Organize liberal thuggery against advertisers took him out. They know how to run bots to generate "outrage".

Of course they did. But if BO didn't have anything to be afraid of/hide, then they wouldn't have been able to pressure advertisers to pull away from his program.

Regardless of ratings, advertisers don't want to be associated with serial sexual harassers, which is what BO is. Many of his transgressions had found their way into the public over the years, but the NYT piece laid most (but not all) of them out in detail and showed BO is a sanctimonious and arrogant piece of shite; thus, advertisers couldn't stomach defending his behavior any longer by continuing to support him and his show.

The Left does this ALL THE TIME. They would be delighted to take out, for example, Hannity or Carlson, but since neither of those two men have skeletons in their closets, they can't pressure advertisers to drop them.

BO is to blame here, as he created the situation that the Left took advantage of to knock him off.

We all know how the game is played. BO (and FOX for continually defending his slimy behavior) simply played it poorly. And they both lost.
