No Surprise. AP Story on Beck Boycott Full of Lies, Half-Truths...

AP is the most noxious part of the MSM supporting Obama and all his works. A band of committed leftists, almost every article is slanted against conservatives and against the United States, if there is some foreign policy implications. Let's fact-check these liars on this article versus a more reliablevenue with facts checked by real human beings, not journalism-school androids.

AP Big Lie #1: "A total of 33 Fox advertisers, including Walmart, CVS Caremark, Clorox and Sprint, directed that their commercials not air on Beck's show, according to the companies and ColorofChange.org, a group that promotes political action among blacks and launched a campaign to get advertisers to abandon him. That's more than a dozen more than were identified a week ago."

Fact-Check: Following on the heels of yesterday's denial by Best Buy of claims by Color of Change that they pulled their ads from the Glenn Beck program, today 2 more major advertisers denied CoC's take on events.

DefendGlenn.com contacted officials at WalMart in Bentonville, including David Tovar, the representative quoted in Color of change's well-hyped press release. They confirmed that WalMart, which was not even a sponsor of Glenn Beck's show on FoxNews Channel to begin with, was pulling its ads from ALL CABLE NEWS TALK SHOWS as of August 3rd, as a direct response to this "controversy". WalMart stated their reason for pulling all ads from "commentary broadcasts" was to "avoid polarizing our customers". This includes CNN and MSNBC. ALL PULLED. Since clearly WalMart has still been running ads on all of these shows after August 3rd, a representative told us by email that "it will still have to go through a business process and it may not take effect immediately". The "process" is apparently contractual (such as "Run-Of-Service" arrangements with networks such as FoxNews, which terminate at the end of August).

DefendGlenn.com has also spoken to officials from Procter and Gamble, and Sargentos. P&G said they have NOT pulled ads because they never advertised on Glenn Beck to begin with. In addition P&G said they would be "restricting our advertising to daytime lineups" in an attempt to "avoid controversy". While Sargento, whose brand-destruction by its own public relations reps has been well-documented here, has now said they will also be yanking ads from MSNBC and CNN "talk personalities" as soon as it can be "arranged".

AP Big Lie #2: "Beck's strong ratings — even at 5 p.m. EDT he often outdraws whatever CNN and MSNBC show in prime-time — make it unlikely Beck is going anywhere even with the list of advertisers avoiding him approaches three dozen."

Fact Check: Glenn's Show outdraws both CNN & MSNBC combined every day at 5PM even though they are prime-slotted at 8PM & for the obnoxious prick K.O. also at 10 PM. Glenn outdraws eyeballs on K.O.'s combined audience [as does K.O.'s 10PM competitor on Fox, Greta Van S.]

AP Big Lie #3: "But it could mean advertising time becomes cheaper on his show than such a large audience would normally command. Some of his show's advertisers last week included a male enhancement pill, a law firm looking to sue on behalf of asbestos victims, a company selling medical supplies to diabetics and a water filter company."

Fact Check: Most of the "33" companies contacted by DefendGlenn have told DG that they either haven't directed any changes in advertising or that they have stopped all advertising for all cable opinion shows as a result of the "Color of Change" boycott instigated by Van Jones, the Communist-by-own-admission "Green Czar" in Obama's White House. Looks like black racist Obama is getting worried about being outed... And that the reason he didn't visit Mama's deathbed in '96 was because he hated white people, even his mama....

Final Upshot: DefendGlenn.com has also spoken to officials from Procter and Gamble, and Sargentos. P&G said they have NOT pulled ads because they never advertised on Glenn Beck to begin with. In addition P&G said they would be "restricting our advertising to daytime lineups" in an attempt to "avoid controversy". While Sargento, whose brand-destruction by its own public relations reps has been well-documented here, has now said they will also be yanking ads from MSNBC and CNN "talk personalities" as soon as it can be "arranged".

Great work, Color of Change, you are killing the struggling shows like Hardball, Ed Show, Anderson Cooper 180, and Maddow, in addition to the once-strong brands such as Olbermann, which is now hemorraging viewers, by yanking their few high-paying advertisers away from them.

Meanwhile FoxNews continues to explode its ratings, and is able to replace advertisers on a moment's notice. For instance, last week, after Men's Wearhouse confirmed that it was joining Color of Change's astroturf fraud, JoS A. Bank Clothiers had ads to replace them on Beck's show only 2 nights later!

Finally, the upshot of this whole brouhaha will be that opportunistic advertisers like high-range clothier Jos. A. Bank and others will move quickly to usurp the millions of eyeballs watching Beck's show with an eye to buying whatever adverts recommend----death-row shows like Olberbite and Maddow are not going to attract anything but stoned slacker sport-of-nature maggots anyway, perhaps with disposable income, but rarely with a family or any dependents.

I sent a nasty e-mail to Sargento's in Plymouth, WI. Pls do the same.

And Color of Change is a black racist organization which echoes Kanye West:
"George Bush doesn't care about black people". He's given the troops "permission to go down and shoot us"
-Kanye West, 2005

and puts out a black t-shirt ad saying "Kanye was right."

Now we have a black racist president with a "Green Czar" who is a Communist, and a black racist organization trying to boycott Glenn Beck when he exercises his First Amendment rights. We will boycott the boycotters.
