IHOP is joining the mass of advertisers abandoning Fox News host Tucker Carlson's show after his controversial comments about immigration last week.
"At our core, we stand for welcoming folks from all backgrounds and beliefs into our restaurants and continually evaluate advertising to ensure it aligns with our values," IHOP said in a statement to Business Insider.
"In this case, we will no longer be advertising on this show."
At least 12 advertisers have stopped advertising on the show since last week, according to The Hollywood Reporter, whichfirst reported the news that IHOP was cutting ties with Tucker Carlson's show.
Last Thursday, Carlson said in a segment that the US needed more "scientists and engineers," as the country seeks to fill automated and tech-centered jobs.
"Instead we're getting waves of people with high school educations or less. Nice people, no one doubts that, but as an economic matter this is insane. It's indefensible, so no one even tries to defend it," he said.
"Instead our leaders demand that you shut up and accept this. We have a moral obligation to admit the world's poor, they tell us, even if it makes our country poorer and dirtier and more divided."

.... In short .... They have NO IDEA what they are doing at this point in History ....
Welp, I can scratch eating at IHOP off my bucket list.
Don’t do either. Don’t miss it/them.
Well, at least we know way they lean and now they don’t have a leg to stand on...
I saw that live.
Don’t have a hankering for IHOP. I can make my own, tyvm.
Conservative Response: I STOP...(going)
I heard it was kinda spency. That’s enough to keep me away.
Big business all in for their Third World hordes the expense of actual American citizens, what else is new?

IHOPs are run by Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood.
Third World immigrants making the country poorer (in general)? Say it ain’t so!
Where is that “I’m shocked” graphic when you need it?
There is a Waffle House down the road if I have a hankering. Also, the Cracker Barrell off the interstate will do in a pinch. Who needs Ihop?
IHOP can boycott Tucker, and I can boycott them, just like I boycott Hollyweird. No Grinch pancakes for me, I suppose.
No company who is intimidated by social media bullying is worth supporting.
No more IHOB.
LOL see my post. That was the last time I went there. And this was in college in 2006. I wasn’t scared of the ghetto animals but I had a hot date.
Never, ever been to an IHOP. I even know some people who waitered there. No one in their right mind would do the midnight shift or the obama kids will stiff you..
Never liked the place so no real loss for me. I don’t watch TV either.
What the hell are you talking about IHOP? We all know that businesses like yours are the biggest employers of illegal workers. Kitchen help just for starters. And you pay them peanuts. Businesses like yours are the problem.
FUIHOP
IHOP from the frying pan into the fire.
my impression from 3-4 visits in 20 years. Bland, ordinary, tasteless, low prices.
