Major advertiser DROPS Laura Ingraham’s show over comments about child separation

The boycott against Laura Ingraham has taken one advertiser hostage.

At least one major advertiser has dropped Laura Ingraham’s Fox News show in the wake of her comments on Monday about immigrant children separated from their parents.

The media and internet company IAC will no longer be running ads for HomeAdvisor or Angie’s List on the show, an IAC spokesperson confirmed on Thursday.
