      Looks like the advertisers are targeting Beck's viewers and consider them conservative, deadbeats, with little, bitty, tiny, male members.

      Oh, I shouldn't say that. Extenze and Enzite aren't on today's list.

          You're right. Beck's advertisers will come back.

          And Michael Vick's going to sign a big product endorsement deal.

          The advertisers are not boycotting Beck's show, they're fleeing.

      I wonder if that Allstate commercial had Dennis Haysbert in it.

        Obama has "exposed himself as a guy" with "a deep seated hatred for white people"

        Is that Allstate's stand?

          I#m not an internet-wizzard: Is it too complicated to make the list of advertisers into directlinks? Complains about the choise beeing just one click away...?

      Must me nice to have the entire girth of the media machine in your pocket so that you only have one channel to spread lies about right? I mean you have to be feeling salty right now that one simple channel and only a few hosts on it are getting your heroes fired and dropped in funding left and right. 500k a week loss for beck, 8 billion loss for ACORN. Ouch HAHA.

      Beck is only a target because he's been targeting communists and folks who condone child prostitution.

        That Beck says the President of the United States is a white-hating "racist" has nothing to do with advertisers' decisions.
