Liberty Media

Is related to Rush Limbaugh via Barnes and Noble. Tell their shareholders what you think. Bain Capital owns 45% of Clear Channel - Mitt Romney's baby.

It is time to start unraveling these hate-mongering outfits from their supporters. Do I suggest bringing Barnes and Noble down? No, but they had better quickly distance themselves from their parent company's beliefs... except that will expose them as financially supporting them.

Companies need to be broken up from these massive, horrific, dehumanizing conglomerations.

That's where they get hit. One arrow at a time.

Liberty owns around 17 percent of B&N, which doesn't make it the company's controlling or largest shareholder. If B&N is advertising on limpy, then by all means we should pressure them to cease, but I'm not sure how Liberty fits in.

Companies that are affiliated with Rush. Sorry, that includes Liberty media affiliates until the denounce his horrible comments.

Liberty Media is associated with calling women sluts and prostitutes if they testify before Congress for their friends that need hormonal medications under the insurance policies they pay for.
