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”.

I used to work for an organization that I described:
“The second-worst thing you can do in this organization is disagree with management. The worst thing you can do is disagree with management, AND BE RIGHT...”

Where did you send it? I was looking for a “CORPORATE” Number and could not find one...
Go to a real insurance company. Go to Allstate. They’ve been very good to me, and they are quite inexpensive if you have a good record. If you don’t have a good record, they won’t take you.
Rule #1: Management is always right.
Rule #2: If Management is wrong, see Rule #1.
Geico is one of the worst insurance companies in this country. Even their own employees don’t insure with them, and will tell ya they’re a rip off.
Off the record, their own employees will tell ya, their management truly sucks, and they are more expensive, dinging the customer at every opportunity.
We LOVE Allstate. They’ve been great for us for many years.
There’s too damn many GEICO Adds on TV anyway.Who needs them?
Can’t begrudge any advertiser for avoiding controversy. My only concern would be, is GEICO an equal-opportunity avoider of controversy — or are they continuing to advertise on, say, Rachel Maddow’s show?
Get out of the way Geico, good riddance, you are just making room for good advertisers. Take your green assed metrosexual lizard and cram it.
I cancelled Geico years ago for their crook assed behavior.
just went to their site, contact info. i also logged in but you can send email without being a customer.
i checked on their site for a 1-800 number for comments and curiously couldn’t find one. just email and mailing.

Now, what can we do to PO the "free credit report" guys?
Geico is General Electric - in Obama’s hip pocket. Try Allstate or State Farm.
Isn’t progressive insurance a george soros owned company anyway?
If there are still businesses out there which actually CARE about advertising to a large audience, he will have plenty of takers to fill the empty slots.
I just sent an email protesting the GEICO ban on Glenn Beck. I am a policy holder with them. GEICO is owned by Warren Buffet, a big billionaire and Obama supporter.
