Liberal Parkland school shooting activist David Hogg is now publicly calling for conservative Fox News Channel host Laura Ingraham to be fired as he succeeds with an advertiser boycott against Ingraham after she hurt his feelings with an innocuous tweet about his self-publicized problems getting accepted by elite colleges.
Ingraham apologized to Hogg, but he rejected it, initially demanding that, in Maoist Cultural Revolution style, she denounce her employer Fox News. He has since added other demands including she apologize to basketball star LeBron James.
Hogg told the New York Daily News on Friday:
“I would love to see her go,” Hogg told The News in a phone interview earlier Friday evening.”
Ingraham announced Friday night she is taking a week long vacation starting Monday. Hogg taunted Ingraham in return.
Have some healthy reflections this Holy Week. https://t.co/bjSLmj3gyH

Seventeen-year-old high school senior Hogg has become like young Anthony Freemont in the Twilight Zone episode, It’s a Good Life, in which the tyrannical tyke Anthony ruled the family home through power and fear, viciously attacking those who got on his bad side and eventually wishing them into the cornfield on the family farm.
Hogg has a history of smearing and trying to destroy those who cross his path. He has gone on previous boycott rampages targeting companies doing business with the NRA. He tried to wreck Florida’s tourist industry and tried to tank FedEx stock.
Ok what other big companies support the NRA? Let's get this done tonight!

CNN’s Alisyn Camerota told Hogg on Friday it appears he has “a lot of power” and asked how he feels about it. Hogg said the boycott success against Ingraham shows, “they cannot push us around.”
“I think it’s great that corporate America is standing with me and the rest of my friends,” Hogg said on CNN. “Because when you come against any one of us, whether it be me or anybody else, you’re coming against all of us. And I think it’s important that we stand together as both corporate and civic America to take action against these people and show them that they cannot push us around, especially when all we’re trying to do here is save lives.”

At least seventeen sponsors have stated they are stopping advertising on Ingraham’s Fox show as of Saturday afternoon according to Mediaite.
Hogg, who calls his opponents “child murderers” and tries to destroy their careers and businesses, hid behind his youth in his interview with the Daily News.
“I’m a 17-year-old kid, she’s bullied people before and I think people are just sick and tired of it,” he said. “She needs to acknowledge what she has done wrong.”
Be careful what you say or David Hogg will wish you into the cornfield.
