Why Do The Following Corporations Boycott Glenn Beck? The first reason is that Glenn Beck described as racism, a phrase that Barack Obama had written in his first autobiography: “white folks' greed runs a world in need.” The other reason is that Glenn Beck stated that the progressive catch phrase “social justice” is code for communism and Nazism. Bad Boy Beck! No Freedom of Speech for You!
