Looks like no one is going to take Murdoch's BS it appears:
According to a Washington Post story by Howard Kurtz, about 200 advertisers have "joined a boycott" of Glenn Beck's program, with Apple abandoning Fox News altogether. From the story:
More than 200 companies have joined a boycott of Beck's program, making it difficult for Fox to sell ads. The time has instead been sold to smaller firms offering such products as Kaopectate, Carbonite, 1-800-PetMeds and Goldline International. A handful of advertisers, such as Apple, have abandoned Fox altogether. Network executives say they believe they could charge higher rates if the host were more widely acceptable to advertisers...

... By calling President Obama a racist and branding progressivism a "cancer," Beck has achieved a lightning-rod status that is unusual even for the network owned by Rupert Murdoch. And that, in turn, has complicated the channel's efforts to neutralize White House criticism that Fox is not really a news organization. Beck has become a constant topic of conversation among Fox journalists, some of whom say they believe he uses distorted or inflammatory rhetoric that undermines their credibility.

A good focus on why the health care bill fail kind of short on the dental coverage front .

Someone must have been really bored to write this .

Maybe so or maybe not .

This old man is seriously in shape not like your typical old man.

You have got to stay positive. By doing so, you're giving proper love to your immune system .

The worst 10 video game music tracks ever, and I agree with most of that.

And expect this to be a story you will hear about all day, as craziness goes down in Moscow sadly:
A train at Moscow's Lubyanka metro station was hit on Monday morning by a bomb, a security source told RIA Novosti, killing and injuring many.
Itar-Tass, quoting emergency officials, reported at least 25 people killed after the explosion.
And the number maybe growing as you read this. God bless to the families indeed.

Update 2: Fox News is saying the toll has risen, which is sadly expected.

To Tevin.....Until the morning folks:
