Nestle, Joseph A. Banks, Expedia, Hulu, Johnson & Johnson, Nutrish pet foods, TripAdvisor and Wayfair all announced they would pull their ads from the The Ingraham Angle, in the wake of Hogg's appeal to his 595,000 Twitter followers.
Nutrish said "the comments she has made are not consistent with how we feel people should be treated."
TripAdvisor, through a spokesperson, said the company does not "condone the inappropriate comments made by this broadcaster," CNBC reports.
"In our view, these statements focused on a high school student, cross the line of decency. As such, we have made a decision to stop advertising on that program," the spokesperson said.

I don't have an issue with this. Companies withdrawing support for people/causes they think are bad for business is just good old fashioned capitalism.

poor Laura, let's get a gofundme started for this poor lady, hopefully this doesn't cause her to live on the streets.

At least 12 advertisers say they are pulling their ads from Laura Ingraham’s primetime show on Fox News after the host mocked the Parkland, Fla., teen shooting survivor and activist David Hogg for receiving rejection letters from multiple colleges.
The latest companies to pull their ads from the show are Office Depot and the Atlantis, Paradise Island resort in the Bahamas.

Why is this such a win for you? How is pulling advertising on the highest viewed cable news channel a good business move?
You people (meaning confused, gay, and mentally ill) relish the fact that your party would rather eat it’s own than prosper. It’s oretty sad.

Really? So people are so sensitive that words drive sponsors to flee in mass?
Do you think these sponsors would have lost money if they simply did nothing?

It's growing by the hour currently but I'll try to have an updated list by then.

I noticed you never answered my question about describing Hogg and his friend as children, but yet wanting to treat them as adults when it comes to their influence on national gun policy.
Are they children or adults?

They think they'll lose business by being associated with Ingraham.

I don't know, but they clearly believed they would.

While I certainly support the right of private businesses to conduct their business the way they see fit, past examples have shown that overzealous CEO's somtime act impulsively and not based on the best interest of their company or shareholders.
