FYI to all who read the blog the other day about ProFlowers, they did, in fact pull their advertising from the Rush Limbaugh show. And they posted the following comment on our blog, so we wanted to honor their decision by passing it along to all our readers.
PROFLOWERS STATEMENT
At ProFlowers, our mission is to delight our customers with fresh and long lasting flowers, and that is our singular focus each and every day. We do not base our advertising decisions to align with any particular political view or opinion as our employees and customers are as diverse as the USA. Mr. Limbaugh’s recent comments went beyond political discourse to a personal attack and do not reflect our values as a company. As such, ProFlowers has suspended advertising on The Rush Limbaugh radio program.
