In the wake of a media and Internet firestorm following a call to action by the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) and coverage in The Huffington Post, which broke this story well before most major media outlets, several national advertisers have pulled their accounts from Rob, Arnie & Dawn in the Morning on KRXQ 98.55 in Sacramento.

For its part, the station has taken the broadcast down off the station's public website and removed its list of advertisers and sponsors.
