IBM (IBM.N) on Thursday said it had immediately suspended all advertising on Elon Musk-owned X after a report found its ads were placed next to content promoting Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party.
The report comes a day after Musk endorsed an antisemitic post on X that falsely claimed members of the Jewish community were stoking hatred against white people.
Media watchdog Media Matters said it found that corporate advertisements by IBM, Apple (AAPL.O), Oracle (ORCL.N) and Comcast's (CMCSA.O) Xfinity were being placed alongside antisemitic content.
"IBM has zero tolerance for hate speech and discrimination and we have immediately suspended all advertising on X while we investigate this entirely unacceptable situation," IBM said in a statement.

Pro-Nazi. Intent? You mean like Hamas’ charter?
Why? Afraid people might discover truth about IBM?
IBM ‘dealt directly with Holocaust organisers’

What? I don't believe that for a second, he wouldn't be that stupid.
X CEO said they’re against discrimination of any kind.
I guess whites aren’t a “kind”.
Maybe they’re still pissed from not getting any nazi scientists after WWII.
They tolerated making computers to number Jews during the Holocaust.
I guess IBM doesn’t want people to remember how they helped organize lists of Jews for the Nazis to kill.
“IBM has zero tolerance for hate speech and discrimination”
And how many millions of dollars did you give to the racist black lives matter, IBM?
Dude, show us where you were touched on the doll.
Every post you make is some form of Jew bashing.
Pretty pathetic.
I’d put good money down that IBM has contributed money to AOC, Ilhan Omar and Maxine Water’s campaigns...
And if so, how come IBM hasn’t condemned them?
so the add appeared next to Democratic Party content?
I didn’t know they were still in business.
Was that before or after they halted all employees 401K matching. Wonderful company.
Anyone who knows how IBM got its start might know being next to Nazi content is very appropriate for IBM.
Yeah, companies would be well served to avoid advertising in the same places that IBM does.
Exactly. IBM has good reason to be sensitive about the association.
