poor tucker's in trouble again--with lindell, this time

Lindell, who has problems of his own, is furious at Fox News for refusing to run a commercial for his upcoming "cyber symposium," a livestreaming event in August that he says will prove that Donald Trump won the 2020 election, and restore him to his throne. Of course, that's a fantasy that Lindell and other Trump cultists have been harboring for months, despite having zero evidence and a string of 60+ cases being laughed out of court.

Lindell is joining Trump on the anti-Fox bandwagon. Trump became disenchanted with his Ministry of Propaganda when the network failed to be sufficiently worshipful, in his egomaniacal view. And on what appears to be his own "channel" (Lindell TV), he bellows that "I'm pulling all my ads from Fox indefinitely and immediately ... Shame on Fox News."

Carlson's problems with advertisers began last year after some of his overtly racist ranting that is the hallmark of Carlson's show, and of Fox News more broadly. At the time several major advertisers ditched him, including T-Mobile, SmileDirectClub, Disney and Papa John’s.

That left Carlson with only some lower-tier advertisers that aren't as discriminating. They include reverse mortgage lenders, dubious vitamin supplements, personal injury lawyers, and gold coin peddlers. Where this gets sticky for Carlson is that Forbes reported at the time that...

"According to iSpot, Tucker Carlson Tonight's biggest advertiser is My Pillow, which spent more than $40 million on spots during 2019 and 2020. That is about ten times as high as the show's next biggest advertiser and more than the next four sponsors' combined spending."
With Lindell's announcement that he's pulling all of his Fox News advertising, Carlson's show will become a charitable project for Fox News.

Advertisers like eyeballs. Carlson has millions of them. He'll be just fine.
