After the jump is the current list of Glenn Beck's remaining sponsors.
On today's program, a Nutrisystem ad ran during the fourth break. Nutrisystem is one of the sponsors that promised to drop Beck. Interestingly the Nutrisystem ad features fellow LDS-er Marie Osmond. I've no idea whether that's just a coincidence or there's a inherent Mormon or beckerhead bias amongst Nutrisystems executives. They're probably using Marie Osmond as their spokesperson simply because she used to be an obese celebrity (and is no longer obese, nor much of a celebrity).
Regardless, Nutrisystem is either a recidivist or Fox News Channel is no longer honoring their sponsor's instructions to not run their ads during Biff's hour-long hate fest. Nutrisystem needs to explain. There's a contact link for Nutrisystem after the jump.

There are two NEW SPONSORs on today's list, The Scooter Store, and CEEL (the Center for Economic and Entrepreneurial Literacy).
Ironically, The SCOOTER Store ad prominently pushes the fact that their target audience is recipients of that socialist government-run program: Medicare.
And, the CEEL is apparently a front-group for notorious astro-turfer Richard Berman.
This is the list of sponsors of the Glenn Beck Show of Tuesday, Sep 29, 2009 which aired on Directv channel 360 on the 101W satellite at 2PM PDT (5PM EDT).

NOTE: In many cases, the contracts the sponsors sign are Run Of Schedule (ROS) contracts. What that means is that they're buying non-specific blocks of air-time and Fox News Channel drops the ads into any open slot. So the sponsor may not even realize their spots are appearing during the Glenn Beck show (they might not even know they're appearing on FNC).
Please tell the sponsor that if they've got a ROS contract with FNC (or their ad agency), that they should ask FNC to modify their ROS contract to specify "No Glenn Beck".
UPDATE: I think it would waste your time contacting sponsors that are striked out. Fox is owned by News Corp, so they're paying themselves for their own air time. And, the Gold Bugs don't give a rat's ass what anyone thinks (they love how Beck terrorizes his own viewers). And any others are blatantly right-wing organizations.
