Glenn Beck loses 33 advertises, UPS Stores temporarily halt all ads on FNC

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

NEW YORK – Glenn Beck returns to Fox News Channel on Monday after a vacation with fewer companies willing to advertise on his show than when he left, part of the fallout from calling President Barack Obama a racist.

A total of 33 Fox advertisers, including Wal-Mart Stores Inc., CVS Caremark, Clorox and Sprint, directed that their commercials not air on Beck's show.

...

The Clorox Co., a former Beck advertiser, now says that "we do not want to be associated with inflammatory speech used by either liberal or conservative talk show hosts."

...

UPS Stores [have] temporarily halted buying ads on Fox News Channel as a whole.

In fairness, just 1 has pulled off of FNC entirely and that too just temporarily. The other 32 of the 33 have only pulled off of Beck's show.

Advertisers have higher ethical standards that Rethuglicans?

Glenn Beck simply tries too hard. He tries to out-douche the rest of the conservative pundits by going far overboard. Unfortunately for him, he has neither the fan base, nor the clout to sustain this.

Yes, the new ** slogan is: How low can you go?
