LifeLock Still Clinging to Limbaugh

The LifeLock company has not made any statements regarding their sponsorship of Rush Limbaugh: nothing on their site, nothing on Facebook, nothing Twitter!

It's time for them to respond. Tell them if they respect women then they must end their sponsorship of this windbag!

Call or email the following: Tami Nealy, Senior Director of Corporate Communications (call 1-480-457-2127 or email tami@lifelock.com).

Go get them!

We use your product but not for long if you follow through and drop Rush! Can all the people urging you to drop him say the same?

Lifelock. Protect your reputation, unless you are a woman, in which case we will sponsor someone to smear you.

Actions truly do speak louder than words, and your actions say that you approve of what Rush Limbaugh says. Here's hoping you're feeling it where it obviously counts for you, in the wallet.

‎LifeLock you support his views everytime you pay to help keep them on the airwaves. That is exactly what advertising is and does. How can you not understand that?"
You could learn from Carbonite Online Backup's handling of this. It's time to stop supporting hateful rhetoric.

‎... forgive me if I find no humor in any of this, excuse me if I take no part in celebrating the loss of sponsorship for that pig's radio program. You see, my 16 year old daughter came home from school on Friday in tears and has been in a state of utter despair since. She was told, in no uncertain terms, that she is a slut, a prostitute, a horny piece of trash that is out to sleep with every guy ...See More

copied this post because it expressed my feelings so well)
You show what you support by where you spend your advertising money. That's your right. Actually, I do the same thing when I choose who do business with. That's my right. This is not about politics. I am willing to do business with people who don't share my political point of view. I am not willing to do business with people who fund hate speech, as you clearly have chosen to do, so far.

Drew Peterie Dan, you are so on point with that statement. Rush Limbaugh's anti-woman tirades are appalling, and I am calling on Lifelock to stop supporting him with your advertising dollars

You say the comments of Mr. Limbaugh do not reflect LifeLock. They certainly do, since LifeLock is paying him to say them. If that is not an endorsement, I don't know what is.

However, Lifelock should recognize that Rush Limbaugh is a sinking ship.
