Tucker Carlson: Advertisers abandon Fox News host after he says 'white supremacy is a hoax'

When it comes to Fox News liars and propagandists Fucker Carlson is the one I would most enjoy seeing tortured, terrorized and beaten into a coma by the most virulent forms of cancer but it's actually even more fun watching that lying treasonous Fox New whore twist in the wind. The more he runs his lie whole in order to jerk off Trump and his supporters the worse it gets for him. It looks like Fucker is about to get shit canned as the Fox lie machine continues to fall apart. Maybe they will replace him with professional liar Sarah Huckabee Sanders after she gets her de-uglification facial surgery? I'd do the surgery for free. All I'd need is a blow torch and a ball-peen hammer.  

Advertisers are deserting Fox News’ primetime host Tucker Carlson, who called white supremacy “a hoax” in the wake of a mass shooting thought to be racially motivated.

"The whole thing is a lie,” Mr Carlson said live on Tucker Carlson Tonight on Tuesday. “It’s actually not a real problem in America … This is a hoax, just like the Russia hoax. It’s a conspiracy theory used to divide the country.”

Mr Carlson’s comments came three days after a gunman suspected of writing a white supremacist manifesto referencing a “Hispanic invasion” opened fire in a Texas supermarket, killing 22 people, including eight Mexican citizens.

Hours later, the hashtag #FireTuckerCarlson began trending on Twitter, with thousands of people calling for consumers to boycott the show’s advertisers.

A Nestlé spokesperson confirmed to The Independent on Friday that the company, which placed adverts on the programme within the last three months, has no plans to do so again in the future.

America’s largest fast seafood chain Long John Silver confirmed to watchdog Media Matters that they would no longer be advertising on Fox News, after reportedly running adverts nearly every day in 2018.

The FBI has made more than 100 arrests relating to Trump fueled right wing domestic terror in 2019, already higher than the previous year’s total.

FBI director Christopher Wray in July attributed the majority of these cases to “white supremacist violence”, but Mr Carlson dismissed such concerns on Tuesday.

“If you were to assemble a list, a hierarchy, of concerns or problems this country faces, where would white supremacy be on the list? Right up there with Russia probably,” he said. ”It’s actually not a real problem in America except for the weekly massacres of gays liberals, black and brown people but that's actually a good thing really. America needs more blood baths.” I added the part in italic because that's what he really meant and his advertiser thought so as well.

Mr Carlson’s choice of language, previously condemned as racist and misogynistic, has cost him advertisers in the past.

More than 20 companies deserted his show in December after he claimed immigration made the US “dirtier”. Several more followed suit in January after he suggested that women earning more money than men was bad for society.

Fox News trash have stuck by its lie whore throughout the controversy, while watchdogs and campaigners intensified calls for his removal.
