#BoycottKeurig is trending on Twitter because Fox News viewers are mad that Keurig pulled ads from Sean Hannity's show after he tried to defend alleged pedophile Roy Moore.
This is going to backfire. More people will buy Keurig for standing up against pedophilia.
Companies that pulled ads from Hannity over this weekend include:
The only one of these companies I've heard of is Keurig, and that is not only an unhealthy way to brew coffee, but very expensive. Those things have been shown to grow molds and bacteria, because they cannot be cleaned.
Secondly, any company that pulls their ads for political reasons is shooting themselves in the foot. The point of advertising is to sell product, not to make a political statement. Advertising is a tough enough business, let alone pulling a stunt that causes consumers to hate you.
Keurigs are trash. If you can't figure out how to make a real cup of coffee using a french press, you are probably well-qualified to sit around and watch Hannity.
KEURIG CEO APOLOGIZED FOR TAKING SIDES! Hannity just read out the memo. They advertise on Fox, CNN and MSNBC and I guess he realized conservatives and liberals both drink coffee and he'd be losing half his business.
He also saw people smashing his machines on Twitter and youtube so maybe that swayed him.
It was a dumb thing for them to do. When will companies learn that both conservatives and liberals buy their products?
Go ahead. Make my day. Shoot yourself in the foot. I couldn't care less. Keurig is a very expensive way to enjoy coffee anyway, and besides the machines are unhealthy. Can't be cleaned.

No he didn't. He said their change in advertising shouldn't have been announced on Twitter.
And if you do believe in sides on this, then the sides are for or against pedophilia. Which side are you on?
Although the kid was not pre pubescent. I'd call it statutory rape. so would the state.
