Advertisers Ditch Glenn Beck Show at Prompting of Political Group

From the AP/Houston Chronicle:

"A total of 33 Fox advertisers, including Walmart, CVS Caremark, Clorox and Sprint, directed that their commercials not air on Beck's show, according to the companies and ColorofChange.org, a group that promotes political action among blacks and launched a campaign to get advertisers to abandon him. That's more than a dozen more than were identified a week ago.

...

[Beck] was actually on another Fox show July 28 when he referred to Obama as a racist with 'a deep-seated hatred for white people.'”
