Why does this guy still have a job? It seems like the whole point of being a journalist is to check the facts and report the truth.
Seven companies announced Wednesday that they will no longer advertise on Sean Hannity's nightly show on Fox News.
Cars.com, the automotive classified site, was the first to announce that it was pulling its commercials from the popular 10pm nightly talk show Hannity, which has devoted extensive airtime to a conspiracy theory surrounding a murdered Democratic Party official.
'The fact that we advertise on a particular program doesn’t mean that we agree or disagree, or support or oppose, the content,' Cars.com said Wednesday in a statement.*
'We don’t have the ability to influence content at the time we make our advertising purchase. In this case, we’ve been watching closely and have recently made the decision to pull our advertising from Hannity.'*
Six other advertisers followed suit, according to BuzzFeed.
They include two mattress companies, Leesa and Casper; exercise bike maker Peloton; military family insurer USAA; Crowne Plaza Hotels; and Ring, which provides outdoor home security.

What will Fox do if they lose Hannity too? Tucker Carlson can only do so many stupid looks in a day.

You know how when you look at someone and you can just read them perfectly, Hannity is that guy for me. So trust me when I say, Hannity is a shit bag of the highest caliber.

Wonder if CNN/MSNBC will lose any sponsers with their 24/7 coverage of the Trump/Russia conspiracy.
Oh right, its only a conspiracy if its against the liberal narrative. Shitty/anonymous information and sources are 100% legit when it does fit the narrative though.
Still waiting on that impeachment.

A whistlerblower being killed to preserve secrets of the country's corrupt elites is not crazy, and is just as/more likely than Trump being Putin's puppet. Originally Posted by Xarkan

Hannity will ultimately be done in not by the evuuuul liberal MSM, but by the higher ups at his own network, who probably see him as a relic of the Ailes era and are doing everything they can to rebrand and distance themselves from that image.

Because corporations deciding what information should or should not be aired is obviously good for everyone! /s Originally Posted by zenkai

True and once they do that rebrand they're basically done as a news network. They're already seeing how it's going to be with their squishy moderate approach and their giant tank in ratings, but personally I'm fine with this. Let them tank, because they've always been Establishment even when they were pushing the Tea Party narrative. They've used the grassroots and haven't ever embodied it. Originally Posted by Macaquerie

He's on the same Spectrum as Rachel Maddow, no sane person listens to either one and takes them serious. Gee I hope next we see sponsor stories about the Kardashians. Originally Posted by PRE 9-11

Starting to look like Fox news is in need of a safe space.

This is obviously false. Sean Hannity is significantly worse than Rachel Maddow. Sean Hannity has propagated several conspiracy theories - including Birtherism, Hillary Clinton brain damage and seizure stories, and now Seth Rich. Originally Posted by zenkai

It's actually more like comparing a highly credentialed political journalist that's liberal to a high school drop out that peddles conspiracy theories. Originally Posted by zenkai

Do you even watch Rachel Maddow? Just curious how you know she's so bad.Eat yo vegetables

This is your attack on Rachel Maddow: Um she's bad! Everyone knows she's bad! Originally Posted by zenkai

Fox News like most(....all) cable 24hr news networks are pretty much designed around getting ratings and thus choose a demographic and target them with what they want to hear. Big money in news is ultimately a big problem. Just as big money in politics is. People on either side can choose a channel and hear what they want.
Although I will admit that while I am at work they have Fox News on one of the TVs and I can honestly say at this point they are even having trouble keeping the spin up on the bat shit crazy shit Trump does.
