Media Matters for America (MMFA), the far-left group founded by David Brock to attack conservative media, is behind the boycott Hannity campaign. In fact, Keurig tweeted a thank you to MMFA’s president, Angelo Carusone, for calling Hannity’s coverage of the Moore case to the company’s attention:
Angelo, thank you for your concern and for bringing this to our attention. We worked with our media partner and FOX news to stop our ad from airing during the Sean Hannity Show.
On his Twitter account, Hannity has tweeted a link to a Web site – registered to the domain angelocarusone dot com – that is titled and alleges “Angelo Carusone Exposed! Anti-Gay, Anti-Semitic and Racist.”
On Sunday, a counter campaign among Hannity’s supporters to boycott the boycotting advertisers – Keurig in particular – quickly took off on social media. As the work week starts today, the second large viral wave of coverage of this issue is mostly about the spread instigated by Hannity’s fans of boycotts of the advertisers who have ended sponsorship of his program.
The stakes in this emerging fight couldn’t be higher. Sean Hannity, and a handful of other high profile conservative hosts on Fox News, represent the last thin line in the mainstream media that is left standing against the almost universal fake news onslaught by the MSM aimed at taking down President Donald Trump. Last April, advertisers who deserted Fox News’ #1 program at the time, The O’Reilly Factor, after allegations of sexual harassment by host Bill O’Reilly resurfaced in the media, got the host of that program summarily fired in less than three weeks

When a thoroughly good person emerges, the left can’t restrain itself from destroying him.
Evil is like rust. It never sleeps.
Apparently Hannity fans videoed themselves all weekend destroying their Keurig coffee machines and tweeting the vids. Sean is so touched. Found the videos hilarious. He is planning on giving everyone who did that, and plenty other fans, free coffee machines this week.
The CEO of Keurig has written a huge apology to Sean. They were apparently the victim of their social
Media staff and media matters. They were fooled by a fake blizzard of emails against Keurig.
Sean’s gonna be ok. Either we have freedom of speech or we have pretty big problems. You know. Like General Washington and them dudes.
Sean’s a tough cookie, he’s never quit before.
I’m in need of a new coffee maker, anyway. The Keurig will be in the bin come garbage day.
Listening right now (parked in car). Sean says he welcomes this fight. Calls it Predictable.
Founded by David Brock and FUNDED by GEORGE SOREASS.
Keurig was fooled. Don’t destroy your machine.
Go Sean go! One of the few good guys who won’t go down without a fight. He, Rush and Tucker Carlson.
The site (angelocarusoni.com) is suppose to be extremely bigoted.
I’m still using my Keurig machine, but rest assured, I have no plans to buy another one until they relent. If there are any coffee brands directly owned by Keurig, I won’t purchase those, either.
Yes, I saw the update. Garbage day is Thursday so I have time to reverse course. But heads should roll in their media dept.
The social media version of “swatting...”
No skin in the game, little chance of getting caught, sadly under educated millennials, and algorithms designed to support the process....
Not saying ALL the claims of abuse are unfounded, but the timing (orchestration?) is suspicious

Until they relent????
Really???? Do you think that’s gonna happen? Our lefties have gone nuclear assbaggerry. They’re not going to stop the stupid. But you think if they call a truce, it’s all good??????
Play with the big dogs or get off the porch.
There are some advertisers you just don’t need. The reality is that Fox is required if you want to hit everybody. Because no Fox household is watching CNN or MSNBC. There is really almost no overlap.
