Stop the race baiting and the undermining of democracy!

For the last three weeks, Glenn Beck and his cronies at FOX News have been using racist lies and rhetoric to undermine the Obama Administration and policies for good jobs, a healthy environment, media diversity, and a strong public health care option. Join the Center for Media Justice and support the Color of Change’s call on advertisers to stop sponsoring the Glenn Beck Program!

FOX’s Glenn Beck on Obama: “This president has exposed himself as a guy over and over and over again who has a deep-seated hatred for white people…this guy is, I believe, a racist.”

Beck is on a campaign to convince the American public that President Obama’s agenda is about serving the needs of black communities at white people’s expense. It’s repulsive, divisive and shouldn’t be on the air.

Related actions:

• Watch, rate, and share this video on Glenn Beck’s smear campaigns
