Tell Glenn Beck's Radio Stations That Beck's Vitriol Is Unacceptable
http://mediamatters.org/action/hitler_youth/?source=hitler_youthFB1

Glenn Beck may be off television but he's still spreading vicious, hate-filled rhetoric through his radio show, describing the victims of the Norway shooting as "a little like the Hitler Youth".

It's time for Glenn Beck's radio affiliates to hold Beck accountable. His fear-mongering and disdainful attacks weren't acceptable for television, and they're not acceptable for radio. Please sign the letter to radio stations explaining why Beck is unacceptable and bad for business.

Dear Glenn Beck Radio Affiliate,

By broadcasting Glenn Beck's radio program, you are promoting a show that airs deliberate misinformation, engages in the lowest form of fear-mongering, and launches vicious hate-filled attacks on innocent victims.

More at the link -- please SIGN this!

3. better yet....
look up a station near you and send their advertisers a message.sending a form letter won`t get the advertisers to pull their ads. what is effective is a letter or email from the people who actually may buy something from the advetiser.that has far more impact. radio ads are expensive and are not as effective as the radio salesperson says. i tried it once and 0 business for my money.

here`s glen`s radio affiliate map..see if there`s a station near you.
