Red Lobster Caves to Left-Wing Blacklist Campaign, Pulls Ads from Tucker Carlson's Show
2019-01-09
[Breitbart] Restaurant chain Red Lobster is the latest company to cave to pressure from the far-left blacklisting campaign against Tucker Carlson, announcing Tuesday that they would no long advertise on Fox News’ Tucker Carlson Tonight.

The Wrap reports that Red Lobster confirmed their removal of ads from Tucker Carlson’s prime time show, saying in a statement, "Red Lobster’s advertising buying guidelines reflect our core values and commitment to supporting programming that represents the highest standards of good taste, fair practice and objectivity."

"We reserve the right to make changes to our purchases when the dialogue is no longer in line with our criteria."

Red Lobster is the latest company to pull ads from Carlson’s show. He faced an ad boycott last month over comments criticizing American immigration policy, and he is once again in the crosshairs of the far-left over comments he made about many women who do not want to marry men who earn less than them.

#8  millennials buy into the local grown nonsense

I've been thinking of starting a restaurant focused on the locally grown trend. Our winter menu will consist of acorns and raccoon jerky.

#7  The left doesn't like meat and I'm pretty sure they disagree with eating lobster. The mid-level sit down restaurants are all having trouble now because millennials buy into the local grown nonsense. I doubt they'll survive to see 2020.

#2  Red Lobster is overpriced, and all of the junk they push on you before anything like a red lobster shows up is pretty much unhealthy.

Carlson has nowhere near the balanced political verve of O'Reilly, and often uses the annoying body language and facial presentations that are reminiscent of CNN-style anchors.

#1  Can't recall the last time I ate at Red Lobster. Can't recall ever watching Tucker Carlson.
