Our time has come: Targeting O'Reilly, Matthews and Hannity Email Print

There are more and more efforts out there to lobby the companies that advertise on right-wing talk shows to get them to pull their ads. This is an approach that I have advocated for some time based on the fact that this is how groups like the NRA and moral majority have been so successful in dictating the national dialogue. Their constant lobbying not just of politicians but of businesses and advertisers mean that they get listened to and we don't. I am urging you to join me and dozens of others in the blogsphere to fight back and use your consumer and investor muscle to pressure companies to avoid right wing talk shows when they are considering where to spend their advertising dollars. This particular push is about a week old and already we are seeing some signs that we are being noticed. But we need more numbers!

Wait... There's more! (3 comments, 1613 words in story)
