(NEW YORK) - It isn't news nor is it slanted to say that FOX News has always been the propaganda arm of the Republican Party, willing to twist facts and even lie to promote the Republican agenda.
But the election of President Obama in 2008 pushed FOX News into outright hate-mongering and incitement of violence, which is intolerable in a democracy.
Tell FOX News advertisers to cancel their ads
Here are some examples of intolerable hate speech and incitement to violence:
6/30/09 Glenn Beck agreed with guest who urged bin Laden to attack U.S. with nuclear weapons.
7/25/09 Neil Cavuto and guest said health care reform will impose universal euthanasia like "Soylent Green."
7/28/09 Glenn Beck said "The President has exposed himself as a guy ... who has a deep-seated hatred for white people ... or the white culture... This man is a racist."
8/6/09 Glenn Beck "joked" about giving Speaker Pelosi a glass of wine with poison.
We join with FoxNewsBoycott and Color Of Change in this boycott, which is already producing outstanding results.
In the first week, 11 advertisers cancelled their FOX ads: Campbell Soup, Chrysler, General Motors, Kellogg, Kraft Foods, Lawyers.com, Nestle, Pfizer, Proctor & Gamble, Progressive Insurance, and Walmart. Read the latest update.

Nice people!
Fox News has gone a bit too far by being a bit TOO complicit in going along with Hussein’s lies.
But they’re doing better than the rest of the mainstream media. :)
Yo Bobby boy! No need to get all “wee wee’d up”! Run down to Walmart and buy yourself a remote for your TV. You can also get DirecTV and block FOX the way I do CNN, PBS and PMSNBC. It’s not rocket science but it is THE FIRST AMENDMENT. Something this FOX viewer fought for by the way.
I stopped reading there. Agree to these people's premises and you'll find yourself in their weird fantasy world.
Fox is where the viewers are. It is where the advertiser will be too. You could blow a lot of moeny into the wind advertising on Hardball.
Funny how the left complain that the Republicans have Fox News meanwhile, CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC, the New York Times, Washington Post, Huffington Post, must I go on are ALL in the tank for Obama..so what, Fox News leans right, not everyone on Fox News is a Conservative, hint hint, Shepard Smith/WHOREaldo Rivera
Since this is an opinion piece and not news... it is what it is... a liberal rag taking marching orders from a bankrupt entity... the NYT.
They don’t seem to mind that CNN is the propoganda minstry for Obama and democraps...
Liberals hate dissent, and I have some Libtard Family Members that can prove my point.
"Editor: Is that all you guys can ever do... drop right into the name calling stage? Fox News is a hate group and it is 100% behind big business and portraying the poor American as something less. The truth is that only a small and frustrated aspect of the American population even watches that channel. Fox does not tell the truth, for that we should all be angry. "
These people are seriously deranged!

________________________________
Yes and the outstanding results are that Beck’s ratings are through the roof, you stupid idiots.
Without seeing the show I know that Glen Beck did not seriously state Bin Laden should attack the United States with nuclear weapons.
As for the remark about Obama being a racist, that followed (I believe) Obama’s knee jerk criticism of the police and extemporaneous diatribe about blacks living in fear of the police.
And then there is Van Jones, Wright, Ayers, Pfleger .....
Smoke and mirrors. Advertisers rotate their ads. No way are they giving up on Beck. Capitalism lives, at least for now. Buy from his advertisers and make it a point, e-mails, etc., to make it a point that you heard about their product on his show.
We could post our comments below this article!
politely of course!
Bob Fertik is one of the far left loons who was trying to get cellphone numbers of administration officials to publish on his “blog” several years ago. He is a nutjob and belongs in the trash heap with Van Jones and his ilk.
They’re children. I can conclude nothing less. They’ve been told that they can’t just take the other kids’ toys (read: our income) and they’re throwing a temper tantrum. They’re not capable of seeing the fact that they’re in the wrong — rather, if we adamantly assert that we WILL NOT be forced to buy medical insurance, houses, cars, etc. for complete and total strangers, then we’re the ogres. It’s no different when a five year old cries, “I hate you!” when mommy and daddy tell him he can’t have something. We’re ironically a “hate group” because “total strangers” doesn’t discriminate — it includes everyone, including every last black person who doesn’t have insurance. Of course, it includes every white, Latino, or Asian person as well, but the children don’t see that. They only see the fact that the Hateful Right won’t give blacks free health insurance, so we’re selfish, hateful, and racist.
The only appropriate response is the response of any responsible parent: to not bend an inch in the face of a tantrum.
That’s right, Lefties, we’re NOT giving you free health insurance. And, yes, that INCLUDES blacks, greens, and any other color of the rainbow you care to include.
Feel free to call us racist.
Feel free to call us hateful.
Feel free to bang your fists on the table, scream at the top of your lungs, shout how much you hate us, how you’d like to see us deported, imprisoned, re-educated, or murdered.
Feel free to say whatever you like about us, as loudly as you want.
We’re not bending an inch.
