After calling Barack Obama a "racist" who "has a deep-seated hatred for white people" on a Fox News show, a coalition of black bloggers went after the controversial talk show host, causing Procter & Gamble and other advertisers to pull ads from Beck's talk show, Mediabistro's TV Newser reports.
The Examiner wrote that an orchestrated campaign resulted in 100,000 complaints to Fox News execs.
TV Newser writes that the advertising pulls aren't effecting the network's bottom line:
A Fox News spokesperson told TVNewser that the advertisers simply moved their spots from Beck to other programs on the network, "so there has been no revenue lost."

hmmm. The truth hurts!
ReplyDeleteThe MSM doesn't acutally care about people's concerns or attitudes. The corporations who advertise don't care either. They do however, pretend to care.
ReplyDeleteThey are laughing at us. Can you hear them?
I hope it affects his income, the man needs to go away.
ReplyDeleteWell Obama did attend a racist church all those years & he didn't even know his preacher was racist imagine that. Beck calling like he sees it.
ReplyDeleteA bunch of crybabies!
ReplyDeleteWhen President Bush was in office, there were many, many slanderous accusations levied against him that had no basis in fact. Where was the outrage then?
Liberals represent the height of hypocrisy.
Beck needs to go away for good.
ReplyDeleteCross the DEMS and look what happens. According to the MSM a group of DEMS is a protest and a group of Conservatives is a mob.
ReplyDeleteHypocrisy-if the situation were reversed Beck would be applauded by critics.He is a little out there but he makes some great points.
ReplyDeleteAnd our President is the worst kind of racist,a self-hating one.
Hypocrites, what did they or Obama do to the Black man who was viciously beaten and insulted by Union Thugs in St. Louis. They put that poor man in a wheel chair for crying out loud. i know there is a video of it on You tube.
ReplyDeleteThere will always be racism, as long as people continue to point out someones race. As long as there is BET TV, Hispanic TV, you will continue a divid. Only and Only when we can unit as one people without pointing out race, can racism begin to die. Now culture is comething total different. Speaking of culture and ones upbring has nothing to do with race.
ReplyDeleteWe all need to start calling those advertisers and tell them we will boycott if they *pull* the ads from Beck's program.
ReplyDeleteLet's see who has the greatest power--those who watch the Glenn Beck show, or those who only complained because someone told them to.
Hey 11:52- thens lets be fair- If Beck goes- then Begala, matthews,olbermann,maddow,blizter,
ReplyDeletecouric,williams,gibson and carville and a whole bunch of others need to go to. Because they are far more racist and leftist than anything Beck has ever said. When people like Beck point out the obvious, the liberal left and their "ruin" America mentality just can't stand it. Even though they profess their the party of "tolerance". What hypocrites!!!
I am no fan of Beck, but I will say that if this group has this much pull, there are bigger causes that will advance the black community that they could be using their clout to advocate for.
ReplyDeleteThe first amendment only applies to liberals, as soon as you all figure that out, the better off you'll be!
ReplyDeleteCan anybody REALLY tell me how Obama is racist?
ReplyDelete-you point to his "a typical white person": well yes, the typical white person has prejudice thoughts, just like a typical black person
-you point to the church: this church and it's activities, which directly benefitted many black people and help them to make some positive changes for themselves, was way bigger than the 20 second sound bite from Wright.
-The president has not been out there advocating for "black" issues; he's been pushing for initiatives that benefit us all
Would just like to hear some honest points of view from logical thinking people; idealogues need not respond
In recent times it has always been the blacks that are the racist. They bring it up in every incident. I am in law enforcement.
ReplyDeleteeven when just telling them to move on. They play the race card. I
even heard them call a black officer a racist just because he was doing his job. It gets tiresome after a while. Just stop if you are wrong you are wrong and race has nothing to do with it. It is because you were breaking the law not because of your color. We do the same thing no matter if you are balck, white, green or yellow.
libs get PO'd because they "own" the race card and don't want to share it.
ReplyDeletelook at they cry about the guy legally carrying, but, nothing was said about the black panthers and then the charges were completely dropped.
it's the liberal democrat double standard. It's quickly coming to a head and about to pop and it's not going to be pretty. It will be less welfare checks and gov. cheese distributed when it's over.
The way thing are today all races will blend as one someday in the future. Drop the race card and get over it. It is the government aid that keeps this crap alive.
ReplyDeleteGlen Beck is great! I love the guy. He is smart, sincere and honest. He is a breath of fresh air in a world of hypocrites.
ReplyDelete3...2...1..BECK!
But Obama is a racist!
ReplyDeleteThis is misleading. It's not just black bloggers. It's the entire liberal blogosphere. you play the race card when you say it's only black bloggers. Also, a boycott is a prime example of exercising your 1st amendment rights. When did conservatives start hating the 1st amendment? oh, yeah, all the time. I forgot.
ReplyDelete12:41, unfortunately we do have some dumb @$$es in the black community who scream racist when they know they have done wrong. That does not invalidate legitimate claims of racism from others.
ReplyDeleteIs there a list of advertisers who wanted to be pulled from FOX? I would like to know because I will no longer use they're product !
ReplyDeleteWhat an a$$.
ReplyDeleteIs there a list of advertisers that want to be pulled from FOX? I would like to know because I would like to start buying their products!
ReplyDeletefox news we distort, you obey.
ReplyDelete12:39
ReplyDeleteWell lets talk about calling the policeman that arrested the black proffesor stupid. I know he said he acted stupidly, same difference. The cop was white, therefore it dealt with race, making it racist.
Beck is an idiot, and anyone who cannot see that is really foolish. He is a big crybaby, literally.
ReplyDelete12:39, to whos defense did Obama come to without even knowing the facts in the Gates case. Obama automatically called the cops stupid because they arrested a black man. Obama addmitted he didn't even know the facts, so I would call that an example of racisim. It's always a double standard with the libs.
ReplyDeleteObama stated the cop "acted stupidly" because he arrested a man on his own property who posed no physical threat to the officer, himself, or the nieghborhood. Gates was arrested for being an @$$hole; that WAS stupid. You may choose to agree or not but that isn't racist. Obama also aknowledged a long history of racial profiling that is only a step or two below police brutality among many black people. But I forgot, it is racist to talk about history, even recent history.
ReplyDelete1:56 you are a racist propagandist who hates freedom of speech .
ReplyDeleteBeck has a great show and has a center position he criticized Bush as much as Obama as of late he has been hard on this administration and rational Americans agree.This is the most extreme President we have ever had and yet know the least about. Obama is a racist based on his own words and his cronies.
ReplyDelete3:21, not sure you even know what all that means. What propaganda was in my comment. Man can say anything he wants as it is a free country. Besides he is making clips on the Daily Show almost everday for the stupid things he says. Can't argue with a good laugh!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a surprise to find some Biblethumping Glenn Beck lovers here.
ReplyDeleteCan you TV handle any other channells other than FoxNews?
He laughs at himself when was the last time you did that as we all laugh at your comments. BTW can you handle anything besides MSNBC or CBS ABC NBC CNN who are all part of the state run media ?
ReplyDelete3:24 Beck has a central position? What f*cking planet are you from?
ReplyDelete3:57 do you even watch his show I'll answer for you NO ! your a kook propagandist .

ReplyDelete3:24 Beck has a central position? What f*cking planet are you from?
Beck is absolutely center/right
you just can't see it from that far left. They call that young and dumb. When you grow up you'll understand.
Beck is the man, as far as I'm concerned. We need more people in the media, like him.
ReplyDeleteHey here is an idea. If you dont like Beck. DON'T WATCH HIM. You all know so much about him and dont like him but continue to watch him. I think he scares you because he bring out the things you are tryig to hide. OOOPSIES
ReplyDeleteLet me school you idiots. The center is what elected President Obama. Beck thinks Obama hates white people. That makes Beck right of the extreme right. Get it. You guys are the minority. An election proved it. Your numbers are dwindling every day. Get used to it.
ReplyDeleteThe guy must be doing something right his rating are through the roof along with all the other Fox News shows. In fact you can add most of the other networks together and still not get as many people that watch Fox news. CHOKE ON THAT ONE!
ReplyDeleteIs everyone forgetting that Obama's mother and grandparents were white? He's not only a black man. He's half black/half white. That kind of rules out being racist.
ReplyDeleteLiberals are so used to full control over the media so when someone is not goose marching in lock step they attack them personally , Professionally and then go after their family not to mention frivolous law suits to bankrupt their lives . As far as I'm concerned political correctness is dead so the next time one of these kooks spout off I'm clipping them right across the mouth .
ReplyDeleteJeremiah Wright is a racist. Many of Obamas mentors and role models were Black Liberation Theologists --if he is not racist he sure likes to saturate himself in them.
ReplyDelete5:07 your logic doesn't hold water . Beck is looking at his 20 years with Reverend Wright who is a clear racist and associations with people like Bill Ayers the list is very long and then add the Black Panther party recruiter you the Harvard Professor and then Obama who admitted not knowing the facts sided with the radical because the officer was white of course this blew up in his face but it does shine light on the soul of Obama.
ReplyDeleteAgain, the race card..you slow eastern shore thinking idiots will never change. But there is one good thing about it, you are now the minority!!!! Blacks are the minority!!! Ask yourself who is in the majority???? How does that make you feel? I am sure that you will be really banging your keyboard on that. As for the policeman that said black use the race card even when they are in the wrong well thats a real shame that some people do that. Those idiots need to take ownership of the things that they do and say and so should Beck!!! To that point so should Obama I would just like to tell you of a situation that happend to me in my own home. My alarm went off and I called the police, I was armed and told the officers on the phone when I called them. The officers came in and looked around the house they said everything looked ok and then they were about to leave. One of the officers looked at my personal possessions and my vehicles and asked me ...what do you do? You have all these nice items and live in a nice neighborhood what is your profession???? By the way give me your drivers license and don't make any quick moves. I bet you don't know how that feels, I called the police to protect me and ended up feeling like the criminal. This is only one of the hundreds of stories in my own life that I have to go thru every day. Racism huh I don't know anything else!!!
ReplyDeleteX Factor
Beck is driving liberal thinkers to the brink....I just hope he does not let them go... We need their liberal diatribe for use in shoring up our defenses.
ReplyDeleteX Factor.
ReplyDeleteNO! you do not know real racism,
I'm a white guy that lives in a black neighborhood.
I treat my neighbors very well but I'm still the white target.
I do not have the opportunity to score a job because I'm black, My kids have to work hard for good grades because they don't get an extra 50% because they are black. And I have to score much higher on a pre-employment test because I'm white.
there is no National Association for the Advancement of White people.
the list is endless of the racist perks for the blacks.
It's waaaay past time for the blacks to get over it.
6:34 quit your crying and your personal racist cop story is crap get over yourself.
ReplyDelete9:02,
ReplyDeleteYou probably are not getting jobs because you spout totally baseless, untrue facts and what employer wants that. Have you been watching FOX too much? 50% in school for being black, wow you have outdone yourself there. From facts that I can pull out of my a$$, it is only 14.335%.
9:02 Your white in a black neighborhood and you are a target?I apologize for them, maybe its not because your white and they are black but just maybe you live by some ignorant jacka$$es. Im black in a white country that was built off of the backs of people of color just like me. Still I do not belive in any perferential treatment due to color, sex or religious status. But history has shown that there are cases that some employers would not hire minorities...it is a fact! It is also a fact that women are paid less than men...is that fair? You are right there should be a NAAWP as long as it is based on your HERTIAGE and not hatred for other people that don't look like you. I also don't belive in the NAACP and other pro black groups that advocate hate, hate is hate no matter what color you are. I am sorry that your moronic neighbors treat you that way I wish I were your neighbor. 8:50 you are the exactly whats wrong with this country! I am sure you sit in your little hut and belive that these things don't happen and you are right as well I am crying...crying out for sameness. I can give you the officers name, the agency, the date and time of the occurance but I would not make a difference to you. I will be wrong in your eyes no matter what. By the way I never followed up or complained about this to anyone because unlike some I may play spades but I don't play the race card!!!!
ReplyDeleteX Factor
Based on what I read here blacks are anti white what a huge chip these racist have on their welfare shoulders...
ReplyDeletewho is the minority and who is the majority...blacks & whites are the minority now days....we are about equal...the majority is mexicans and other immigrants...look around you.....the real minority is the American indian.....
