Facebook Causes Page for Glenn Beck/Fox News Advertiser Boycott
I didn't find much on Facebook specific to the Beck Boycott, so I started a "Cause" page with links to the advertiser petitions. A little social networking can only help!

Boycott Fox News & Glenn Beck Advertisers (Facebook Causes)
http://apps.facebook.com/causes/334380/36758035?m=fb5a6ed7

You will have to be logged in to Facebook to utilize it.

Positions are as follows:

1. We reject lies, fear, and hate speech as part of political discourse.
2. We will not support advertisers who choose to align themselves with false prophets of patriotism who beat the drums of fear, violence, & propaganda.
3. We will sign the petition against Glenn Beck, Fox News, and urge their advertisers to end their support.

5. Petition link
The petition is here: http://www.democrats.com/boycott-fox-news-advertisers

It's linked at the front of the Causes page on Facebook, but you can and should sign the petition even if you're not on Facebook. The FB page is a mirror to increase participation through social networking.
