In my opinion, Fox (the network) in general has some morality issues. Better yet, boycott any one who advertises on Fox. Write that company a letter letting them know why you are not buying their product.

I don't agree. There is something wrong with everything we buy, not just what Exxon sells. If we boycott them or Fox, we might as well boycott everything !
If I live in California and don't like the Governor, should I boycott California? Who's to say the rest of the Governors in other states aren't just as bad?
I don't like Exxon either , but , enough's enough .
Look for a better solution and go to the political or environmental section ,
not the baseball section .
Sorry if I somehow missed your point .

I work in television. I don't understand boycotting a station or a network because you don't agree with their advertising. First, it doesn't hurt them at all, unless you happen to be lucky enough to be registered with Nielsen's rating service. Second, the network/station generally doesn't have a lot of control over the advertisers. I suppose you would rather have them lose a lot of money rather than have a sponsor that you don't agree with. Everyone will always be offended by something, so I guess we shouldn't ever have advertising. That's hardly practical.
Exxon Mobil is a legal company that sells a legal product. They are having some image issues, so it makes sense for them to run an image advertising campaign to try to correct that. Why can't they advertise?
