1. LOL. Sounds nervous and defensive

[Happyhippychick]

2. He's free to speak. You're the schmucks for losing money on his rhetoric.

[EarlG]

3. Lol, who is censoring him?

If nobody wants to subsidize the cost of his show with advertisements, Fox News can just pay for it themselves, right? Or they could crowdfund every episode?

Or they could just take him off the air, but then they’d be censoring him and I’m sure they wouldn’t want to do that.

[gratuitous]

5. Why does Fox hate the free market?

Do they want the government to order advertisers to support low-rated shows filled with that patented Fox mixture of racism, hatred, and self-martyrdom?

[Sherman A1]

10. A question that needs to be repeated

regularly.

[Mike Nelson]

4. I hope...

… Tucker and his family are safe and sound. Harassing them is deplorable. However, I will fully participate in any boycott of his wretched TV show - will let advertisers know their products are off limits if they support his deplorable show.

[Jarqui]

6. Keep it coming

All these folks understand is money

The less they get of it for Tucker, the sooner Tucker heads down the road.

As Jon Stewart would attest, Tucker wasn't a loss for CNN and he won't be for FOX

8. Advertisers do not like

negatives. Don't waste time even thinking about anything Murdoch and only watch our local Fake noise affiliate when my football team is playing.

And if you receive you TV feed via Cable of Sat,every click is counted.

9. "these same groups never target other broadcasters"

[unblock]

11. oh noes! the left has "deeply political motives"!!

i guess they're trying to say they'd be ok with what the left was doing if their motives were something other than "deeply political".




and hey, you're all hypocrites unless you also boycott all those left-wing propaganda networks, too!

[Volaris]

12. Once again,

Do these dumb fuckers NOT UNDERSTAND how the free market works??

You'd think they'd get it, as much as Tucker (and everyone else over there) worships at the altar of Rand.

[Gothmog]

13. Almost 20 advetertisers are boycotting tucker the idiot
