Leland Yee, who recently criticized Rush Limbaugh over the radio host's mocking impression of Chinese President Hu Jintao, is now calling for a boycott of the radio host's advertisers.
Today, Yee's office said it had received a fax that mentions Limbaugh and contains racist language and a graphic of a noose.
A couple of weeks ago, Yee's chief of staff, Adam Keigwin, said that a Pima County, Ariz sheriff's detective had questioned him about death threats that Yee had received connected to Yee's criticism of Sarah Palin last year. Keigwin said the detective was looking into a possible connection between those threats and the shooting of Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.
