It's a win/win; the left can boycott companies that advertise on Beck and we can boycott the one company that has pulled out of FNC all together. Democracy at it's finest. Below is the contact info for UPS:

Please. I can guarantee you that a lot of right-wing women (and NON right-wing women like me) do home shopping (TV and/or online) and we depend on UPS to deliver our packages. No way, Jose, are we boycotting UPS. No political tool is going to tear us and our home-shopping and UPS delivery guys and gals away. That's one thing we women stand united in. You can bet on that. You dare to get between women and their shopping? You will have a war on your hands like you've never seen; the townhall meetings are child's play.

Actually, I find a enterprise that would intentionally turn its back on 50% of the population to make a political statement than to do everything they can to increase thier profits very stupid.

Haha you think 50% of the people in America are going to boycott UPS? You actually believe that even a significant amount of people care that much? No, city data does not represent America. No one cares that UPS pulled their sponsorship because Beck accused the president of being a racist when its obvious he isn't, and intelligent people aren't surprised that there is some consequence to that. You think you can go on television, say whatever lies you want about the leader of our nation, and no one is going to care? Please, you and your ilk have been exposed, the nation is abandoning you, and republicans in general will soon be a thing of the past.
