Nearly Three Dozen Sponsors Boycott Glenn Beck
Listen up, Glenn Beck. President Obama may or may not have a “deep-seated hatred for white people,” but advertisers apparently have a deep-seated disliking for you.
Nearly one month after telling the crew at Fox & Friends that Obama was “a racist,” the backlash for the FOX News commentator keeps coming. In total, 33 advertisers - including Wal-Mart Stores Inc., CVS Caremark, Clorox and Sprint - have now asked to be distanced from the show.

Sponsors are a good thing to have. However, I believe in what Glen Beck has to say. and if they want my money I think they need to get back in the game and his support.
