A 7th advertiser backs away from Limbaugh's show after he calls law student 'slut'

 Conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh

NEW YORK - A flower company is the 7th advertiser to pull its ads from conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh's radio program in the wake of comments he made about a law student who testified about birth control policy.
ProFlowers said Sunday on its Facebook page that it has suspended advertising on Limbaugh's program because his comments about Georgetown University student Sandra Fluke "went beyond political discourse to a personal attack and do not reflect our values as a company."
The six other advertisers that have pulled ads from his show are mortgage lender Quicken Loans, mattress retailers Sleep Train and Sleep Number, software maker Citrix Systems Inc., online data backup service provider Carbonite and online legal document services company LegalZoom.
