They and their music went progressive, conservatives stopped listening. Pretty simple. They didn't call on the execs and their sponsors to drop them, and also demand they be deplatformed.

Many American country music listeners supported the war, and Maines's remark triggered a backlash in the United States.[42] The Dixie Chicks were blacklisted by thousands of country radio stations,[43] and the band members received death threats.[44] Maines issued an apology, saying her remark had been disrespectful; in 2006 she rescinded the apology, saying she felt Bush deserved no respect.[43] The backlash damaged sales of their music and sales of their next album and tour.[45]

The same year, the American Red Cross refused a $1 million promotional partnership from the Dixie Chicks.[47] The organization did not publicize the refusal; it was revealed by the Chicks themselves in a May 2006 interview on The Howard Stern Show on Sirius Satellite Radio.[48] According to National Red Cross spokesperson Julie Thurmond Whitmer, the band would have made the donation "only if the American Red Cross would embrace the band's [2003] summer tour".[49] Whitmer further said: The Dixie Chicks controversy made it impossible for the American Red Cross to associate itself with the band because such association would have violated two of the founding principles of the organization: impartiality and neutrality ... Should the Dixie Chicks like to make an unconditional financial donation to the American Red Cross, we will gladly accept it.[49]
