Sandra Fluke: Rush apology doesn’t change anything

Published March 5, 2012 5:00am ET



On the View this morning on ABC, Sandra Fluke did not appear willing to accept Rush Limbaugh’s apology issued over the weekend for calling her “a slut” on his program.

“Well, let me just say this, and I encourage everyone to look at the statement in its entirety online but what I have to say is that I don’t think that a statement like this issued saying that his ‘choice of words was not the best’ changes anything.” said Fluke, when asked by Barbara Walters if she accepted the apology.

“Especially when that statement is issued when he’s under significant pressure from his sponsors who have begun to pull their support from the show.” she added.

When asked if she wanted Rush Limbaugh fired, Fluke said she would “leave that up to the sponsors, to Clear Channel Communications and to the members of the American public who support those companies.”

“Americans have a long tradition of supporting companies that share their values that they have and i’m sure that they will continue to uphold that tradition.” she added.
