The parent company, Unilever [trading symbol UN] was referring all correspondence and complaints about Goldberg's hate-speech, to Slim-Fast's marketing dept. A great many angry conservatives also reported, their successes in reaching sympathetic ears at Slim-Fast: (I just received a call from Slimfast), and (Goodbye Slimfast!).
Wall Street has noticed, as Neil Cavuto reported yesterday; the 2% drop in Unilever's stock price Tuesday was attributed a new Conservative boycott of its subsidiary Slim-Fast.
That amounts to a one-day LOSS of $1.2 BILLION dollars for shareholders!
AM: could we please keep this in breaking news?
Bump !! Hey, lookie ! :^D
Thats a HUGE one-day drop.
I use Miracle Whip over Hell-Mans anyway.
Woohoo!! Now if we could destroy the Democrats that way.
Whoopi yanked from Slim-Fast webpages

Please let me know if you want ON or OFF my General Interest ping list!. . .don't be shy.
Oh great, this means another drivelling screed from Tim Robbins or some other moron blathering on about a "chill wind" blah blah blah.
When will Hollyweird learn that freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences??
It's too bad that Whoopi wasn't taken to task for her multiple abortions. Ah well. A person who does something like that is morally stunted to begin with, so such a person is bound to do other evil things as well and be caught in the act of doing something.
Wow! Drop actually attributed to the boycott? Hollywood may never wake up, but the corporations will.
Just damn.
In the fall of 2003 the Dixie Chicks starred in a broadcast TV commercial for Lipton Ice Tea which made a tongue-in-cheek reference to the corporate blacklisting and the grassroots backlash: in the tea spot, the Chicks are about to give a stadium concert when the electricity suddenly goes out - but they manage to electrify the stadium all by themselves, belting out a rousing "a capella" version of "Set Me Free" to the raving cheers of the fans.
Seems like Unilever likes to hire big-mouthed Leftists to represent their company. I say, let's keep up the boycott of Unilever and keep their stock falling!
This is excellent news. I've always been under the impression that when an entertainer stooped to doing commercials, they needed the money. So without this added income, I wonder if Whoopie will finally appreciate the tax cuts initiated by President Bush. Maybe when she sobers up.
I've been a Slim-Fast as well as other Unilever products user for years. Since the vulgar hate attack of President Bush by Whoopi Goldberg, my family has made the decision to no longer purchase ANY Unilever products until the company publically fires Ms. Goldberg.
This is not a partisan decision by my family - it's a decision based on decency and fear for our country. The hate and bias of those guiding the media, politicians, some corporations and the entertainment field must be stopped if we are to survive. We will do our small part by not financing that hate with purchases.
Unilever could be a leader in corporate America by promoting all Americans stand united against the terrorists who want to kill us all.......rather than paying and giving voice to the hate-America voice. You decide - we have.
Keep Whoopi-
Lose my whole family as customers-
You decide-
Bye-
Great detective work, FL.
That is a huge one day drop....
A very fine post. Thanks!

Get that never-was potty-mouth off of my TV, please. She is offensive. She has nothing worthwhile to add to any political discourse. I'd say she should be ashamed, but that would be impossible. So I'll say that YOU should be ashamed, and should rectify this situation as soon as possible.
As Michael Jordan said upon being asked why he didn't weigh in with his political opinions, "HALF MY CUSTOMERS ARE REPUBLICANS."
