"Please Watch Me, Or I'll Hold My Breath!"


Coming back on the air after a forced "vacation", Fux's resident mental case Glenn "Boo Hoo" Beck was pleading for people to watch his show this week, in response to over 30 advertisers (and counting) who have pulled their advertisements from his craptacular hate fest. It appears that lunacy doesn't sell advertising time after all, even on Fux.

Fux's viewer demographics amount to the slice of America that you could describe as paranoid, right-wing, angry, and racist so it's not that likely that Fux will drop Boo Hoo altogether. A different time slot for Boo Hoo? Maybe. . .if Boo Hoo agrees to wear a straight jacket on the air.

More Companies Say "Bye" to Boo Hoo


The number of companies pulling their ads from the Glenn "Boo Hoo" Beck show on Fux has reached 20, with such heavyweights as Wal-Mart, Best Buy and CVS recently pulling the plug on Boo Hoo's hour of right wing rage. It's dawning on these corporate advertisers that unhinged babble from Boo Hoo might not be the best thing for their companies to be associated with.

At this rate, Boo Hoo will have to resort to YouTube to get his hate message out, maybe from a psychiatric ward.

Speaking of Boo Hoo...

Boo Hoo's Got Something To Cry About


We're seeing more and more advertisers pulling their ads from the excreable Glenn Beck Show, hosted by Fux's premier mental case Glenn "Boo Hoo" Beck. Sargento Cheese, GEICO, and Men's Warehouse are the latest to pull their advertisements from the Dreck Boy's hour of hate. Proctor and Gamble, and Progressive Insurance had pulled their ads earlier.

Pressure needs to be kept on the remaining advertisers, who may be unaware of the Dreck Boy's unhinged daily rants and that their brands are being associated with his lunacy.
