Nearly 20 companies pulled advertising from Fox News host Laura Ingraham's TV show after she made an insulting tweet about 17-year-old Parkland shooting survivor David Hogg. She apologized a day later — solely out of the kindness of her heart and not in response to getting dumped by brands like Hulu, Nestle, TripAdvisor, Liberty Mutual, and Allstate. Nevertheless more advertisers are leaving the show, including Blue Apron and SlimFast.
We were unaware that our ad would be running on The Laura Ingraham Angle last night. We will no longer be advertising on the show, and will be working with our media buying partners to more closely monitor where our ads appear going forward.

We have stopped advertising on the Laura Ingraham show and have no plans to resume in the near future. We are also monitoring all ad placements carefully.

One company, MyPillow, has expressly stated that it will continue to run advertising on Ingraham's show. MyPillow's CEO, Mike Lindell, is the subject of a self-made documentary called The Mike Lindell Story: From crack cocaine to Mar-a-Lago: The unusual journey of the MyPillow man
I did not take my advertising down from @IngrahamAngle and @FoxNews, nor do I intend to. @seanhannity
