Fox News now has unsold airtime on Glenn Beck’s show.
98 companies now refuse to have ads run on Glenn Beck's show! A little good news :)

6. So He's Now A Loss Leader...
They don't advertise on Dreck, but they sure will on other shows. And thanks to Dreck's high ratings, it means Faux gets to charge more on other dayparts. I heard a claim the other morning that Faux is now making more revenue than all the other cables combined...so they have problems selling one hour out of 24...big deal. They'll take the ratings that mean higher ad rates at other times.

Bottom line is an advertising boycott...as is sadly the case with most boycotts against a large corporate are futile. They may lose a couple bucks on one end, but they'll make it up on the other. And it's just a matter of time until all the heat draws away from this shitstain and the advertisers will sneak back. They have no scrupples other than to get their snuggie or peenie enhancement drug in front of as many eyeballs as possible.

9. Fox Gets Ratings Because The Shape The News To Fit Their Audience's World View
It's more porn than news in that it gives their viewers a false view of reality. Monica Crowley stated on O'Reilly's show that the US didn't have an attacker on an airplane under Bush. It's a pure distorted lie, but it gives their mouth breathing audience a talking point.
