I never heard of "Nature's Bounty," so apparently they haven't been running ads on Hannity anyway, as the article says. It says these companies "have not run ads" during Hannity, not that they are "pulling" ads.

I just watched the interview and judging from Hannity's facial expressions I don't think he believes Moore anymore. Just thought I'd throw that in.

I'm sitting here typing on an apple computer and regularly do searches on Google. According to those folks, I shouldn't use these tools. It's just stupid. I'm going to use the products and tools that I like most...who cares about their political values/decisions.
Bingo. These "boycotts" often backfire. These companies have no way of knowing how many people who support Hannity (or any other show they may boycott) purchase their products. They risk losing customers with crap like this, and once lost, it's hard to get them back. Advertising is a tough business. It's a "battleground." Pulling ads from any show or other media is cutting your own throat. Any company who does this is acting stupidly. Do they think anybody is going to flock to their product because they don't run ads on Hannity? Not likely.

Some of these companies I've never heard of!

Default KREIG, the next to feel the pain.

Don't these companies ever learn?

Kreig, the coffee brewing system, has pulled its advertising from Hannity.
Like the NFL deal, millions, not thousands are smashing the Kreig coffee makers and vowing to never again... DONE.


Stock is dropping fast and shareholders are fleeing.

Is Kreig a new brand?

BTW, hundreds of companies including many well known ones (Apple, etc.) stopped ads on hate radio....with absolutely no effect on their businesses.

They have learned.....that you have no morals and a big mouth. By that I mean you (plural) are all talk.

As a challenge, see how many of you "millions" can show up in DC for a march to support your fine POTUS and/or your lovely media? You won't even fill a bus.

The Kreig boycott is the #1 trending subject initiated by Russian trolls today and yesterday.

Here's a link that tracks issues Russia trolls are pushing. Look at the Top Hashtags section and also the Top URL and Trending URL and you can see the Kreig boycott is at the top there also.

This link is rolling 24-48 hours which tracks Russian initiated social media posts.

"hate radio" = any station that airs opinions differing from yours.

In the end its up to Krieg, Keurig, tomato, tomotto where they want to spend their money

Defined by the advertiser and their customers. Don't you believe in the Free Market?
