A Wall Street Journal report on brands advertising against offensive videos on YouTube. Companies such as Coca-Cola, Amazon and Microsoft have pulled ads from YouTube in the wake of the story.
Following the WSJ’s lead, leftists are targeting Hannity’s advertisers, and rumors abound about Hannity’s future, now that the following advertisers have pulled their ads from his show:

The left has latched on to this scheme to destroy anyone and everyone with whom they disagree.
CNN targeted me and my advertisers. Here’s what happened.
THE FOURTH ESTATE
CNN ambushes me in attempt to silence dissent
Exclusive: Pamela Geller tells of interview about her ad revenue plummetingWND, May 24, 2017:
From MSNBC and ABC to CBS and CNN and (increasingly) Fox, the mainstream media speak with one voice: leftist, anti-Trump and determined to whitewash and deny the connection between Islam and terrorism. Yet even though they control virtually all the news outlets, they’re still desperate to silence every dissenting voice, no matter how small its platform. And so on Tuesday, CNN tried to ambush me.
On May 17, a CNN reporter named Simon Ostrovsky contacted me, inviting me to be interviewed for a CNN Money program: “It’s about ad revenue on YouTube. I saw that you published a post about revenue dropping in YouTube, and you attributed it to Google and Facebook being left-leaning companies that were censoring alternate points of view. Would you be able to tell us how significant the impact has been and if it’s ongoing and if you see this as a wider campaign to undermine your message?”
[the_ad id=”90673″]
Having a sense of what CNN was after, I responded: “Simon, Yes, the revenue drop has been drastic. Who else will be on? I am not interested in an ambush.” He responded with reassurances: “This would be a package, so it would not be a studio discussion with other guests. Just me and you, and I’d like cover a couple topics including the revenue on YouTube and AdSense and your views on why the changes are taking place and if you agree with the characterization of your content as advertiser un-friendly. Are those areas you are OK to talk about?”I agreed to go, since I am currently in a lawsuit challenging Section 230 of the FEC code, which grants these social media giants immunity from prosecution: They can censor as much as they wish without fear of legal action. We are trying to remove that protection, so as to preserve the freedom of speech. As it is, this protection gives them enormous power. I have well over a million followers who voluntarily chose to receive my content, and Facebook is blocking them from getting it. This has dramatically affected the advertising revenue upon which I depend not only for the upkeep of my site, but for my own livelihood; it is 90 percent down since mid-February.
Ostrovsky asked me to bring my laptop to CNN’s studios so that I could show him my Google AdSense account and Google Analytics, to show the precipitous drop in referrals from Facebook, Google AdSense, YouTube and related sources. I did. Ostrovsky saw that revenue from Facebook was down from $150 a day at this time six months ago to $30 a day now.
But Ostrovsky had lied in his emails to me. He wasn’t really interested in how Facebook and the rest were censoring me at all. He had a thick stack of copies of posts that were 10 years old and older from my website. He was calling out my advertisers, claiming that I was inciting to war crimes and that these advertisers were supporting my incitement by placing ads on my website. “Advertisers should know what they’re supporting,” he said. He pointed to a 2006 headline in which I had called for bombing Gaza, because of the rockets they were firing at Israeli civilian installations. This was the basis for his claim that I was inciting war crimes.
I explained to him that this post had to be understood in its historical context. At that time, jihadis in Gaza were sending rockets into Israel and hitting Israeli civilian institutions: schools, synagogues, hospitals were all at risk. So I was calling for defense against that. Ostrovsky responded, “Well, that’s not in the headline.” I said, “Yes, you have to read the story. It’s patently dishonest and journalistic malpractice to get me here and ambush me with a vicious, destructive narrative.”
Ostrovsky had much more. He pulled out a Daily Caller piece in which I had said that Islam is the problem. He said, “Don’t you realize that’s deeply offensive to many Muslims?” I answered, “Jihad is deeply offensive to many Muslims. We have to be able to talk about the problem, or we will never be able to deal with it properly. You are adhering to Shariah. Under Shariah, you cannot criticize Islam. There is a death penalty in Shariah for blasphemy, apostasy and hypocrisy. You are bringing this to America. I don’t live under Shariah. I can talk about these matters freely, as we must.”
Then Ostrovsky said, “If you said, ‘Judaism is the problem,’ that would be anti-Semitic.” To that I responded, “If Jews were slaughtering people while screaming, ‘HaShem akbar,’ I would say that Judaism is the problem. If Christians were killing in the name of Christ, I would say Christianity is the problem. But they aren’t, and it isn’t.”
“FX is a major corporation,” Ostrovsky said. “Don’t you think they should know what they’re supporting?” I said, “They know they want to reach 150,000 people. They aren’t supporting everything that’s on my page. Do you think CNN advertisers are supporting its scrubbing of all mention of jihad from the reporting of jihad attacks? The Manchester attacker was screaming Islamic prayers on the street in the weeks before the attack – was that on CNN? Do CNN advertisers approve of this being swept under the rug at CNN?”
I told him that CNN’s advertisers should not be paying his salary to destroy people with lies and defamation. He asked me what lies CNN had told. We could have been there for days as I answered that question, but I gave him just one example: CNN’s headline after President Trump’s speech in Saudi Arabia: “Trump silent on human rights.” Now all of a sudden CNN cares about human-rights violations in Muslim countries? Incredible. Obama gave billions to Muslim countries with long records of human-rights violations – most notably the Islamic Republic of Iran – and CNN never said a word. Bloody hypocrites. Their only interest is in bringing President Trump down.
I told Ostrovsky that advertisers should not be supporting a news organization that promotes and incites to violence, whitewashing and obscuring the jihad ideology. He said, “I’m Jewish!” I responded, “That doesn’t give you a blank check to destroy. You’re a left-wing Jew. You guys are the worst. You’re a Jew for jihad, you’re a kapo. I can’t believe that the little advertising I still get, you want to extinguish. You want to silence all voices that don’t support your vicious agenda. You should be ashamed of yourself,” I told him. “How do you sleep at night? How do you look in the mirror? You brought me here to talk about the freedom of speech, and you are working to destroy it.”
He said, “We’ll talk about the freedom of speech.” I said “No, we won’t. You have no intention of discussing how my freedom of speech is being abridged.”
And I walked out.
CNN will not accept or allow my earning 30 bucks a day from AdSense. Even this pittance kills them, so they assign this tool Ostrovsky to go after my advertisers, the handful that they are.
Do CNN advertisers know that this is where their ad dollars are going, to destroying Americans and their livelihoods?

Thank you Pam – for standing up for what’s right despite the personal cost. I wish I was wealthy beyond my means so that I could support you financially. America is slowly losing the true freedom that once made it the greatest nation on earth. Americans are being forced to kowtow to the left wing’s agenda … and so we become a nation of slaves to a bastardized version of “freedom.” I fear one day, true patriots will be forced underground. It’s voices like yours they help give me some semblance of hope.

If the political leaders had the courage, the response would be to round up those Muslims doing the threatening, imprison them for a while and then deport. Citizens would arm themselves and when threatened kill the Muslims.

Well said, Mick. Liberals and the left are destroying free speech and democracy in America, but you don’t need to “kowtow to the left wing’s agenda – or become a nation of slaves”. Just stay true to belief in freedom, free speech and decency – and as best you can, speak out.
My suggestion to readers of Pamela Geller; if you see in the street, or bar, or restaurant, the ugly, lying and disgusting Simon Ostrosky, ‘ambush’ him with a punch in the face, a kick in the groin or a kick under the knee cap. Then while he is contemplating his discomfort, punch him in the throat and as he goes down smash your elbow or forearm across the back of his neck. If he tries to get up, stamp on the back of his head. The bang to his forehead when hitting road or sidewalk surface will scramble his brain a bit. Likewise for CNNs Chris Quomo, Alysin Camerota and any other CNN dirtbag. They’re waging war, so give them a taste of war.

While i agree with your sentiments 100%, i believe in never posting anything promoting, or suggesting any act of violence against any person or thing, on the web for the following reasons ! The internet never goes away, and anything that you have ever posted can be found if someone searches long enough and hard enough, and it can be used in a court of law against you ! JUST SAYING !

Drivel! The fact is that you are scared to truly open your mouth and express the harsh truth, so convince yourself it’s the smart to keep your mouth shut. If everyone behaved the way you recommend no one would challenge evil and change anything. Consider this: “”The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.” – Edmund Burke.

Freedom is Civilization, and Civilization is freedom of citizen.
We just need to re-write politics, this time pure politics, without any space for religious freedom, because freedom of citizen and freedom of religious followers cannot go side by side.
Religious freedom has create left wing political branch, which prove danger for civilization.
We need new age of enlightenment and reason without religion.

Soros is a Jew, yet when he was a kid his father got him a job befriending himself to Jews in order to point them out and expose them to the Gestapo, sending thousands to concentration camps and gas chambers, a period of his life which he calls his happiest. So this Jew CNN/(gestapo) reporter with glee tries to destroy his own people and anyone seeking to stand against his type and those villains he promotes as good.

Futility. Lots of feelings of powerlessness, uselessness, when you see a decadent offensive organization like Islam win the hearts of so many, one starts to believe in the civilizational decline everyone is talking about. There has to be a defect in our evolutionary genes for so many to buy into the blantant deceptions of Islam. It’s similiar to the homosexual epidemic. How a man would prefer a man over having a kickbutt wife and lots of crazy kids? Humanity is in free fall.

But then you start to think about Hillary’s campaign, soros funding, merkel/trudeau agenda, the swedish radical left governments/establishments, obama’s post presidency anti-trump propaganda, the whole media sold out to the leftist agenda….and then you wonder, Their pile of crap is way bigger than Trump’s.

The take down of the Left will require something extra ordinary. I feel that if the Seth Rich case leads to the arrest for murder of some of the Left’s higher ups (Clintons, Podesta….) then the whole house of cards will come tumbling down on the Left. Nothing less than a massive hit like that will do. This Leftist Progressive crap now dominates the universities and other institutions that used to be the backbone of our society and that does not speak well for the future of the Republic.

I do not know why Geller, conservatives etc… continue to go on CNN. Just by going you support them. Geller knew what she was going to encounter, as always with CNN and still sent. CNN gets a show either way. IF they do a shows the invitation was, or they ambush as they always do – CNN has material to air.
STOP going on CNN people. Organize this among yourselves. Decline. Stat with CNN, then MSNBC, ABC etc…
I said the same at the start of the Trump admin – Trump gives a press conference, calls CNN fake news, argues with their reporters, dismisses CNN – all rightfully so – two hours later someone from the Trump admin is on CNN! WTF. STOP GOING ON. Stop supporting them.

Islam is corruption in political science, as Islam is Arabian absurd theology, it has nothing to do with freedom and freedom of speech. So to speak about freedom of speech, means freedom from Islam. Our state must be free from theological Islam.

Funny thing is Marx called religion Opium. The support that western Communists have for Islam has nothing to do with Marx. The Chinese have outlawed Islam, the Soviet Union fought a war against Islam and Jimmy Carter a so
called Christian supplied Islam with weapons. The western communists think they are in control over Islam. What utter nonsense Islam has been conquering the world through violence for 1,400 years. Communism on the other hand died in the Soviet Union. Islam considers atheists to be infidels, and they will end up just as dead as all other infidels.
