The advertisers who dropped the Laura Ingraham show: a boycott list

I would ask all partisans of sanity to boycott all these companies immediately, and at least until they renew their contracts with Fox.

To be clear, this asshole kid WASN’T EVEN AT THE SCHOOL, on his own, later account.  He lied about it, and IMMEDIATELY used this tragedy to get himself in the limelight, pushing idiotic policies, using the dead bodies of kids–many of whom likely held him in contempt, as a self aggrandizing narcissist–as props.

If we can’t denounce that, then nothing is wrong, ever, with anything.  That makes Ingraham’s comments, too, perfectly acceptable.

And if the standard is how many voices we can get shouting in unison, then if enough of us denounce these corporate cowards, then WE ARE RIGHT.  Might makes right, right?  That is the logic on display, and increasingly the logic of everyone.

I remember a time when we aspired to the disciplined public exercise of reason based upon definable and consistent moral principles.  The memory of this time, in the hearts of Americans, seems to be fading, if it is even still present at all.
