In all honesty they are the best pillow I’ve ever bought. Even my husband who finds something wrong with everything loves them.

MyPillow Ignores Liberal Outrage, Refuses to Pull Ads from Laura Ingraham’s Fox News Show https://t.co/zFvZld4n8l via @BreitbartNews

As previously reported, Fox News issued a statement Monday afternoon standing by embattled primetime host conservative Laura Ingraham who lost over a dozen advertisers stemming from a boycott campaign by liberal Parkland school shooting student activist David Hogg.
The statement was reported by the Los Angeles Times.
“We cannot and will not allow voices to be censored by agenda-driven intimidation efforts,” Jack Abernethy, co-president of Fox News, said in a statement to the Los Angeles Times. “We look forward to having Laura Ingraham back hosting her program next Monday when she returns from spring vacation with her children.”
Last week liberal gun control activist David Hogg targeted conservative talk radio and Fox News host Laura Ingraham with an advertiser boycott because she tweeted an article about his travails getting accepted to colleges and commented he is ‘whining’ about being rejected.
Although Laura Ingraham issued an apology to teen tyrant Hogg, he doubled down on his boycott rampage.
So far about a dozen companies pulled their ads from Laura Ingraham’s show including Jenny Craig, Nutrish, Hulu, TripAdvisor, Wayfair, Expedia, Nestlé, Johnson & Johnson, and Office Depot.
