Don't think it will matter since MSNBC is bundled in with other programs. MSNBC will still most likely keep on with Sharpton just like Chrissie Matthews. Almost total zip viewers.

More on recent Why Do Advertisers Back Race-Baiter Al Sharpton?

Why stop with this. What about "rampant" white-on-black sex crimes? End the flagrant lie foisted upon the public for at least a hundred years. These stats are from the Dept. of Justice Criminal Victimization tables for the years shown. Count the years when incidences of white-on-black rape / sexual assault were so few that statistically it was ZERO for the whole year.

It's time to call to task the lying, lucrative victims industry. A wholy-owned subsidiary of the really lucrative Civil Rights industry.

Let’s not forget the man who killed himself when (falsely) accused of this too.

“Man” should get off the stick and hire a good lawyer and sue fat-mouth Sharpton for all he’s worth.

I didn’t think it was like PBS or NPR being tax payer supported.

That’s my theory. There’s no way a company would keep shows on the air that are losing money. Money is the name of the game.

False accusers MUST be convicted and pay the same penalty as the innocent person falsely accused. MUST.

RE: Where do I find a list of the companies supporting Sharpton?

David Horowitz Freedom Center, started TruthRevolt.org, an organization dedicated to holding advertisers and sponsors accountable for the sources they support. - See more at: This link to Cybercast News Service was in the thread mentioned above. They mentioned TruthRevolt.org.

Truth Revolt I figure has the information about sponsors. I did not personally look for a sponsors list.

I do not have a TV. There was something about Ritz crackers and Sharpton here on FR the other day but I thought they were talking about rich white people. :)

BTW.. this is germane: the doctrine of vicarious liability. This doctrine has been used in civil law suits against groups totally unconnected to the crime -- they were found guilty for causing the criminal actions of others even though the criminals only connection to the group was knowing of it's public (racist) statements.

RE: False accusers MUST be convicted and pay the same penalty as the innocent person falsely accused. MUST.

I agree and go a step further..

Who is influencing or otherwise making the criminal activity of the accusers possible?

To wit, the doctrine of vicarious liability. This doctrine has been used in civil law suits against groups totally unconnected to the crime -- they were found guilty for causing the criminal actions of others even though the criminals only connection to the group was knowing of its public (racist) statements.

Example Tom Metzger and his white supremacist group were sued by $PLC and fined millions of dollars for causing some skinheads to viciously murder a black man. The skinheads only connection to Metzger and his group was knowing about them IIRC.

Uh, he did. He won, too. Many, many years ago. Linky.
