Ingraham losing advertisers for attacking Hogg

4.1 out of a possible _____ ? That's not at you.
It's at the snowflake parents, administrators, students, BOE and flakey teachers.
Always been a sore spot with me, 4.3 out of 4.0; universities laugh at that crap; as they recalculate their GPA;
Such as 4.11 out of a possible 4.22; then scale down to 3.90 out of 4.00.

We had to go to the cum laude system when students would take less courses to 'win' valedictorian by 0.001 ...

Yep. We AP STEM students were pretty pissed when our ValD was some lib arts schmuck we never heard of before because he wasn't in any of our math and science classes--he wasn't even in Latin or one of the third-year foreign language classes. Hell half of our group were already taking college courses at night at the JC or working coop type paid internships at one of the local automobile manufacturers or their suppliers during our Sr year.

Let's not call community colleges 'community colleges'.
Let's call them 'vocational', the latest 4-syllable word the idiot in chief has stumbled on, like pornography ...

OK OK.... OK....

So... ... been doing more watching and more reading......

1) Honestly, now, I think this whole damn thing is SAD and BS. Why do I say this. kid with power, effectively took down a Talk show host.
2) David Hoggs interview from CNN the other day relating to Laura's Apology was Perfectly "scripted" to further more damage to her.
3) He is NOT innocent in any way either, BOTH are equally guilty of falling on the sword.
4) We have other HORRIBLE "talk shows" the View, "Joy Behar" that has said extremely incendiary things had to retract yet, no one has rallied to have their sponsors pulled. Laura Stated FACTS, while sure being a d!ck about it, IT was STILL FACTS. She was not racist, prejudice, or even blatantly lied. YET because it was a Kid that was a "survivor" and got his 15 minutes of fame, he was able to rally a group and force sponsors to pull out. Joy Behar effectively criticized Trump (fake reporting) and Pence (psychiatric issues for listening to god) this is BUT one example of the tit for tat.


This kid, Used his power effectively, FOR sure... But likely has ruined Laura's life, She did in fact do it to her self, but talk about double standards.... you can say incendiary things (as stated about the $1.05 Rubio comment that is COMPLETELY FALSE) Yet you can take a Stab back, by stating why he got rejected for a 4.1 GPA that is FACT, and lose your show (shes going to have to get moved likely....)


this little fricken kid, used his power effectively but in the process took down someone indiscriminately, and more so instead of taking the high road ( I dont accept her apology.....) honestly, @#$! this kid...

How is this in any way 'indiscriminate'? Laura Ingraham is the one who tweeted at David Hogg.

Meanwhile there's dozens of other conservative talk show hosts and commentators in the United States who are currently NOT losing tons of advertisers right now.

I'd only assume it's because these individuals did not send a tweet at a teenager.

You are correct, But his retort was listing 12 of her top sponsors and asking for his Twitter follower to call. It was NOT that she tweeted, but used his influence to bring her down. LIKELY if he did NOT do THAT, it may have played out differently.

Again my Example that I listed is exactly that. BOTH side do this CRAP.... they blast and troll each other all the time. ONLY this kid went on twitter called his following to call her sponsors. THAT is the kicker....... and the only difference. He set the tone and I have a feeling we will be seeing this move happen more often now....... Cheap shot by Laura, damaging by Hogg.
