As a result of this morning’s post condemning an outrageous post from Wonkette in which blogger Jack Stueff mocks Trig Palin over his Down Syndrome and suggests that Todd Palin slept with his daughter, outrage spread across Twitter and now Wonkette advertisers are pulling ads.

Papa John’s was the first:

I know, I know, there has already been a post on this subject, but this is an update.

I know, I know, "why didn't you post the entire article". The answer is, it's a great compilation of screen shots.

Actually, what nobody is realizing (yet) is that this latest PDS episode has demonstrated the raw power of Sarah's various grassroots online support groups.

FReepers, FB'ers, and Tweeters all coordinated together to take Wonkette down hard last night and today. Romney's supporters could not have done this, nor could any of the others.

This was pure Palin power on public display for the first time since 2008!

Papa John was an advertiser in the first place?

[Sarah Barracuda]

Add Betty Crocker and Verizon to the list of those who have stopped putting ads on that ridiculous site..I had no idea Verizon was even advertising there

[Sarah Barracuda]

Finishline just dropped them too

Add jimmyjohns sandwiches to the list

I don’t want to give them another click...did anyone see an advert for Right to Life on that ugly site?

Internet advertising with banners etc. is different than print. A lot of the time the web companies bundle the advertising. Advertiser give them the authority to put the ads out there where there will be the most impressions, etc.

I must confess I have no idea what Wonkette is.

This was on Breitbart in the comments.

“One wit who apparently didnt find Jack very funny either bought the Internet domain jackstuef.com. It redirects to the National Down Syndrome Society donation page. I’ll betcha Sarah herself bought that domain!”

BRILLIANT!

Frankly, I don’t want to know what wonkette is.

I must confess I have no idea what Wonkette is.

It's a blog. The original owner/operator (who cashed out a few years ago, iirc) vaulted the site to infamy by posting lurid material from a young Congressional Staffer who was in the process of sleeping her way around Capitol Hill.

It looks like Wonkette lost all of their banner advertising. Now they’ll have to rely 100% on George Soros to pay their bills.

There go Jack's dreams of moving out of mom's basement.

Now he can go to surfing porn sites from mom’s basement!!!!

What I would pay to see Track Palin tap this puke on the shoulder while he was sitting in a coffee house running his disgusting mouth with his puke friends. He would sh!t his pants!!!
