Those Medicare vendors and gold scams have more money than him these days, probably.

Major mistake.

WSJ notes that Lindell has been one of the few advertisers for controversial shows such as Tucker Carlson, who has seen other advertisers flee after frequently echoing white nationalist rhetoric.
"MyPillow is among Fox News's major advertisers, alongside supplement company Balance of Nature and weight-loss products provider Nutrisystem, according to advertising analytics firm iSpot.tv," the newspaper reported. "MyPillow spent almost $50 million on Fox News last year and so far this year has shelled out about $19 million for ad time on the network, Mr. Lindell said."
