Reverse Boycott: Let's call and thank advertisers who dropped Beck!
I am thinking it would be a good time to kick Beck and Fox while they are down.

Has anyone ever done a "reverse boycott" in which people called to thank a company and promised to begin using their product?

It would be a great way to reinforce this movement.

Who is with me?

Maybe we could post a list of advertisers who have pulled out and their corporate phone numbers for starts.

8. I know you too well for that...

So what was so stupid about my suggestion?

It is not fawning over corporations I am talking about. Just reinforcing the efforts that seemed to have been effective to this point.
