Breitbart and some of its right-wing audience are now declaring a war on advertisers who are dropping the site. The site’s CEO Larry Solov said, “We’ll handle this the way we always do — war.”

Solov added, “What you’re seeing is Kellogg’s and others buying into a false, left-wing narrative that our 45 million readers are deplorables … Our readers are mainstream America and, frankly, that’s who these advertisers risk alienating. They’re creating economic censorship of conservative discourse. They say we don’t represent their values — but we represent American values.”

Maybe they'll handle this like the Starbucks-fiasco...

6. It's capitalism dumb-ass

Kellogg's is making the most sound financial decision they can come to, since advertising on Breitbart was probably going to hurt their bottom line.
