      YES!! Yes-yes-yes-YES!!!

      When we little guys call for this kind of action, it has little effect I believe. But this kind of high-visibility put on these sponsors just might actually create much needed and deserved back-lash.

      Damn right this is going to hurt Beck...as it should. Beck crossed the line of reponsible political commentary. Bill Shine didn't issue that FOX disclaimer yesterday for nothing. Maybe we'll get to see Glenn cry again...or get drunk.

      How about elsewhere not on Fox?

      Beck should be fired.
      Rush is an idiot
      And NBC should be ashamed of themselves for letting Michelle Malkin speak on national television.

      I really hope Beck goes down for this... I have my doubts, but I would love to see him discover there was a line and he crossed it.

      Unfortunately Glenn Beck and Fox are not the only outlets playing up this garbage. This behavior is inflammatory, insidious, and border line treason.

      I don't think this will hurt Glenn Beck to be honest with you, the people who listen to him are just as backward as he is and they think he's a genius.

      Also, this coverage of him lately on MSNBC, Huffington Post, Media Matters and others have probably strenghthened his base and reminded them of the vast left-wing conspiracy that's taking over the nation.

      As much as I agree with most of what Deutsch said, the idea that corporate advertising departments don't know the content of the programs their advertising on is sheer folly.
      They know exactly where their dollars are being spent.

      I guess folk are going to see the truth now. White Supremacy has not died. The truth is there are those who hate the fact that they have to take direction from a white man. why dont we have a true discussion. Why wont The media take on Fox And The white supremacist Republican Party. We cannot get past racism in this country because everyone sugar-coates the true problem. The problem is not racism. Racism is only a tool used for the maintenance of white supremacy. White People as well as Black people belive that Whites are more intelligent, more trustworthy and more competent in all facets of societal responsibility. It bothers Whites at the core to place thier lives in Black hands. How many would choose a white doctor over a Black one, a White accountant over a Black one, A White owned bank over Black owned bank, a white investor over a black investor, a white school over a black school. The truth is in this country Black is second best. That is why beck and Lindbaugh and the blue dogs are barking. Who does he think he is? Mighty high on hisself aint he? Some one betta put dat booy in his place? How Sad? How insane?

      I have had it with right wing constant hate talk.On this website, please publish a list of sponsors of hate media. I am committed to stop buying there products. Sending email to these corporation is fine, but at the same time we need to boycott their products. Only when their sales start dropping is when they will do something.
