Laura Ingraham might be regretting her mockery of David Hogg, the snotty obnoxious gun-grabbing Parkland brat, after six advertisers said they would be pulling their ads from her show.
We posted earlier how the Hoggboy called for a boycott of her show.
I don’t think the little snot has all that much pull, but unfortunately these companies are run by people who don’t understand how social media works – they think that 50 angry tweets represents millions of angry people, when it actually could represent far fewer than 50 people running fake accounts.
In any case, they’re folding:
So far, six companies have announced they will no longer support the program: Nestle, Wayfair, TripAdvisor, Expedia, Joseph A. Banks and Nutrish, a pet food brand.
“As a company, we support open dialogue and debate on issues,” Wayfair told the Daily Beast. “However, the decision of an adult to personally criticize a high school student who has lost his classmates in an unspeakable tragedy is not consistent with our values. We do not plan to continue advertising on this particular program.”
A Nestle spokesperson told the website, “We have no plans to buy ads on the show in the future.”
Nutrish, which is owned by celebrity chef Rachael Ray, was the first to abandon “The Ingraham Angle.”
Once she started losing advertisers, Ingraham caved to the liberal pressure, oddly enough, since she seems to love slamming the GOP for caving to liberals! Weird.
Any student should be proud of a 4.2 GPA —incl. @DavidHogg111. On reflection, in the spirit of Holy Week, I apologize for any upset or hurt my tweet caused him or any of the brave victims of Parkland. For the record, I believe my show was the first to feature David...(1/2)

... immediately after that horrific shooting and even noted how "poised" he was given the tragedy. As always, he’s welcome to return to the show anytime for a productive discussion. WATCH: https://t.co/5wcd00wWpd (2/2)

And how did Hogg take it? Did he take the hight road? Of course not:
Man the sanctimony from this punk. He’s the extremist who called the NRA baby killers. And now he’s begging for civility. Pathetic.
Frankly, these two deserve each other.
