CoC Claims Aventis, Radio Shack, ConAgra Pull Ads
Also Claims Roche Has Pulled Ads, but company has not confirmed "Black nationalist" bloggers and Obama advisors "Color of Change" have released a statement claiming that Sanofi-Aventis, maker of Plavix, ConAgra, makers of Healthy Choice (and many other brands), RadioShack (for the magicJack product specifically) and Roche, makers of AccuCheck Aviva, have all withdrawn their advertising from the Glenn Beck Program on Fox News Channel.
In a media release, Color of Change quotes the advertisers as follows...
ConAgra...
“…Upon review of this particular program, we have discontinued our advertising for all ConAgra Foods products during its airing,” said Stephanie Childs, spokesperson for ConAgra Foods, in an email to ColorOfChange.org. “We share your commitment to diversity in all areas of life and appreciate you sharing your concerns with us.”
Sanofi-Aventis...
“We have specified that our ads will no longer run on Mr. Beck's show,” said Sean Connor, Manager of Media Services and Purchasing for Sanofi-Aventis, in an e-mail to ColorOfChange.org. “We have included this show on a list of programming that should not be utilized within the Fox network buys. Thank you for drawing our attention to this matter.”
Radio Shack (taking on ALL of Fox News Channel, apparently)...
“We've asked magicJack to immediately cease and desist running all commercials with our name tagged in the spot on FNC,” Hamlin continued. “In fact, I just received verification from one our merchants that magicJack has confirmed the commercial will be pulled from the Fox News Channel rotation ASAP.”
Roche...
A spokesperson for Roche confirmed the company’s decision to pull its ads during a phone conversation with ColorOfChange.org Tuesday, but the company has not issued a written statement.
DefendGlenn.com has gotten conflicting responses from these advertisers, so we do not know how much they are blowing smoke for the radicals over at Color of Change out of fear of Van Jones, Obama BFF and self-described "black nationalist" and "Communist" who somehow got appointed as "Green Jobs Czar".
However, we have no choice but assume these advertisers have entered the "turncoat" category, and we as a community shall act accordingly.
We invite emails to let us know about all the competitors to these products so that we can inform our community to direct their purchasing dollars elsewhere. It won't be long before these advertisers realize they have been punked by a bunch of paid activists, college students and slackers in their parent's basements, who won't fill a single prescription of PLAVIX all year long--while our community can hurt their bottom line, big time.
Stay tuned...

S.C. Johnson Denies They Pulled Ads from Beck
Despite Wild Claims from Boycotters, Few Companies Confirm They've Cancelled Ads
Several in our community have received the following email from SC Johnson...
Patricia,
Thank you for sharing your concerns as there is some potentially misleading information on the web about this topic.
SC Johnson has not pulled or cancelled advertising for the Glenn Beck show, as we never directed our advertising to this particular program. In general, our goal is to provide good, informative ads and we select those programs and/or networks that make the most sense given our consumer base.
Regards,
Denise

Clearly advertisers who had previously said they were withdrawing ads from Glenn's show are now feeling the pressure of thousands of loyal Beck fans expressing their anger and threatening to go to their competitors for business. It's becoming clear that a handful of 40-something bloggers living in their Mom's basement managed to put an initial scare into these companies, and many of them made a BIG mistake in cancelling their ads.
Now they will find out how big an economic force is 2.4 million viewers who actually work for a living.
UPDATE: Several Beck fans feel that SC Johnson is BS-ing us with their double talk in different emails. So we have officially returned them to "Turncoat" status--LET 'ER RIP! (08-15-09 21:20)

Stand Up Against the Attempt to Censor Glenn
Left-Wing Hate Mongers and Racists Threaten Beck's Advertisers to Drop His TV Show
Radical groups with strong ties to Obama, such as the "black nationalist" political group Color of Change and the left-wing blog DailyKos have targeted Glenn Beck for his perceived "racist" views about Barack Obama. The truth behind the lies is that Beck is being specifically targeted for exposing the web of left-wing organizations that Obama is bringing into power. Obama and his allies know they can never push through their agenda if the American people are aware of it, so they are constructing their web behind the scenes--using extra-constitutional "czars", with the goal of moving America towards Socialism. One of these Czars is the founder of Color of Change. The mainsteam Obama-centric media will never report these activities. Some conservatives don't even report them, Glenn Beck is the only one who does, and thus is a clear and present threat to the considerable policial, union and economic entities he threatens to expose.
CONTACT US Suppporters of liberty and freedom of speech must stand with Glenn Beck in his hour of need. Contact his advertisers that are listed on this site. Tell all your friends. In the words of Beck, "We surround them"...we are far larger than the puny group of radical agitators being paid to send form emails to scare advertisers into abandoning Glenn's TV show. Let us break their attempted boycott.

So Beck exposes that the new Green Czar is Van Jones, self proclaimed Communist . And now you see the Chicago Way in action, ala Saul Alinsky--ridicule, bully threaten anyone that exposes the TRUTH. The "Czars" are hideously dangerous, no oversight, no hearing confirmation,unlimited access and power. WAKE UP AND TAKE BACK OUR COUNTRY !!!
ReplyDeleteI usually do bathroom chores, etc when the ads come on, or skip thru them using the DVR.
ReplyDeleteNow I will have to pay attention to the ads on his program too??!?
Sheesh ....
Welcome to Capatalism 101, duh.
ReplyDeleteHe will say anything to get a dollar. Now that he is losing his dollars by saying anything, he will have to suffer the consequences.
ReplyDeleteCapitalism does not rely on Union thugs,bullying and threats by those in power. Capitalism rewards hard work, inventiveness and ingenuity. Liberals have been steeped in the entitlment culture for too long, "Gubmint handouts" are what most aspire to, no wonder you don't really understand capitalism. The Chinese do though, thats why they OWN us.
ReplyDeleteto my mind, any commercials pulled would be an incentive for me to watch.
ReplyDelete8:43 -- don't be fooled. Beck isn't losing money on this deal. He's gaining much more attention. As he should be. What happened to freedom of speech? Glenn Beck has been out spoken on many issues -- including much of what George Bush was doing, so he can't be categorized as "right wing, radical, blah blah blah". If you don't like what he's saying, change the channel. If you don't like that he called the President a racist, don't watch his program. But why should an organization bully companies into pulling their ads?
ReplyDeleteFreedom of speech is for all - not just lying liberals.
Joe,
ReplyDeleteI'm a MSG in our United States Army, I'm a graduate of Yale University's Divinity School and I'm born and bred Eastern Shore. It doesn't take brains to know when someone is full of horse crap and believe me when I say Glenn Beck is full of horse crap. I'm proud to say I'm an American, a Warrior, and not too dull. Anyone who thinks my politics make me weak or less of a patriot, should try saying that to my face when I get back from my third tour in Iraq. What you all seem to think is that what people like Glenn Beck say is the gospel, but you should try thinking for yourself. Read your bible, think about how and more importantly WHY we have our liberties. Show some respect for your fellow Americans and more importantly humans. Mr. Beck hasn't figured that out. He's nothing more than a mouth, and that my friends is weakness. Just like we say in the Army, we don't want robots. Use your head. Think for yourself. I'll put good money on most of your readers and his listeners being smarter than this clown.
SO 10:17 how do you feel about Chris Matthews,Keith Obamerman, and Rachel Maddox? You can't be serious, Beck is over the top with his delivery at times but his information in very important. I dot think for myself and thank goodness that there are a FEW media persons that are not afraid to speak the truth. Please site any info from Beck that you think is untrue. The association of Van Jones with the communist party --he admits it himself.
ReplyDeleteThey keep showing who the sponsors are and I stop using them. The 1st Amendment in all its glory.
ReplyDeleteJust like when you a$$holes boycotted France in 2003. "Freedom Fries"? Yeah, Beck needs to lose all his sponsors, and then you'll understand the 1st amendment.
I will never understand the liberal logic of bashing another person's point of view while hiding behind the 1st Amendment. The type of critical thinking that pervades the Democrat party.
ReplyDeleteBoy you can really tell who the left is afraid of by how viciously they attack,first Palin and now Beck. Have you seen his ratings?
ReplyDelete10:17
ReplyDeleteH.Richard Niebuhr would roll over in his grave if he read your blather about being a warrior!
Any sponsor who pulls there ads I will boycott.And to the idiot who says their a Yale grad apparently you can't see through the liberal media filter you should get your money back if you paid anything.
ReplyDelete4:26: I find name-calling childish; however, if Yale grad is an idiot, then you are an absolute imbecile.
ReplyDeleteHang in there, 10:17. We could benefit from more of your brave comments. And BTW, thanks for your military service in Iraq. May you return safely from this next tour.
We are all grateful for the soldiers who defend us from the mean Muslims. If it weren't for you we would have no heroin.
ReplyDelete4:49 Based on what? your hysteria ?
ReplyDeleteI know someone who bought $160,000 worth of gold because of Glenn Beck. So far hes about a 7 per cent profit over about 5 months. Not to shabby. Glenn reveals how bad the economy is, how weak the dollar is and the fact the Chinese have us in the palm of their hand.
ReplyDelete10:17 I would love to take you up on your offer to "say it to your face" but I know a little puke like you would never stand face to face with me !
ReplyDelete10:38
ReplyDeleteListen, 10:17 is simply wrong. She/He believes violence is cool. Killing is sooooo American that it is Jewish. Dont' make matters worse by showing your ignorance too.
We need to stop being the killing machine for a Zionist agenda. It is ridiculous and dangerous.
Please stop this violent bit.

ReplyDelete10:38 Since when is being able to defend yourself against a bully ignorant ? Every major conflict since the world began has ended in violence it's part of the human condition and I refuse to let myself be feminized.
