Who's Really Bailing on Glenn Beck?
By Mithridate Ombud
August 26, 2009 - 05:11 ET

"...democracy must be more than what the majority insists upon."
Barack Obama, The Audacity of Hope

Let me take this opportunity to look into something the media won't touch. All moonbat hands are unloading every cannon on the deck at Glenn Beck right now. According to the media, Glenn walks down the sidewalk with half a baby hanging out of his mouth pushing old ladies into traffic. Well, as my dear old dad used to say; "If everyone is aiming at you, you know you're on to something."

And what is Glenn on to? If you haven't watched Glenn this week, go back and start at Monday because he has unlocked an unreported movement in this country that he believes may change all of our lives. Glenn's genius is that as he falls on the sword he passes forward a series of questions we should all ask, like "Can we survive this debt? If yes, how?" or why do we have a (self-proclaimed) communist Czar running anything? These are questions that remain long after the media has chewed him up and spit him out. Voters may not remember what the media did to Glenn next year, but his questions are sure to persist as they cast their next vote.

Are these questions so out of line that they dare not be asked? The media thinks so. The left thinks so. Even Glenn's own advertisers think so, they are pulling out by the dozens according to the news. Well let's put our journalist shoes on and go where the media can't seem to find with both hands. Let's look at who is bailing on Glenn Beck.

Progressive Insurance. They don't call it "Progressive" for nothing. This Peter Lewis run supawn was the engine that gave $8.5 million dollars to the ACLU. You may remember Peter Lewis as the billionaire with a painting of Chinese communist Mao Tse-tung hanging in his house. It's a Warhol. The only thing more shocking than Progressive Insurance pulling their advertising from Glenn Beck is the idea that they ever became an advertiser to begin with.

Verizon/AT&T/Sprint. Oh, here come the telecoms strong with Verizon VP Jim Gerace hanging out the passenger window with a shotgun; "We made a decision that we don't want to be advertising on that program for a lot of reasons." I wonder if one of those reasons is that Glenn pointed out that Obama's foot soldiers are the unions? And what union does Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint call daddy? The Communication Workers of America. It's the site with the little AFL-CIO logo at the top. Well I'm sure the Communistcation Workers of America have no dog in this fight, but since we're playing journalist (1940s black coffee journalist, not a Starbucks reporter) let's zip over to OpenSecrets.org to see what we see. Oh, and look at that. OpenSecrets classifies the Communication Workers of America as a "Heavy Hitter". They've given out $26.7 million dollars to politicians. But don't worry, only 99% of that went to Democrats. I'd give these telecoms credit for not grabbing the $5 billion in Obama-dollars offered to them, but I won't since the only reason they didn't is the net neutrality conditions on taking it.

Walmart. Walmart recently "flabbergasted" the National Retail Federation after throwing in for Obama's employer mandate on healthcare. Walmart also has a PAC, of which 64% goes to Democrats in the latest cycle. Oh, one other thing, Walmart's CEO signed the letter announcing this change. Under his signature was the signature of Andrew Stern, President of the Service Employees International Union, and Obama abettor John Podesta, who is chief executive for the Center for American Progress. Why? The SEIU is a union that Glenn has been particularly vocal in outing as an arm of the Obama administration. They land at #9 on the Heavy Hitters list with $27.5 million going to politicians, 95% of which went to Democrats (and no, the other 5% did not go to Republicans.) On the other hand, it's nice to see Walmart finally carrying Glenn's books.

Best Buy. Why would Best Buy turn their back on Glenn Beck? Is it really public outrage or do they have anything at all to gain from going against someone who wants to expose Obama's healthcare sham? MobileHealthNews.com: "Best Buy appears to be gearing up to re-enter the market in a very big way — this time, though, it looks like its healthcare technology offerings will remain in-house."

Campbells Soup. Well this one just makes perfect sense, since they have been trying to transition into marketing the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender community. You gotta move that Double Noodle any way you can.

UPS. UPS is Teamster turf. The Teamsters are a part of the AFL-CIO. The Teamsters are #10 on OpenSecret.org's Heavy Hitter list, coming in with $27.4 million in donations, 92% of which went to Democrats. FedEx gave 58% of their PAC to Republicans, remember that next time you ship a package.

I bet you can't wait until you're forced to be in a union that gives your money to Democrats. One might almost think this all looks orchestrated. Nah, that would take one heck of an organizer to pull off something like that.

But just in case, keep in mind that boycotts work both ways.

I don't watch Beck. It sounds like maybe I should start though.
 
Quote from IShopAtPublix:

I like to see those "independent agencies" Perhaps wall st journal?

Out of MSNBC/FOX/CNN CNN has always been by far the most professional and fox is a sewer.

MSNBC goes overboard with Obama love, but there is no malice there. When idiot O'Reilly was bitching about Saddam's "anthrax viles" and supporting every ridiculous W decision there was serious harm to the country done. Fox is a sewer.
More...

No malice with MSNBC, that has to be the funniest thing i have ever read. Olbermann has a specific section of his show nightly dedicated to bashing Limbaugh, OReilly Beck, and any other conservative called worst persons in the world, where he talks in an obnoxious voice like a two year old. They also make damn sure that their front line story every single day is something bashing conservatives, on every single show Maddow, Olbermann and Chris Matthews. No malice there hahahaha omg thats funny:D

Yesterday that douche Olbermann tried to spin the whole ratings thing and called oreilly a liar for saying they have the highest ratings, (when oreily triples olbermann) then he found some way to spin it by saying yeah well if yuo took out these fox viewers and added them here and divided by two well then whammmy we have the highest ratings.

Anyone who tries to claim that either of these networks is not dedicated solely to attacking the other party is a lunatic, hell they dont just restrain themselves to attacking the other party either every single day on every single show they find some way to attack the other network as well. Once again though as it pertains to attacking the other network olbermann has to be the stupidest fuck on t.v. his entire show is one big advertisement for oreilly limbaugh and fox news and he is to stupid to figure it out, so instead he just lies to himself and tells himself his ratings are better.

There is no malice in criticizing Limbaugh, but since you probably think Limbaugh is a towering figure of character this point is lost on you.

Olbermann is needed to at least to attempt to balance the cesspool known as faux news.

Olbermann: Fox News Watchers Are Paranoids and Racists
By Noel Sheppard (Bio | Archive)
August 26, 2009 - 00:14 ET

Did you know that Keith Olbermann's "Countdown" on MSNBC is the highest rated news program on cable?

You didn't?

Well, it is according to Keith Olbermann.

Honestly.

Even worse, in his view, folks that watch Fox News are "tin foil hatters, conspiracy theorists, paranoids and racists."

He said so Tuesday evening, so it must be true


KEITH OLBERMANN: I hate to intrude with the facts but ours is the highest rated cable news program viewers 35 and younger and the highest rated cable news program for all viewers not on Fixed News. And since Fixed News has since now migrated completely over to serving propaganda to tin foil hatters, conspiracy theorists, paranoids and racists it is not a news organization making this show the highest rated cable news program, period.
More...

Yes, and the Toronto Blue Jays are the best team in Major League Baseball if you ignore all those situated in America.

Nice try, Keith.

Could you BE any more of an embarrassment to your industry?

For the record, on Monday, these were the top cable news programs:

The O'Reilly Factor - 3,440,000 viewers
Hannity - 2,937,000 viewers
Glenn Beck - 2,810,000 viewers
On The Record w/ Greta Van Susteren - 2,450,000 viewers
Special Report with Bret Baier - 2,066,000 viewers
Fox Report w/Shep Smith - 1,860,000 viewers
Countdown w/ K. Olbermann - 1,114,000 viewers
Larry King Live - 1,063,000 viewers

Exit questions: if it's wrong for a conservative talk show host to call the President racist, isn't it wrong for a liberal talk show host to accuse millions of Americans of being similarly prejudiced?

Will the advocacy group founded by the President's green czar Van Jones petition Olbermann's sponsors to stop advertising on his program due to these deplorable comments?

If not, why not?

Are you three years old? Please point to where i said i like Rush Limbaugh. Fortunately unlike you i am able to see the douche bags on both sides for what they are instead of being in love with Olbermann like you are.

Olbermann is what is needed to balance the evil "right" wing media hahahaha, and their one television channell. Olbermann probably cant even balance his cheque book since his ratings are so poor.

Keep towing the company line and drinking the kool aid buddy, you wouldnt want anyone to mistake you for someone capable of critical thought.

Exactly!!! The libertards can't deal with reality. I hear that Rush is in negotiations to start his own television show. lol More trouble looming for the liberal Democrats. Then you have the 2010/2012 elections, which equals more & more trouble for the Democrats. Their extinction is inevitible, due to their even suggesting we have a health bill that rations care for the elderly. They have really pissed off a lot voters, especially ones that put them in office. Good days are on the horizon folks, as the Democrats will be flushed down the toilet very soon. :D
