(1 post)Below are sponsors who advertised on The Rush Limbaugh Show on WMAL AM 630 (Washington D.C.) on Monday, March 5, 2012.
The key is to put on the pressure through the local advertisers.
There are very few local advertising availabilities on The Rush Limbaugh Show and they sell at a premium. Below is a list of companies that advertised on The Rush Limbaugh Show on WMAL AM 360 (Washington, D.C.) on March 5, 2012. Here's what to do:
1. Call the advertiser, be polite.
2. Write a letter to the advertiser, be polite.
3. Copy the station and the FCC with the advertiser letter.
4. Politely call the General Manager of the station,tell the GM what you are doing and why, tell them you have contacted the advertiser and copied the FCC.
5. If the local advertiser uses an agency, contact the agency, as well. Just ask the local business, if they use an agency.
It wont take many letters and phone calls to get their attention and remind the station that the letters need to be placed in the stations public file. (the public file is an FCC requirement)
Local stations dont get many local avails in Rushs show and many pay a huge fee to Premiere to run the show. If they start losing business, they will raise hell with Premiere.
