...is sending nonspecific autoreplies to Limbaugh questions. The gist is that they have a policy not to advertise with political shows. Either this is a very new policy or they have some weaselly way of considering him just an entertainer. I asked for clarification, but have received none.

Anybody gotten anything clearer from them? I'm really not happy with the answer I got. You can see their response by emailing investor.relations@autozone.com and mentioning Limbaugh.

On edit: Autozone has been advertising with Limbaugh for a very long time, and has been unshakable in the face of other Rush-related controversies. If we can get them to commit to dropping him, it will have been a real coup.
