally shocked that so few people literally know what happens here because they\u2019re not prepared to deal with it. O\u2019Reilly could have survived this. Weeeeeell, let… I say that with guarded… There are other factors involved here that you don\u2019t know about that might have made it impossible for O\u2019Reilly to survive.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/Rush-Photos-SMALL-017-300x300.jpg\")
And I\u2019m sorry to sound mysterious about that, but it\u2019s corporate intrigue. It all gets combined, nevertheless, and the result is what you see on TV today. It\u2019s nothing but a giant, full-fledged, manufactured smear — and don\u2019t forget where it started. It started in the New York Times. “No, Rush! No, Rush! It started with O\u2019Reilly.” It did? Well, that stuff\u2019s been going on (allegedly) for years. How come he\u2019s not gone ten years ago? It started with the New York Times, and then the other players pick up the ball when it\u2019s their turn to pick it up and run with it and do what they do.<\/p>\n
And this is what happens. O\u2019Reilly is not the first, and he will not be the last. But it still boils down to one thing: The left cannot beat Fox News in the arena of cable news. The media, the left cannot beat Fox News. The only option they have is to destroy it. Because they can\u2019t outcompete it as is evidenced by ratings day in and day out since 1996, when Fox debuted. The standard operating procedure for the left is not to level the playing field but to close it. It\u2019s to deny participation on the playing field, not level it. No tolerance. No fairness.<\/p>\n
Their objective is to destroy the opposition because they can\u2019t beat the opposition in the arena of competition where both entities are battling — and that would be, in this case, cable news. And it\u2019s a story here that has repeated itself. I\u2019ve been doing this over 25 years, and I\u2019ve seen this I don\u2019t know how many times. As I say again, it\u2019s not trying to be know-it-all-ish or any of that. But it really doesn\u2019t surprise me that as long as that has been going on there doesn\u2019t seem to be — other than in certain places (ahem) — a viable strategy to deal with it.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH:\u00a0 Okay.\u00a0 Back to the phones.\u00a0 Bill in Atlanta.\u00a0 Welcome, sir.\u00a0 Great to have you on the program today.\u00a0 How are you?<\/p>\n
CALLER:\u00a0 Thank you so much, Rush.\u00a0 When you were talking earlier about Bill O\u2019Reilly — and I was hoping you would address this issue — and I\u2019m the same age as you.\u00a0 The first one of these cases I can remember is Anita Bryant in the 70\u2019s, who was the spokesman for Florida orange juice, and they destroyed her career for coming out against gay rights.\u00a0 And this was at a time when the vast majority of public support was on her side, but it didn\u2019t matter.<\/p>\n
RUSH:\u00a0 Right.<\/p>\n
CALLER:\u00a0 So it just shows to me how a small very vocal group can wield outsized influence, as you were talking —<\/p>\n
RUSH:\u00a0 Well, look, that is a point.\u00a0 But in examining this — and this a fascinating aspect of it to me, and I\u2019ve delved into it, I\u2019ve had to, why does it work?\u00a0 And I know the answer to that.\u00a0 The small number of people are able to make themselves look, regardless of the era, like they are the vast majority, when they\u2019re not.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: So I checked the email during the break, and somebody asked me a question. I\u2019m glad I found this, by the way. I mean, you would not believe how many thousands of emails we get here just during the program. I\u2019m glad I found this. Somebody remembered the opening segment of the program and talking about this fiasco with O\u2019Reilly and Fox News, that I pointed out it all started not with O\u2019Reilly and whatever he\u2019s alleged to have done. This all started in the New York Times.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/BillOreilly-300x233.jpg\")
And somebody said, “What\u2019s the big deal about that?” Well, now, it\u2019s kind of obvious to me, but if it isn\u2019t, then I\u2019m happy to explain it. There are two aspects of it. The fact that it starts in the New… Why did the New York Times do the story? Out of the blue, they want to do a story on O\u2019Reilly or Fox with whatever number of payouts to women over…? Where\u2019d this come from? Nothing just comes out of the ether, folks. They\u2019re not sitting there at the New York Times waiting for ideas to pop into their heads and then one second some reporter says, “You know what?<\/p>\n
“I think I\u2019m going to do a story on what a sexual harasser Bill O\u2019Reilly is.” That\u2019s not how it happens. This is… The reason that it starts in the New York Times is important is because the second aspect is that corporate intrigue that I mentioned that is also behind this, and it\u2019s… (sigh) I don\u2019t work there, so I guess it\u2019s not any quicksand, but there is a battle for power going on there between sons of Rupert Murdoch and Rupert — and they are not conservatives, my friends.<\/p>\n
In fact, they are… What\u2019s the generation before Millennials? Is that what they…? X? Their friends are all liberal. Their wives. One of their wives works for the Clinton Global Initiative. One of the wives, when this New York Times story hit, says, “You can\u2019t keep the man on the air! You just can\u2019t. This is embarrassing. It\u2019s embarrassing to watch. It\u2019s embarrassing to Dad\u2019s company! You can\u2019t do this.” And the fact that the story ran in the New York Times was of such profound shock, sadness, and embarrassment, that they felt they had to do something.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s why the fact that it started on the New York Times is crucial. There are two reasons for it being important. The fact that it starts the Times not just appearing out of nothing, out of the ether. Okay, so you, here\u2019s the timeline. Story, New York Times. How long did it take before you started hearing about massive advertiser defections? Just a day, right? You think that was natural? No, this was a campaign, folks. That\u2019s why some of this is so frustrating to me, that even after all this time, these campaigns are not immediately spotted for what they are.<\/p>\n
And therefore, people are not able to deal with \u2019em.<\/p>\n
And this one should have been expected, given what\u2019s gone on the last two years there. They should have ready for this. But you see, the bottom line is they were. Fox is not… It\u2019s not gonna be the way it is for long. There\u2019s a massive… Well, I don\u2019t want to say “massive,” but there\u2019s a shakeup coming, and it\u2019s generational. It\u2019s generational and political. It\u2019s just like anything else: Nothing ever is constantly the same. There\u2019s change everywhere. But it\u2019s been amazingly easy. I mean, to sit from a distance and watch this, it\u2019s amazing how easy it appears, at least to me, that this massive and rapid transformation is occurring.<\/p>\n
BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n
RUSH: Leanne, as we head back to the phones, Chattanooga, Tennessee. Welcome to the EIB Network. How are you?<\/p>\n
CALLER: Well, thank you, Rush. It\u2019s an honor and I want to thank you for helping me about 15 years ago understand the difference between liberal and conservative and understand that I was conservative and why.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Thank you very much. I appreciate that. Really do.<\/p>\n
CALLER: But about O\u2019Reilly. I\u2019ve been almost bleeding from the eyes ever since all this junk started. The snowflake journalists, they\u2019re supposed to be strong women that can sit on TV and hold their own with anybody and argue back and forth. And certain ones, I think Shannon Bream, Martha MacCallum, Jenna Lee, others, I just love them to death. And I think they\u2019re strong enough to handle themselves. These little snowflakes who get boob jobs — excuse me — and hair extensions and —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Here it comes.<\/p>\n
CALLER: — false eyelashes and seven-inch heels —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Here it comes.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.rushlimbaugh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/540052654-199x300.jpg\")
CALLER: — and Spandex dresses and cutaway leather like they\u2019re going to a nightclub. And then when somebody takes the bait, it\u2019s, oh, they get all teary and run to a lawyer. Get over it. I mean, it\u2019s maddening. I used to work someplace where a man had a little gathering of women and they would tell off-color jokes. And the first time that happened —<\/p>\n
RUSH: Oh, you cannot do that, no, no.<\/p>\n
CALLER: No. You know what I did?<\/p>\n
RUSH: Even if she\u2019s wearing Spandex, hair extensions, and seven-inch heels, you can\u2019t tell the joke.<\/p>\n
CALLER: Well, where I worked this guy would do that, and I said, “Oh, that\u2019s not for mixed company,” and just walked away. And from then on he said, “Oh, I don\u2019t think Leanne\u2019s gonna like this one,” and I\u2019d know to leave. But if he had followed me to my desk and kept saying, “Hey, listen, this is good,” then, you know, I might have a reason to go to H.R. or something. But I can handle myself. And I think MacCallum and any of these women could say in a nice but firm, clear way, “Take a hike. I don\u2019t appreciate that.” But they get all teary, “I need a safe space. I\u2019m a strong journalist, but he said something that made me just feel so bad.” I mean, it\u2019s disgusting to me.<\/p>\n
RUSH: Well, here\u2019s the thing, Leanne, you have not, obviously — I\u2019m going to engage here in a bit of speculation — my guess is, because of your experience, as I am deducing from listening to you, and your age, you probably have not come under the influence or spell of the modern era of feminism. My guess would be that even when you have encountered it you\u2019ve rejected it.<\/p>\n
And yet you\u2019d be amazed at the number of women today who are the product, particularly if they are college graduates. They\u2019ve taken women\u2019s studies course. They\u2019ve been conditioned to think of men this way. They have been taught what to do if this kind of behavior they sense has been aimed at them. It\u2019s just different eras. You come from an era where a guy gets fresh with you and you slap him or you insult him and you send him away with his tail between his legs.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s a different era of how that\u2019s dealt with these days, particularly in business. I\u2019m glad you called. I really appreciate your perspective on this. I have to take a break, though, now. I\u2019m thinking of seven-inch heels, Spandex here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Let me ask you a question. Have you ever wondered why not a single left-wing media figure is ever the target of advertiser boycotts? Have you ever noticed that, and, if you haven\u2019t, please take notice of it, and then ask yourself, why? What in the world could explain the one-sidedness of this? How is it that a woman who is now out there berating Bill O\u2019Reilly as a subhuman dryball happily once dated Anthony Weiner and is currently on CNN giving commentary about this and many other things?<\/p>\n
