Looks like the advertising boycott of the crying hatemonger is having some effect. Faux News continues to deny this story, but that's to be expected.
Kudos to the advertisers and especially all those people that have let these companies know that they will not stand for a ***** such as Beck referring to the POTUS as a "racist."

Tipsters inside Fox News tell us Glenn Beck's vacation this week from his Fox News show was not planned. We hear Beck was told to take this week off to let some of the heat surrounding him die down. That heat began July 28 on "Fox & Friends" when Beck said he thought Pres. Obama has "a deep-seated hatred for white people," adding, "This guy is, I believe, a racist."
In the days and weeks that followed an organization called ColorofChange.org mobilized an effort to get advertisers to pull their spots from Beck's show. Earlier this month, a Fox News spokesperson told TVNewser that the advertisers simply moved their spots from Beck to other programs, "so there has been no revenue lost."
But the list of advertisers grew to 20 and so did the resolve inside FNC that something more should be done.
A Fox News spokesperson denied our accounts and simply told us, "Glenn Beck will back on Monday." But several sources inside FNC confirm that this is a forced vacation.
