It was over another misogynistic comment by Limbaugh back in 2007:

CALLER: Oh, my goodness, I can’t believe you said that. I really can’t. We laugh at you all the time, but that was not funny. That was degrading to some women....

RUSH: ... I’m not going to apologize. People in my position never apologize.
