Somewhere a James Toddy weeps.

Ace Hardware has resumed advertising on Laura Ingraham’s Fox News show after initially saying it would pull advertising.

A spokesperson for Ace Hardware had told The Wrap last week that it did “not have any plans to nationally advertise on Ingraham’s show in the future.”

However, a company spokeswoman backtracked on that statement in an email to The Hill Friday. The development was first reported by The Wrap.

“The information we had at the time of the initial request was incomplete and we apologize for that,” an Ace Hardware spokeswoman said in the email.

“Advertising on any network or show, is in no way an endorsement from Ace of the content contained or spoken within that program. We appreciate the different points of view from our customers, and believe people should be treated with respect and civility,” the spokeswoman said.

“At this time, we have not altered our current media schedule; however, we regularly review our media strategy,” she added.

The move marks the first time that a company has publicly resumed advertising on Ingraham’s program after pulling support in the wake of her comments on Parkland high school shooting survivor David Hogg. LINK

Well, I guess they read my email and revised their position accordingly. Good for them. I will resume my relationship with my local Ace dealer.

David Hogg and his ilk don’t shop at Ace. Me and my ilk do shop at Ace.

Speaking of advertising on Laura Intraham's show... CNBC was advertising on there the other night. Did Hogg call for a boycott of the NBC family?

Haven’t heard from or seen this cocksucker’s face in a while. I’d like to keep it that way.

Good for Laura!

So does this make only 17 sponsorships she's lost since she made her comments about David Hogg?

It's like you think it's a zero sum game this advertising thing.

My bad, Buzzfeed actually has the number at 26.

She's getting closer to zero on a weekly basis.

I agree. I think it's fricking hysterical that she's losing sponsors left and right.

She's not going off air.

She'll be fine.

She'll have all the sponsorship she ever had in very short order and this whole thing will be a memory.

Live with it.

It took us a week to finally realize our majority customer base was conservative.

Why are they pussyfooting here

Do they think any liberal needs a home improvement store? Most liberals look at a hammer and think it's some kind of dildo

Camera Hogg doesn't just attack cancer patients, he's a cancer himself. Never has a kid deserved a mega arse whipping like that piece of shite.
