LOL! I've always worked at large corps, who are quite conservative in every way. $$$$$$ dictate every single decision. No doubt these fine corps projected operating profits dipping if they continued to air this show, and sell this merchandise.

the quantity of progressive corps is ultra tiny.

Do you understand what the main corporate motivators are? Let me give you a hint. There is only one.

Just one? I don't care why progressive corporations want open borders and want to ban, censor, cleanse and enforce PC. People are still against it.

Why is NASCAR trying to ban fans from bringing the flag? Censoring and cleansing you're own fans sounds like a great way to make money ?

Not true most "conservatives" don't conserve anything and are just neo-cons or RINOs. Progressive come as Republicans and Democrats both. You act like every decision a corporation makes always makes them more $$$. Completely untrue. Besides I don't care what their motive is only what their actions are. And their actions are the same as the progressives.

So now, according to the liberals, corporations like their beloved Walmart are brilliant and everything would be just dandy if we let them run the country.

Mmmkay.

It's TV Land. They specialize in old shows. What do you expect them to do -- show "Game of Thrones"?

If it was so minimal, why didn't they cancel the show before the Confederate flag controversy?

People need to recognize that corporations are at least as likely to be run by liberals as by conservatives, by Democrats as by Republicans.

Either way, they are terrified of being accused of racism or sexism. Just the accusation is enough to scare them. That's why Al Sharpton succeeds in shaking them down.

These decisions are purely political, and have nothing to do with dollars -- at least not until a boycott takes place and has a serious financial effect.

That didn't happen here.

Now, it's time for the American people to vote with their dollars in relation to the following corporations, just as they did with Chick Fil A:

Walmart
Viacom
Comcast
NBC
TV Land
Macy's
Amazon
NASCAR
Warner Brothers
Univision
Sears
Kmart
Ebay
Etsy.com
New York City

(more to be added....)

It's white-bread?

All the more reason to drop its lineup in the age of "White Privilege" and "White Supremacy."

Wrong.

I've also worked at large corporations.

They are as politically correct as any other institution in America.

They shake in their boots at the thought of being called "racist" or "sexist," and they cut a lot of slack to minorities and women as a result.
