It’s not just lowes pulling out..

“TLC has a reality series called “All-American Muslim” which has aired four out of a planned eight episodes.  The program follows five Lebanese American families in Dearborn, Michigan…A group called the Florida Family Association (FFA), initiated an advertiser boycott against what it describes as a “propaganda show,” contacting companies whose commercials appear during the broadcast and asking them to quit. So far, the organization claims, nearly 20 companies have agreed to pull their ads from the series at their urging.  **  The FFA website provided a “click here” easy action form to do this. Here is a list of companies that they claim to have succeeded in convincing to cancel their advertising.”
