$13 Million And Counting - Bill O'Reilly & Fox
 
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/04/01/b...-fox-news.html

I guess the cash cow that is Bill O'Reilly makes it all worth it.

...and Mercedes Benz withdraws advertising from O'Reilly's show.

Pox noise is the Bill Cosby of cable news, and not in any good sense.

The German automaker becomes the third advertiser to suspend its commercials on the program, joining Mercedez-Benz (DAIGn.DE). Hyundai Motor Corp (005380.KS) told the New York Times they are reallocating future advertising on "The O'Reilly Factor."

BMW wasn’t among the top 50 advertisers on "The O’Reilly Factor," but Mercedes-Benz and Hyundai were regular spenders.

Not even Hyundai will back that jerk! I love it! Hyundai should send him an 88 Hyundai Excel as a consolation prize!

Fox Losing More Advertisers After Sexual Harassment Claims Against O’Reilly
 
"Fox News was facing a major advertising revolt on Tuesday as companies wary of the sexual harassment accusations against Bill O’Reilly continued to pull their ads from his prime-time cable news show.
At least seven more marketers said they were withdrawing ads from “The O’Reilly Factor,’’ making a total of at least nine that have suspended sponsorship in the last 24 hours. Mercedes-Benz and Hyundai announced their decisions Monday night, and on Tuesday they were joined by BMW of North America; GlaxoSmithKline; T. Rowe Price; Allstate; Constant Contact, an online marketer; Untuckit, a men’s clothing distributor; and Sanofi Consumer HealthCare, which advertised products like ACT mouthwash on Mr. O’Reilly’s show."

BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, Hyundai, and Mitsubishi all yanked their ads after a New York Times investigation that surfaced five sexual harassment cases against the political pundit............................................ .................

In total, at least 15 advertisers have so far withdrawn support.
And I am sure there will be any more to come.
