After Samantha Bee called Ivanka a feckless c*#t for posting a picture of herself with her youngest child, the boo birds were quick to come forward, both from the right and the left.
The pressure was immediately brought to bear against the advertisers and immediately, two large companies cut off their advertising dollars. They are State Farm and Auto Trader. Many more are being swamped with demands to drop their advertising but they have not responded one way or another yet. This is quite amazing that a liberal is now learning how the other half lives. Full Frontal is on TBS which is owned by Time Warner. I would boycott them but I already dropped TW.
State Farm insurance became the second company on Thursday to drop its sponsorship of comedian Samantha Bee’s TBS show “Full Frontal” following her vulgar slur directed at first daughter Ivanka Trump.
“We have asked TBS to suspend our advertising in the program and are reviewing any future placements. We constantly review programs to ensure alignment to our programming guidelines and brand values,” State Farm said in a statement reported by The Wrap.
The company’s decision comes just hours after the online car shopping site Autotrader announced it had cut ties with the show after Bee called Trump a “feckless c—.”
