O'Reilly pretty much demolished this Stinson guy. His show called up all the sponsors, and they denied that Stinson's group was the reason they've stopped advertising. As O'Reilly pointed out, it's now post-Christmas, so naturally advertisers are going to be changing things around. He challenged Stinson to produce any sort of written proof. Stinson mumbled that maybe he could come up with an email or something. Pretty weak.

Sounds like they capitulated to pressure....I'd love to see more of us write them in particular.
