SaysWho? Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Tucker Carlson said immigrants make the U.S. ‘poorer and dirtier.’ Four companies have pulled ads. Quote Carlson has been a frequent critic of immigration. The Washington Post’s Philip Bump previously reported that since taking over the prime-time slot shortly before the 2016 election, Carlson has been “a fervent advocate for Trump’s hard-right position on immigration.” In March, Carlson voiced concern that America’s demographics were changing too quickly without “debate.” Quote “Our customer base and our workforce reflect the diversity of our great nation, something we take great pride in,” the company said. “We will not be advertising on Mr. Carlson’s show in the coming weeks as we reevaluate our relationship with his program.” ... NerdWallet, a personal finance company, pulled its advertising and said that it will be reevaluating future airtime during “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” “If our review determines that a certain show’s content doesn’t align with our company values, we take commensurate and appropriate action. That’s what we’re doing in this instance,” company spokesperson Keely Spillane told The Washington Post in a statement. SmileDirectClub and Nautilus, the parent company of fitness training equipment brand Bowflex, also confirmed asking Fox News to refrain from running their commercials during Carlson’s show, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Employment search engine Indeed.com requested the same from the network more than a month ago, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I read that he lost one sponsor the other night when he said this. Good to see more dropping out. I don't know who the worst is on Fox these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a race to the bottom... and with their new subscription service, they won't be beholden to advertiser anymore so it's only going to get worse.

brucoe Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I wouldn't have a problem with a company advertising on Fox News, but I'd have serious problems with any company advertising on this guy's program or Sean Hannity's program. Both are adventures in cesspoolism. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 Guys I was referring to Monti Nehlar. Yes, I intentionally scrambled the words in her name to be cryptic. You'll cringe once you find out who. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legend Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 "We're not intimidated. We plan to try to say what's true until the last day." First, lol at Carlson stating the truth. Second, I really wish people would stop using the word "truth" when they mean "my values." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaysWho? Posted December 18, 2018 Author Share Posted December 18, 2018 Not many people have worked on every big cable news network, and PBS, and been bad in each one. The only thing I found left-field isn't that he became more partisan on Fox, but that I don't quite remember such an anti-immigrant streak to him on other networks.

TwinIon Posted December 18, 2018 Share Posted December 18, 2018 I'm happy to see these sponsors leave, but it's always kinda funny to see where their line is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
