Hulu pulls ads from Laura Ingraham's show

Source: The Hill

Hulu has joined the companies pulling their advertisements from Fox News host Laura Ingraham's primetime program after she mocked a student survivor of the Parkland, Fla., high school shooting over his college rejections.

Since I don't tweet, I had to search for a contact and send an email. Some of those businesses made it difficult to contact any but product or service reps.

Yes, unless you use the direct message feature in Twitter or Facebook, it is hard to track down where to send complaint letters. Glad you got your email through!

Its working very well, and I too have joined in boycotting all on your list . Enough people do the same thing we can rid this country of these corrupt and criminal people trying to lie to us every day, and expect no consequences. Can't wait for Nov. election to hear their excuses why they lost both the House , and the Senate. Its coming and they know it.
