Kudos SC Johnson, Geico, Proctor Gamble and Progressive For Standing Up to Beck

I don't find anything offensive about his show. He is about the only one left on any of the 3 big news netowrks still not afraid to at least like it is. I hear other networks and people acuse him of "hate" and I LAUGH.....HARD. He's a little out there in his presentaion (in the comical sense), but hate? ROFL! What a bunch of pusssies this country has become. Grow a spine America.

This is a perfect example of the Americans people using their voice to denounce the actions a someone they don't approve of. I have said many times, if you don't like someone's views on TV, contact their sponsers. When they don't have money, they won't be on the air very long. I am sure we all remember when this happened to the Simpsons back in the 80's, and democrats have learned from republicans since then. Good to see these companies standing up for what is right.

We should have free speech and people shouldn't be writing about him. I thought he was a Republican? However I'm not sure. He is interesting to listen to and I think he makes you think. You shouldn't accept things as face value and it's our duty to investigate. We shouldn't have to be herded like some sheep. We should be able to speak for ourselves and we shouldn't have to be censored for not agreeing with everyone. I don't agree with everything that he says. In fact, it's your choice to listen to him so if you don't want to listen to him just turn to another station. That's my view in it.

The only question is whether other sponsors will take their place. I've heard he still gets good ratings and that will be enough to keep other sponsors coming. I don't watch his show much, but I don't see all this hate speech you're talking about. He's definitely heavy on the doom and gloom which is why I never watch an entire episode, but have you seen the other side? I've been going through clips of Keith Olberman and Chris Matthews on youtube and it's hard to stomach 5 minutes of either of them. I can't imagine anyone sitting through an episode of their hate speech. I think their ratings reflect that I'm not the only one who feels that way. If I actually cared I'd complain to their sponsors, but frankly, their ratings are so far in the toilet it doesn't matter.

It's a simple matter of PR caution. These companies don't want to risk losing their customer base while sponsoring a guy that's clearly going to get people pissed off for stating this opinion. I am amused at the people who have a stick up their butt about this. I don't think it's all that inflammatory. Was it a stupid remark? Heck yeah, but it's not like no one ever saw it coming. Hell, white people get that same accusation by prominent "black leaders", or even nobodies who think there's we're still keeping the "black man down". Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson made their living off of screaming 'racist!' when it wasn't necessary. I wonder if ColorofChange.org is going to protest the racial divide caused by minority leaders as well, or are they just going to speak up when an "angry white man" does it?

I happen to like Glenn Beck and think he's usually 100% correct. Just my opinion.

Being up here in Canada, I haven't heard a lot of what is going on with that, but if it's really bad, and advertizers are pulling their dollars, maybe the networks will wake up and take notice!! Since the U$A seems to revolve around the allmighty dollar, maybe the networks will take notice.

I don't think it's hate talk. He is presenting facts. He backs them up with more facts. He'll get more sponsors. There are still people that want to hear the truth. I realize that everything he says might not prove to be true eventually but the way he connects the dots is logical. And if even 10% of what he says is true, we're in deep trouble. He already has a few "re-founders", members of Congress and Senate who are going to blow the whistle on government corruption!
