I think we need a list of Beck's advertisers

[mdmc]

So if any of ya listen to him, please post the names of those that pay to keep him on the air..

I have only heard his once. I was scanning the stations on the radio and I thought I heard Cornell West. Someone was lecturing about FDR and it was utterly fascinating. The speaker was pointing out exactly in very specific terms the influence socialist had with FDR. While documenting these socialist cliques that had influence with FDR, the speaker as a second point outlined some radical socialist that had no influence with FDR and also how the republicans were essentially a racist, white supremacist political party with the exception of the moderates and liberals out west and in the north.
I was digging this lecture to the core..
Then it was interrupted by Glenn Beck and his co-host (if he has one - I don't know who the other person was). They had to stop the lecture to explain how important what the speaker was saying (admitting to) about socialist in the White House. They then had to go on to discredit the speaker as basically a loon for linking white supremacist to the GOP.
I was like "the speaker is absolutely correct on both assertions, yet this disco jockey stopped the taped lecture to cherry pick what was true and false about the speakers lecture for his audience". I turned it right off..

1. I think it's a pretty short list right now.

A lot of advertisers have already dumped him.

7. Call Fox Sponsors!

First of all, you've got to watch Fox with the sound turned off.

Then collect as many of the 800 numbers flashed on the screen from the sponsors and call them up.

Tell them you will never buy their fine product as long as their ads support the racist, sexist, and fascist people on Fox.

Explain, if necessary, what those terms mean and how they are unhealthy for our democracy.

The longer they talk and make no sale, the more their business is disrupted.

5. What good would it do right-wing Fox news loves his spewing & WILL keep Beck ranting

no matter how many advertisers Beck loses, even if he had none, Fox would accept the loss (and has) because they love Beck's neocon, anti-progressive hate messages he gets to all the republican sheep!

Beck has lost lots of major advertisers already and it didn't faze Beck or Fox one bit.

Beck is untouchable...Except to be mocked by the likes of Stewart, Maher & Olbermann - that's about the best that can happen.

Just live with it and DON"T WATCH!

Don't contribute to his ratings!

6. He has absolutely NONE< NADA< in GB

They ran a campaign to take the all away and they did. Murdoch has to carry the show. Now they are running a campaign to get him off the air in GB. Hope they succeed.
