This is personal for me. As a business owner I receive several shipments a week from UPS, and I've been badgering them relentlessly by email, giving them a deadline of September 1st before I move to FedEx and make my vendors move with me. It wasn't a hollow threat, either, inconvenient as such a move would have been. I've never been part of a successful boycott before!

And now, not only UPS but a total of 33 companies have joined the boycott, including Clorox, CVS, and Sprint.

While the UPS move is "temporary," UPS is still the first company to remove their advertising from Fox News altogether, instead of just directing that ads be placed in other advertising slots.

I've never watched Glenn Beck myself (shudder) but I understand that the UPS logo is shown introducing his show.

The fallout from advertisers may well spill over into other controversial cable news shows.

The shows present a dilemma for advertisers, who usually like a "safe" environment for their messages. The Olbermanns, Hannitys, O'Reillys, Maddows and Becks of the TV world are more likely to say something that will anger a viewer, who might take it out on sponsors. They also host the most-watched programs on their networks. "This is a good illustration of that conundrum," said Rich Hallabran, spokesman for UPS Stores

UPDATE: Here is a copy of the email I sent to UPS after initially receiving a form letter from their representative, Dora. I included several You Tube clips, including the poisoning of Nancy Pelosi:
