Carbonite, Rush Limbaugh, and Ed Shultz

Is this yet another example of the double-standard that exists?

Example: Mr Rush Limbaugh calls a young woman, Sandra Fluke a "...slut..." and a "...prostitute..."

Clearly, there's no excuse for that type of language. I don't agree with Ms Fluke's arguments, I don't agree with her reasoning, and I don't agree with how she's been treated ... by either side.

Mr Limbaugh was wrong to call her a slut. He has since apologized for it. Carbonite, through Mr Friend, stated that Mr Limbaugh had "...overstepped any reasonable bounds of decency." I'll agree with that.

But now, let us contrast this with what Ed Shultz called Laura Ingraham. He referred to her as a "...right-wing slut..." He then apologized for his remarks.

And yet, Carbonite continues to sponsor Mr Shultz's show.

Double-standard? After all, in using the same word and the same inflamatory remarks, didn't Mr Shultz also overstep any reasonable bounds of decency?

Just asking.

Perhaps Carbonite would like to explain the double-standard?

I'm listening.

And now, so are many many others. I've also contacted Mr Steve Gibson and Mr Leo LaPorte to see if they'll drop sponsoring Carbonite because of the double-standard.

HERE'S YOUR CHANCE, Carbonite: (make it good)
