Stardock Boycotting UPS? [Updated]

[Sep 28, 2009, 6:15 pm ET] - Share - Viewing Comments

Stardock boss Brad Wardell has updated his Facebook page with his objection to UPS pulling its advertising from FOX in objection to some of the comments by conservative host Glenn Beck (calling President Obama a "racist" in particular). Apparently Wardell is a fairly staunch conservative as well, which prompts him to say that Stardock does "a non-trivial amount of shipping with UPS" and that if they did not reverse their position on this, he would take this business to FedEx. Boycotts are somewhat common, but this is the first time we can recall the treat of a company being boycotted over their own boycott. Thanks GamePolitics via The Angry Bear. Update: Brad Wardell sent a statement about this story clarifying his position.

The irony here is that people will use media from Keith Olbermann, who essentially the exact same thing as Glenn Beck, just on the opposite side, to refute Beck's credibility.

Eh I put the * at the bottom for a reason That said, I don't really think they are the same. Olbermann is often more like John Stewart or Colbert, mocking people like Beck. Just as he was in that video. Every now and then he does go to far into putting his message into things. I wish he wouldn't because he can be quite entertaining when he sticks to what he is good at, but hey that is why I said I wasn't endorsing him, just showing one of Beck's illogical and far out theories.
