I also just read that UPS is going to pull all adds from Fox. Now this is kind of a big deal since the others stayed with fox, they just wanted off that nuts show. I always said Beck would be fine because Fox was not losing money, only Becks show. UPS may be starting a trend. I will link the ups story later.
