37 companies have dropped sponsorship of Glenn Beck's Fox Show, following a remarkably successful Color of Change campaign launched in response to Beck's crazy racebating.

Here's a list of the companies that continue to advertise on Beck's show and the ones who have filled in, assembled by Media Matters. (Here's a fun game: identify all of the News Corps. properties on the list, as well as all the non-national brands that have taken the place of big companies like Wal-Mart and Geico.)

  • Rosland Capital
  • Ashley Furniture
  • U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
  • National Republican Trust PAC -- GOPTrust.com
  • Goldline International Inc.
  • The Wall Street Journal
  • Citrix (GoToMeeting)
  • Liberty Medical
  • Johnson Law Group
  • TeaPartyExpress.org -- Our Country Deserves Better PAC
  • Merit Financial
  • Fox Movie Channel
  • Zero Technologies
  • HughesNet
  • IRSTaxAgreements.com
  • Lear Capital

I found this totally awesome post over at Huff Po, it is not off topic because it is a criticism of FOXN economic propaganda, an issue related to Beck.

Japan Must Shake Off U.S.-Style Globalization

I think this is an important development in world economics and socialism.

REFORMING ONESELF! by Max Ehrmann

It has been raining again. I have been

indoors, mediating on the short-

comings in life.

I wish there were more kindly persons

in the world. Our competitive life

develops selfishness and unkindness.

I am determined to do something about it.

I cannot hope to convert many

persons. To convert one person, I

shall do well.

I will begin with the person I know best -

myself.

When it rains and one is much indoors,

one is likely to meditate on the

shortcomings in life.

Let me think - how shall I make myself

kind, gentle, considerate?

I do believe it has stopped raining.

I can go out now. I'll go and shoot on

the archery range.

I'll not bother to reform myself today.

Perhaps tomorrow - if it is raining,

and I must stay indoors, and meditate

on the shortcomings of life.

Glenn Beck is THE most rabid attack dog of the right, with his primary targets being Prez. Obama and his Administration. I find it mind-boggling, then, that U.S. Department of Health and Human Services advertises on Glenn Beck's show.

Sarah Palin, lately a lady in search of a new cause has decided to back Glenn Beck. She'll show all those sponsors who's boss. ANNA

We live in a world of "information" and who we are and what we think is the outcome of that "information"

We need the 'good' and the 'not so good' to balance the polarities of life. You cannot know what the 'good' (your choice) is! without the 'not so good' (your choice again).

Speaking from your mind (the parameters of your personal information) and the heart (the feelings you've learned) seems to be the basic human need we should allow especially in these days of change.

Life is not falling apart - it is falling together and we should welcome all (2) sides of the coin in order to form a more perfect union of our personal information, beliefs, actions and reactions to the events at hand.

Free Speech not so important when it is used against you

During the election Ed Schultz and other liberal talkers called Hillary Clinton everything under the sun including racist......how is that different from Beck calling Obama racist? I started watching Beck to see what all the controversy was about and quite frankly he is not any different from what I heard on the liberal shows I used to listen to on Air America. They targeted the right and Beck targets the left. I will give Beck credit for one thing, he at least documents his evidence when he makes charges and a quick fact check his Tuesday show checked out. You all need to put on your big boy and big girl pants and accept that as long as there is no explicit threat of harm, this is free speech. I thought the left was big on that. Guess not so much when you are the targets.

Is just another moron in a long list of loudmouthed morons.
I listen to his drivel much as I do the twitterings of sparrows outside. They've got the same tiny brains.
The fact that morons get so much attention in the popular media is what's wrong here, not so much their verbal diarrhea.

WHAAA ? Dept. of Health and Human Services On Your LIst ?

I can't believe it ! Is the U. S. Dept. of Health and Human Services really one of Glen Beck's sponsors on his TV or Radio appearences ?
I am a amazed ! He has made so many really obscene and otherwise nasty remarks about just about every U. S. gov't. agency that he can imagine, that surely they must know it by now. Maybe there are some creatures in that Dept. left over from the Bush administration.
I am going to try to contact that Dept. by e-mail and let them know that I think that it is not appropriate for ANY U. S. gov't dept. to sponsor any TV or radio bloviatior, especially the likes of a Glen Beck and that many thousands of people wuld feel the same. I am going to insist that they quit sponsoring Beck.

Funny how you can debase someone who disagrees with you , even demand he be silenced while also demanding to be heard yourself ! While I may or may not agree with what someone has to say I respect his/her right to that opinion and yes that includes your right to your opinion to silence those who disagree with you . I just don't have much respect for Americans who don't understand the American way.
