Apple has become the latest company to vote with their feet over Glenn Beck and Fox News.

They have banned all advertising - including the new iPad which launches on April 3 - from the Fox network.

It remains to be seen how Rupert Murdoch, who is a businessman first and foremost, will react to this.

Apple is one of the biggest names to pull business from Fox so far.

I want Apple to post all the complaints they get from Fox News viewers about not seeing an Apple ad on a FNC program.

They don't want their product associated with a bipolar blowhard who calls the president a racist and compares the Democratic party to the Nazi's. Beck is certifiable, Apple isn't. Good call. First of many I bet.
