==Boycotts==
Media Matters has led numerous harassment campaigns targeting companies and organizations that advertise on conservative commentators' television and radio shows, in attempt to remove the commentators from the airwaves. While some of these attacks, including an attack against [[Glenn Beck]] when he was a Fox News anchor, have been quite successful, others, like their attacks on [[Rush Limbaugh]] and [[Sean Hannity]], have been largely unsuccessful.
