He doesn't have any power.

I explained this earlier today. These cable news shows -- even the best of them -- have such low viewership that they aren't worth the trouble for most advertisers. Even if just David Hogg's extended family stopped doing business with these companies, their lost revenue would probably be more than whatever they get from advertising on Fox News.

Might this be the Anti-Christ personified?:

Nothing of the kind. Progressive Insurance has that name because Liberal Insurance wouldn’t be far left enough. The guy who built it up was a left-wing mega donor:

Peter Lewis, the longtime head of Progressive Corp., died Saturday at age 80.

In the business world, Lewis will be remembered for growing a modest automobile insurance company into one of the nation’s biggest operations. In the political realm, he’ll be remembered for being one of the biggest liberal mega-donors in history.

It’s an indicator of how many liberal morons fall ass-backward into management positions that they have no business being in.

I was thinking the same thing. Is there some kind of conservative equivalent to Media Matter to boycott advertisers on The View or MSNBC shows?

I never was a big fan of boycotts, but this is getting ridiculous. I can’t believe how fast these companies are caving.
