What constitutes "hateful speech?" It depends on the views of the individual, or in this case the advocacy group propagating the claim.
Earlier this week, Plymouth, Wisc.-based Sargento Food, Inc., along with several other companies, pulled their advertising from the Fox News Channel's "Glenn Beck" program at the behest of a campaign by Color of Change, an advocacy group.

Cursed are the Cheesemakers,
for they shall see plunging sales.
Let the bastards try to survive on sales to welfare leeches!

Van Jones????
I just did the same.
Sargento has lousy cheese products. I think I bought a ball of their mozzarella, like 30 years ago. Never again. The mozzarella was like rubber. Yuck!
No great loss, Glenn!
Their mozzarella is so hard and rubbery, you could use it as a tennis ball.
Maybe that’s what the welfare leeches do with it.
I asked whether Obama would buy their cheese.
Boycot and let them know!!!

No. Not that he would even if I was. Of course, it’s hard to be hateful around a guy who is always ready to give you a free sample of some of the best cheeses on earth.
I do a lot of cooking and really like good cheese.
I watched yesterday too, watching every day, but I was nervous for Pat Caddell. I hope he has good bodyguards, him and Glenn.
It was riveting information!
FWIW, I emailed Geico, my car insurance company, with my thoughts about them stopping their advertising during Beck’s show.
I think the welfare leeches eat mostly unbranded velveta!
Van Johnson = Van Jones ? lol
yes.. Obama’s green czar....... when you look into this Color Change group they are really something... damn those voters last November is all I can say.
I just spoke with a rep at sargento and she said they pulled their advertising because corporate was uncomfortable with hate speech. I asked what, specifically, Beck said and she referred to the “poisoning the wine” comment. I would suggest any future jokes involve cheese.
maybe Sargento is looking to win the “Government Cheese” contract to replace lost sales.
You have mail.
Okay, I heard back from the Sargento Veep after I replied to her canned letter, she said they do watch his show and pulled their ads because of the Nancy Pelosi drinking poison wine skit last week... said that shocked their mid-west sensibilities.
