"I can confirm that we have instructed our media buyer not to buy any advertising that would appear during the Glenn Beck Show. We market our products to people regardless of their political affiliations, yet we do not want to be associated with hateful speech used by either liberal or conservative television hosts."And I can confirm I will never buy another Sargento product again. I am writing to Barbara Gannon and I urge other Freepers to do so too

Any company that boycotts free speech... I will boycott them. We should do a nation campaign on it.

SC Johnson has NOT pulled their ads.
See thread HERE
Go to DefendGlenn.com to contact all advertisers and either thank them for sticking with Glenn, or warn them if they have canceled. Keep the pressure on. As Glenn would say "we Surround THEM".

I’ll be boycotting those who boycott Beck.
Stand for something, or fall for anything.

I would advise anyone to not buy Sargento cheese or any of the products these people have..I think it taste like rotton socks smell so never bought it again..If they want to boycott Glenn then we need to boycott all the people that boycott Glenn..The ones that don't boycott will make more money..I guess Sargento wants to go down with Obama..
People do not buy Sargnto..if you have nay take it back to the store and tell them you want your money back..

The funny part is that one company makes cleaning products. The other makes premium cheese. I’d bet that conservatives use a lot more of their products than liberals.

Thank you for the email address. I actually DID buy Sargento cheese on a regular basis. I will NOT buy them again (unless they come out and apologize to Beck).

Amazing how thinned skinned those advertizers are. It’s ok to have that commercial of the gal eating the whopper with the juice running down her mouth. But Glen Beck is evil? I think not.
Johnson product goes on no buy list for me.
To: Behind Liberal Lines
And I can confirm I will never buy another Sargento product again. I am writing to Barbara Gannon and I urge other Freepers to do soWe are doing the same and in addition we are going out and buying thier competitors products and including the label with bar code in the protest letter........show them you have moved away, show them the money sprinting away from them.

Seems like good sense when it comes to business is to stay neutral in regards to public politics. Why tick off customers be they conservatives, liberals or others. Keep the political opinions in the personal realm. IMHO.

Does anyone realize how much purging of cleaning supplies will be necessary to get rid J&J’s products?
I guess we can all just go with baking soda and vinegar.

You have to laugh at Geico’s hypocritical email reply to a Freeper who contacted them.
To paraphrase, they said they pulled their ads because they are not political and don’t want the message of their ads to be lost BY INFLAMMATORY STATEMENTS.
Hey, PR dolts at Geico, when you mis-characterize an opinion stated on observation as INFLAMMATORY, you are making a political statement.
Eff Geico and stomp on that bug-eyed, ugly little green turd they use as a mascot.

Find a good janitorial supply house in your area,you will be much happier. I know you buy a gallon instead of a quart but its worth it and the product is better.

I just threw their fricken cheese in the garbage! I live in WI. We will see how many CHEESE HEADS buy their Liberal CHEESE! The Rats have ruined this state!
Herb Kohl is video tapping his town hall meeting. I ask every one I know to boycott all Kohl Dept. Stores! Kohl is a bald headed COWARD and so is Fiengold and Doyle The Boil!
