5. So, is Red Lobster still advertising with him?
One would think that a restaurant would be particularly sensitive to the consequences of continuing to advertise there.

I received a message and a link to Twitter that said (paraphrasing) "We heard you and will no longer advertise on Glenn Beck's program." :kick: & R

7. We get it in the UK too and....
Glenn Beck runs without ads in UK — for four straight days, activists say.

An American political advocacy group aimed at empowering black voices in politics announced Tuesday that the British broadcast of Fox News' Glenn Beck show was forced to run without any paid advertisers last week after the last of the program's corporate sponsors bailed.

"With the latest group of defections from Beck's overseas broadcast, Fox News Channel was forced to fill commercial breaks with news headlines and local weather updates from its U.K.-based sister network, Sky News, instead of paid advertisements," the website StopBeck.com announced. The site is a project of ColorOfChange.org.
