Beck Loses Advertisers for Calling Obama a Racist

Procter & Gamble, Progressive Insurance, and Lawyers.com have stopped running ads on Beck's Fox show, reports the TV Newser blog on Mediabistro. The network itself isn't hurting, however: A spokesman says the companies have simply moved their ads to different shows. Groups such as ColorofChange.org are pressuring advertisers to punish Beck.
