You’re probably familiar with the Bill O’Reilly / YearlyKos flap by now. You also probably know that jetBlue asked YearlyKos to pull it’s advertising from their website.

Well, what’s good for the goose is good for the gander!

A reader emailed Lowes about their ads on O’Reilly’s show. They got this response:

Dear Lowe’s Customer,

Thank you for your comments regarding the program, The O’Reilly Factor.

Lowe’s has strict guidelines that govern the placement of our advertising. Our company advertises primarily in national, network prime-time television programs and on a variety of cable outlets.

Lowe’s constantly reviews advertising buys to make certain they are consistent with its policy guidelines. The O’Reilly Factor does not meet Lowe’s advertising guidelines, and the company’s advertising will no longer appear during the program.

We are dedicated to providing the best service, products, and shopping environment in the home improvement industry. All three of these are very important to our business, and our customers will always be our number one priority.

We appreciate your contacting us, and hope this information addresses your concerns.

Thank you,

Lowe’s Customer Care

Head on over to Daily Kos and let them know they’re appreciated!
