TurboTax drops Glenn Beck, whose show has gone without ads for more than a month in the UK.

THINK PROGRESS

Yesterday, StopBeck.com announced that TurboTax has become the 120th advertiser to drop Fox News host Glenn Beck. In an announcement on Twitter, TurboTax stated:

Thanks everyone for your feedback, & for reminding us of what we value. We’ve pulled advertising from the Glenn Beck show.

TurboTax’s decision to pull out of Beck’s show came just two days after the company began running ads, according to StopBeck.com. Additionally, “the broadcast of Glenn Beck’s show in the U.K. has been running without any advertisers for over a month now.” TurboTax’s announcement comes as Beck has begun endorsing Tax Resolution
Services
, the latest in his line-up of questionable endorsement deals.
