G.E. is too PC on this one.
Management must read the Koran and Haddith to appreciate how correct Paul Harvy is.
Muslim holy scripture repeatedly COMMANDS "good" muslims to kill.
CAIR is a propaganda foil only.

Thanks for the heads up. I will add GE to my boycott along with Heinz and Hormel and anything issuing from France.
Anybody know of any GE subsidiaries that should be added to this boycott?
To: webber
CAIR has said that depicting Osama bin Laden as "the sworn enemy" is "offensive to Muslims"; when President Bush closed the "Holy Land Foundation" for collecting money he said was "used to support the Hamas terror organization," CAIR decried his action as "unjust" and "disturbing"; and the FBI's former chief of counterterrorism, Steven Pomerantz, has even concluded that "CAIR, its leaders and its activities effectively give aid to international terrorist groups."
And it's THAT group that is now attacking Paul Harvey for a single on-air comment... and what's worse, General Electric is listening to them!

Just dumped my GE stock. Seemed like a good time especially since it is sitting right atop its latest attempt to get much over 30. With this in the wind it will likely move south by double digit percentage again.

Must be easy to intimidate an 84 year old man, who in this case happens to have spoken the truth. Muslims do not believe in free speech, it's obvious and Western countries let them in at their own peril.

Political correctness rules corporate staffs and corporate headquarters throughout America. Remember---almost everybody there except the few very old heads at the top (50-ish men who will soon be retired) was educated after the seventies and were brainwashed with liberalism.

Since the ads won't be on P.H. anymore, I won't know how to buy GE light bulbs, will I?

I really like Paul Harvey. He's a well loved man in the U.S. I'll pass this on.
GE can shove it. We've always bought their light bulbs. No more. There's lots of pro-American products out there instead.

PS...If I get any gifts for Christmas with the GE label, I'll return them to the store and spend the cash on something else. Maybe give it to a Christian lobby organization.

Paul Harvey is a true-blue, red-blooded American patriot Paul Harvey was born in 1918. As I understand it, a controversy that has always followed him is that he somehow avoided military service in WWII. Perhaps someone here knows some more details about this.

GE has chosen the wrong side. I support Paul Harvey.
To: webber
I blame Mr. Harvey. He is much too educated to stoop down to ignorant religion-bashing. An apology from him would suffice.

Does GE think that by pulling ads from Harvey, Al Qaeda will spare any of their buildings, factories or business interests in the event one of them pops up on their target list? Can you imagine Bin Laden and Zawahiri sitting around a fire in a cave..."Let us call the freedom fighters back from the [insert GE target here]. They did good thing in pulling ads from infidel Harvey. Divert the big meal to [insert another target here]." Of course, GE does have extensive business interests in the Middle East, stories about two of them follow:
Drilling equipment
Aircraft engines
However, I highly doubt Harvey's statements would have any bearing on those. To my knowledge, Paul Harvey does not have any broadcast affiliates in the Middle East. Further, if that were the reason, the interests themselves would complain, not CAIR.
We have a huge problem in this country if foreign terrorist mouthpiece groups can muscle corporate America the same way Jesse Jackson does.
