"The Ingraham Angle."

Mister-JrMister-Jr Posts: 30,019 AG

More advertisers dropped Fox News personality Laura Ingraham on Friday, two days after she mocked a Florida school shooting survivor online.

At least 11 companies had said by Friday afternoon that they would pull their ads from "The Ingraham Angle."

On Wednesday, Ingraham tweeted, "David Hogg Rejected By Four Colleges To Which He Applied and whines about it."

    Funny how the leftist are all for free speech, as long as they agree with it.  

    *i don't think it was wise or classy for her to point out that the kid was whining. Most people don't get accepted to every college they apply to. 
    But, her opinion expressed was far far less demeaning than some of which he has called other people.

    Others will step up and fill their ad dollar slots.

    It’s another internet crock. 
    Have any of you wondered how a lot of personal info is used? It’s not just to buy things or hack bank accounts. You can bet a lot of you have had your info used for email blasts and fake tweets to companies saying your going to boycott them.

    And just what did she say that was so horrible??
    the truth maybe????

    Free speech does not mean that the speaker is free of consequences from their speech .

    I 1000% agree.  My point is that we often see leftist screaming, protesting,etc when someone is voicing a different perspective.  

    Perfect example: Ben Shapiro, Steven crowder- 2 wildly popular conservatives.   Who, when they go give lectures at colleges; the leftist attempt to shut down the event.  Plenty of video on YouTube because of it.

    Agreed. That kids needs to suck it up and stop whining. Apply to some more colleges.

    And, likely the the college denial was done prior to the kids becoming "celebrities".  

    Rejection on is a part of life.  

    But, the immediate call to boycott  by the libtard was expected.

    What is great is that we now know what companies are involved so we can choose to boycott the boycotters.

    See how it works.

    What you really mean is, except if you can do it under the cover of race, or in this case age.

    It's amazing how you can read people's minds. Why is ok for you to have free speech but not others?

    There is a reason she is still single. 

    She has a toxic personality.

    That doesn't build much good will for her advertisers.

    The Fox News host Laura Ingraham announced late on Friday that she will take the next week off, after 11 advertisers dropped her show over her mockery of a teenage survivor of the Florida school shooting.

    How is replying with the truth to a poster with a lot of history on this forum, displaying that  in any way.

    It's not a big deal to the majority of Americans. It's huge to the Facebook and Twitter dummies. One day the king will instruct his minions to go to work and feed their families instead of spending hours per day whining like children

    We throw it back at them with facts which causes them to run home crying. Wanting boycotts and the such.
