My email to Palin's sponsors:
Dear (Insert applicable name)
I am aware that your product, xxxx, is currently being targeted by individuals opposed to your purchase of legitimate advertising space during the TLC show "Sarah Palin's Alaska". I am writing to let you know that, while there may be individuals who seek to silence their political opponents by resorting to such silly tactics, the majority of ordinary Americans do not.
I hope that your company chooses to ignore this intellectually challenged, albeit vocal, minority and continues to advertise wherever best suits your target market.
Thank you,
XXXXX

Dear Wal Mart,
Thank you for supporting free speech by targeting a demographic that may wish to shop at your store. I hadn't thought about making a special trip out your way, but decided to try today after I heard about a boycott planned due to your marketing efforts on TLC that happened to also include advertising during Sara Palin's show.
I found your store to be inviting and a positive change over what I had noticed a few years ago. I'll be back.
