One of Glenn Beck's sponsors saw the light, yall!
Hurrah, some good news!

DIRECTV emailed me and said they have decided "to end their relationship with the Glenn Beck program."

Now, who knows, they might've done that even if nobody had complained...but anyway, it doesn't hurt, and my belief is, it helped.

2. I wrote then as well....
I haven't received a response, but it's great news that they've relented. Advertising on Beck's show is a real time bomb and I can't imagine any rational company supporting him.

4. Last I heard DirectTV was owned by Rupert Murdoch
Something smells fishy to me. Then again, Murdoch was never one to let principle get in the way of making a buck.

8. Wooo Hoooo!!!
I wrote to them as well!! Told them this was the kind of talk that would incite violence and I would drop them if they didn't drop him. I never did hear back from them, though. Glad to hear they're seeing the light. Besides, I really, really didn't want to have to switch back to Dish Network. They were hands-down the worst company I have EVER done business with.
