This is excellent news. After Think Progress managing editor Amanda Terkel got ambushed by Bill O'Reilly's producer on vacation last weekend, Think Progress launched an online campaign to pressure O'Reilly's advertisers to pull their support for his show.

Sadly, Amanda is just one of at least 40 different victims of O'Reilly's Harassment Machine. O'Reilly has hired producers whose job is to track, harass, and intimidate anyone whom O'Reilly perceives as an opponent. That's not "journalism" -- that's a mafia-style operation. And we need to put an end to it.

Tell O'Reilly's advertisers that you want them to issue a clear statement explaining their opposition to O'Reilly's "ambush journalism.

Today we get news of the first success story: UPS has pulled its ads from O'Reilly.

In response to our Stop Supporting The O'Reilly Harassment Machine campaign...Today UPS announced it will stop advertising on O'Reilly's show. Here is the statement UPS emailed out just moments ago:

Thank you for sending an e-mail expressing concern about UPS advertising during the Bill O'Reilly show on FOX News. We do consider such comments as we review ad placement decisions which involve a variety of news, entertainment and sports programming. At this time, we have no plans to continue advertising during this show.

Go HERE to up the pressure on O'Reilly's other advertisers. Going after their wallet is the best way to go after Fox News and it's working.

After getting stalked by Billo's producer, ThinkProgress blogger Amanda Terkel fights back on Olbermann:

A modest proposal: maybe high-profile Democrats should remember this creepy, stalker-ish behavior before giving any more high-profile interviews to a guy like O'Reilly.
