Carbonite stock is tanking.
The advantage Carbonite had over its competitors was their advertising with Limbaugh. The high profile way they dropped him has had two effects:
1. It pissed off many of their customers who were also Limbaugh listeners.
2. It provided visibility to their competitors who got lots of free advertising via the Internet by people who support Limbaugh.
Limbaugh will survive and thrive. Not so sure about Carbonite. Their financial situation has always been shaky, they have never made money and they have a negative cash flow. And now it turns out that their CEO is a Lefty.
