Following Laura Schlessinger's racially charged rant, Media Matters called on advertisers to drop sponsorship of her radio program.

Last year, Media Matters reported on companies and organizations that had run ads on the hate- and conspiracy theory-filled programs of Glenn Beck, Lou Dobbs, and Rush Limbaugh despite appearing on a 2006 list of advertisers that reportedly didn't want their ads broadcast during Air America programs.

One of the companies we listed for Limbaugh's show was The Home Depot, which promptly insisted that it doesn't “support the Rush Limbaugh radio show.”

Exactly one year ago today, we posted audio proving that The Home Depot had in fact advertised on Limbaugh's show.
