John Heilemann: Advertisers Dropping Laura Ingraham ‘Want To Be on the Right Side’

‘The new element here is those advertisers understand that these kids and this issue have power’

EXCERPT:

WALLACE: "Four, here they are. Rachel Ray’s Nutrish, which I believe is a pet food company, Trip Advisor, Wayfair and Expedia have all pulled their advertisements from Laura Ingraham’s program."
HEILEMANN: "And almost instantly reply, they know what Ingraham’s like. They’ve heard her trash people before. They know what her politics are. None of this was new. The new element here is that those advertisers understand that these kids and this issue have power and they want to be on the right side of it. It’s not about Laura Ingraham. It’s that they want to be with this movement and that is a gargantually important thing in American politics and life."
