Two Advertisers Suspend ‘Full Frontal’ Sponsorship In Wake Of Ivanka Slur
Gee "feckless c@@t" gets you a couple dropped advertisers, but a poorly worded and not funny "joke" about race gets you canned and ostracised. Not defending either, just the level of penalty. Guess it makes a difference what side you are when you need to be spanked.
I also think there should be personal repercussions legally though, the Supreme Court has ruled that political leaders are celebrities and subject to criticism in the public forum - however, that really doesn't extend to children and if you notice - they always say "Ivanka Trump, an advisor to the President" - but she is also an unpaid advisor - so does that mean I can say something nasty like that on television about the endless string of Hollywood tramps that are "advisors to Governor Moonbeam Brown"? Several are on various "commissions" after all and actually have formal meeting schedules, etc. Ivanka has the deep pockets, I'd test the legal theory if I were her and file a lawsuit, drag the bag through deposition after deposition and "leak" all of her answers to the media, etc. - it works for Stormy.
One thing is for certain though, there is a difference between a Tweet from an iPhone in the middle of the night, and a monologue that was pre-recorded, edited, vetted, and broadcasted at a later date. To me, that says "many people have reviewed and thought this was great to put on the air". The sponsors certainly need to strongly consider if they want to be associated with that, and if you don't agree with the statement - be sure to stop recording crap on that channel with your DVR.
As inappropriate language is being accepted by leftists less and less and vicious language is being excepted more and more, maybe “vicious” is becoming the new normal. Unfortunately evidence of this abounds.
That's what I see with the lefties. Just raw anger and hatred.
The night of the inauguration I said to a buddy, over a glass of wine, "Watch. The media will attack Baron." 9 am the next morning my buddy texted me with, "How did you nail it?" That SNL writer went right after Baron that night. That's what these people do. Nothing is safe with them. Not children. Not women...
Now they have an open pedo running for Congress.
It's like how they also get it on with the lyrics of rappers. Me dino suddenly recalls Obama inviting a couple of those o so cool bad boys to perform at the White House.
Yo! Same difference, dude..
Right now it seems that the entire corp. world, the press included, has swallowed the progressive kool-aid.
It's the dichotomy of the level of feigned outrage against anything conservative vs the "It was only a joke" or the "Oh but she apologized so it's OK" of liberal progressives that I was pointing out.
