I've been reading the last couple of days that Laura Ingraham is in trouble with some of her advertisers. Seems she berated the young Hogg boy.

He took to twitter to start a boycott of her advertisers who then promptly dropped her show from their ad buys.

Not that I watch her show very often, but I find it troubling that a person can loose their livelihood for criticizing a public figure.

Many liberals have shad it was unfair for her to point our Hogg wasn't accepted to several colleges. I say since he has been seeking any media attention he can get, he should put on his big boy pants and take some criticism as the adult he wants to be recognized as rather than claim to be a little boy immune from public comment.

Ingraham stepped in it big time. Social media is a powerful tool. Conservatives should learn to use it.

Plenty of people on our side who boycott too.

The truth is that if you boycott everybody that you don't agree with you're not going to survive. You will eventually run out of places to shop, stuff to wear, things to drive, and food to eat.

In shocking news, liberals can say anything they want about anyone and it's "free speech." Conservatives are held to a much different standard. Liberal are all for free speech, but only if they approve of the message.

Hogg has double protected status: He's a liberal and a victim, first of the shooting (yeah, there's the issue about where he actually was) and now of Laura Ingraham's "hateful words."

Liberals are deeply intertwined in social networking to the point of controlling the "opinion" of the masses (as long as your opinion agrees with theirs).

My wife does farcebook, and was just banned for 30 days for merely agreeing with a post that suggested that transgender people are in need of psychiatric help. Agree with above; conservatives need to catch up in this particular area.

Regardless of anything she said, it's the left's tactic to bully to try to get their own way. Freedom of Speech only works in one direction for them.

What baffles me is how stupid so many are about how quickly and where from Pajama Boy Hogg got that list of advertisers to use to solicit boycotts. Can we spell S-O-R-O-S funded groups?

The Hogg kid is a dick and a sorry ass Soros baitfish. Those companies better hope they did there demographics right or their boycott will blow back on them...

As far as I'm concerned, she did nothing wrong based on the original tweet:



Fox can go pound sand for falling for this leftist trick. What a bunch of weenie pussies.

I agree. Laura did nothing wrong.
Fox should stick by her and find new advertisers.

I've gotten more than four ding letters in my life.

Maybe I can be a victim too!

This little punk needs to grow up.

You have to prioritize your life and pick your battles. I am sure that every air carrier has some political leaning or made some donation to something I don't like. But Southwest didn't loan a bunch of planes to the parkland assholes. Delta did. Since the second amendment is the issue I care about most I will choose other air travel even though I may not agree with everything they have ever done.

Then you have to let the company know.

I found it fascinating that regarding the Ingraham incident Hogg was quoted as saying basically "I won't attack her personally but I did immediately go after her advertisers".

As if that is somehow the moral and correct response and he "isn't stooping to her level".

When did going after someones livelihood over a disagreement, or even an insult, become the "right" way to respond??

I see boycotts as consumer-driven, and this is NOT. IMHO, Everytown, USA and other lefty orgs, perhaps the Tides Foundation, used their billionaire status (Soros, Bloomberg) to have advertisers pulled. And, it's a setup. The punk Hogg has been out dropping the eff bomb and calling NRA members murderers, likely hoping for a response so the economic terrorists could jump in.

In the aftermath of Parkland activist David Hogg calling for Fox News host Laura Ingraham's advertisers to sever ties with her show, at least 11 of them have done so.

CBS News reports that while many have pulled their ads, some have not cut ties with Ingraham's show, such as Gillette, Advil, and Progressive Insurance.

But companies such as Expedia and Johnson & Johnson stopped their ads after Ingraham shared an article about Hogg not being accepted into certain schools:

Atlantis, Paradise Island
Jenny Craig
Nutrish
Hulu
TripAdvisor
Wayfair
Stitch Fix
Expedia
Nestlé
Johnson & Johnson
Office Depot
“The decision of an adult to personally criticize a high school student who has lost his classmates in an unspeakable tragedy is not consistent with our values. We do not plan to continue advertising on this particular program,” Wayfair told HuffPost.
