Left-wing pressure groups Color of Change and Media Matters are claiming responsibility for getting Geico Insurance, Progressive Insurance, Procter & Gamble, and Lawyers.com to pull ads from Glenn Beck’s Fox News program.
The campaign against Beck picked up steam when the Fox News personality commented that President Obama was “racist” with a “deep-seated hatred for white people”.

There will be plenty of other advertisers willing to take their places. High ratings draw such.
Did any advertisers pull ads from Olbernut when that Jeanne Barfalo said that tea party protesters were racist?
Oh, well. Someone else will pay a king’s ransom to reach that many viewers. You can’t get that kind of exposure on MSDNC.
Beck is AWESOME!!! He is a Patriot and a Messenger for Freedom!!!!!! God please bless him!
...the truth hurts...
Works both ways, doesn’t it.
That must be the reason that Glenn said he was under immense pressure not to report some of the things he does, but he was going to do it anyway, and he has. He speaks the truth and liberals can’t handle the truth. That’s why they are going after him. It’s a shame that he’s not able to use his first amendment rights without that bunch trying to silence him.
Haven’t purchased P&G products for years. As for Progressive Insurance, their name says it all.
i’m a geico customer, just dropped them an email.
where the heck were these companies when “Uber-man”, “chrissy”, their networks and msm when former President Bush was maligned frequently?
It’s not a mystery about Progressive Insurance...the owner of that company is a rabid dog liberal to the very bone....I wouldn’t take their insurance if they gave it away....damned liberals....I guess the same now goes for Geico and P&G (devil worshipers).
I for one will no longer buy anything from the companies who pulled their adds. So there.
I, too, just emailed Geico. Been a customer of theirs for quite a while now.
Maybe not too much longer, though.
All to the good...I usually switch channels whenever a GEICO or Progressive commercial comes on. The lizard was OK at first until he adopted the phony British accent (are geckos indigenous to England?), and the girl in the Progressive ads is too annoying to watch.
wonder if rahm “dead fish” emanuel made some phone calls?
the “non-mobs” are ought in full force evidently.
I think GEICO is a Berkshire Hathaway holding. Warren Buffett is no friend of conservatives.
Obama and Emmanuel are sending the corporations letters threatening them with extra taxes if they don’t withhold their advertising on the Glenn Beck program.
Okay, I have GEICO. My policy is up in a month. I do have to say they are very convenient. Anybody have suggestions on where else to go?
Good, now I won’t have to see that stupid lizard and the lame cavemen. Lawyers, that is just a terrible loss isn’t it? How about that flaky broad on that other forgettable car insurance add?
I can’t believe that others won’t take their place.
