According to Democrats.com, Obama has pressured these companies into pulling their ads from FOXnews.
Let's boycott these wimps and let them see that losing the mainstream dollar hurts more than losing the radical left dollar:
Campbell Soup
Chrysler
General Motors
Kellogg
Kraft Foods
Lawyers.com
Nestle
Pfizer
Proctor & Gamble
Progressive Insurance
Fertik claims the “boycott” of Progressive Insurance has been successful. Perhaps there is a current contract between Fox and Progressive that needs to expire.
Proctor & Gamble is still advertising on FOX News.
I’ll bet this whole list is BOGUS Wishfull thinking by libs
What? You aren’t boycotting GM already?
I’m another who doesn’t watch the commercials, even those sponsoring my favorite programs. Still, it might be a good idea to start paying more attention (well, at least until we get the sponsor’s name anyway) and dropping off a thank you mail.
If you Google “pulls advertising” in quotes, you’ll be hard pressed to find ANY story from a legitimate news source.
Smells like BS.
That’s the fun thing about articles like this that have no link, no attribution ... but big charges. I’ll wait.
If true, any of these companies, or even Fox, could blow this story wide open.
You think the Democrats are lying about their successes? That’s not an unheard of event.
If you convince JR to let me post the link, I’ll do it in a heartbeat. Google Fertik and foxnews if you want to find it yourself.
I’ll let Jim manage this site without my interference.
Well, that's why we exist, eh? To find out the truth? :-)
Democrats.com gets 40,000 monthly unique visitors. It’s a fringe site with no clout. Their claims are dubious at best.
Not a real story. Let’s not get carried away here.
Hmmmmm.....so many contenders....The New York Times, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, Huffingtonpost etc.....the whitehouse website (oh but that one doesn’t have adverstising does it) then all of the congress critters. And by best we have to go with ‘worst’ meaning ‘lies the most and therefore attracts alot of socialist leaning people...well and there are the union websites...
Funny that I don’t see those weird, singing GE commercials on FoxNews anymore.
“I heard Glenn Beck say that Progressive has pulled out of his show.”
The lib in charge of Progressive must be a dumb bunny. The head of progressive has really thrown money to the left.
People who watch Fox News are generally conservatives...who tend to be responsible and go to work and make enough money to buy insurance.
Progressive needs to sponsor the lib losers on MSNBC, etc.
Sorry man... a heavily biased source isn’t proof...
FNC channel is having no troubles , Obama and democrats have boosted their ratings beyond belief. Obama pressuring those companies to pull ads would seem to be illegal, maybe they mean democrat groups.
Hell, they got a good theme song anyway.
Their email list is much larger than their unique visitor count.
Maybe, but I saw a Progressive commercial on teh Dave Ramsey show on Fox Business Channel, so I’m not convinced that everything on that list is correct.
Fine with me. If they don’t want to persuade me to buy their products, so be it.
