BuzzFeed has pulled out of an advertising agreement with the Republican National Committee over objections to Donald Trump's rhetoric.
The buy was for $1.3 million, a source close to BuzzFeed told POLITICO. The source said that the main consideration was the site's employees – that BuzzFeed could not countenance "having employees make ads, or working at the company and having our site promoting things, that limit our freedom and make it harder for them to live their lives."
Asked if the site would rule out any Trump advertising, the source said the specifics would matter: "In general, we have taken the position that we won't take ads for his presidential campaign."...

Lawsuit.
Bake the damn cake Christians.
Well run the damn ad, libtard journalists.
Id sue their ass off.
If BuzzFeed collects fees for Hillary’s ad campaign there will be hell to pay.
Buzzfeed’s illegal alien employees objected.
Buzzfeed must stand on their principles or lack thereof.
>>Bake the damn cake Christians.
I agree. Its amazing how soon they forget.
Funny how that happens.
Selective reality.
Sue them to oblivion. You ain’t talking cupcakes.
BuzzFeed is hurting themselves not Trump. They are making it even more clear their journalism is merely propaganda.
ping
But they will be happy to take muzzie promotion and communist ads, thank you very much
Basically, their position is that America must give in to the invasion of their country and if they don’t then they are morally repugnant. It’s an America must agree to suicide position.
I don’t think they understand that if ballots don’t work they’re leaving only one other option...short of intentional suicide.
It is amazing how many things are hammered on the Trump anvil and shown to be defective metal.
Go Trump!
Look it is time liberals paid for,their liberalism.
They force,us to violafe freedom,of,association and religious beliefs , well the law isnt just for conservative Christians to follow.
You give them a bigger smack back with their own laws and make them live like,everyone else until they are so pissed they wznt it repealed for,everyone.
How about a court order to tear down major parts of San Francisco because of an endangered species?
I like your thinking.
Just an excuse when they didn’t have the dough.
It would be interesting to TEST THIS IN COURT. Rejecting one candidate’s advertising in favor of another candidate’s advertising sounds like an in-kind contribution to me, which is illegal.
Maybe they can contract for the democrats since democrats make life so much better for companies and employees
“Buzzfeed’s illegal alien employees objected.”
I’ve been inside their Hollywood office. 90% white, with some token Asians.
They never had a “deal.”
I love it that even Buzzfeed is campaigning for Trump while being too dim to realize it.
