I don't agree with this, but it's no different to the boycotting of companies by the left due to advertising in papers or TV channels that they don't like.

But the thing is, boycotting by 'the left' tends to have better success because they tend to have a moral point, whereas boycotting by 'the right' doesn't tend to get anywhere as their motives are generally based on hatred, bigotry and pig-headedness, and not as may people are willing to admit they think along those lines.
