Samantha Bee struggling to regain advertisers (13 sponsors dropped her)

A new report shows Samantha Bee's late night show "Full Frontal" hasn't been able to regain its advertisers after the host attacked Ivanka Trump in May.

The liberal comedian came under fire when she used an extreme vulgarity to slam Ivanka Trump in her monologue on May 30 over a photograph the first daughter shared on social media.

"You know, Ivanka, that's a beautiful photo of you and your child...But let me just say, one mother to another, do something about your dad's immigration practices, you feckless c---. He listens to you," Bee said. Bee apologized on a June 6 episode, but the damage was done as her advertisers dropped her.

Samantha Bee's "Full Frontal" lost 13 advertisers after her Ivanka Trump remarks. (Turner)

Before the vulgar remark, Bee's TBS show had 19 advertisers but when she apologized on the June 6 episode, she was down to a mere six and has been unable to gain them back weeks later, a new Newsbusters report shows.

Netflix will pick her up. She’s right in line with a company that has Susan Rice on its board.

TBS will go into receivership before they cancel her feckless show.

The media has to maintain the lie she's a hit and has a large and loyal following.

She never did but The Resistance cannot concede are a minority.

She still has a show. Roseanne lost a top rated show for mildly insulting a leftist.

TBS should be punished.

That isn’t nearly as bad as smearing your nail polish on the way out the salon door. I don’t feel bad for her.

But she’s still on the air. The Lib media protects its own. They’ll weather a slump in advertising just to deny Trump a victory.

Ha Ha Samantha C, nobody believed your fake apology. Your so called career is circling the toilet bowl and there’s nothing you can do about it.

By the way, Samantha C, do you kiss your little children with that filthy mouth of yours?

With the current trend of people in the executive suites these days, virtue signaling is more important than turning a profit. And if the shareholders complain, what do the shareholders know, anyway.

Such corporations are Twentieth Century Motors in real life. They deserve to die, and they need to die.
