This is from Newsmax, under the headline, "UPS: We Didn’t Boycott O’Reilly’s Show":
On March 31, Keith Olbermann said this about O’Reilly on MSNBC’s “Countdown”:
“He also reiterated his delusion about the It Happened to Alexa Foundation, where Bill-O was thoroughly criticized for having the gall to address a fundraiser for rape victims, after twice publicly blaming rape victims, then sending a producer to stalk a woman who wrote a blog post about his hypocrisy.
“UPS promptly dropped out as an advertiser in protest of Bill-O’s victimization of Amanda Terkel of ThinkProgress.org.”
Quite a story, but there's a catch. It's not true:
But UPS has issued statement from its national spokesman Norman Black: “We are writing to clarify our statement of last Friday because it appears to have been misinterpreted. UPS has not ‘pulled’ any advertising from Fox News nor has the company taken a position on the ‘ThinkProgress’ campaign. Our intent on Friday simply was to note that UPS does not have any pending advertising plans with the O’Reilly show.”
Keith Olbermann lying?
