Amid controversy, 'Red Lobster' says 'adios' to Tucker Carlson


Red Lobster Restaurants is the latest company to pull their advertisements from 'Tucker Carlson Tonight', after the host made racist remarks about illegal immigration last month, and remarks about women's pay last week. The company joins dozens of other advertisers who have pulled their ads from his show in the last few weeks.

“Red Lobster’s advertising buying guidelines reflect our core values and commitment to supporting programming that represents the highest standards of good taste, fair practice and objectivity,” the company said in a statement.

“We reserve the right to make changes to our purchases when the dialogue is no longer in line with our criteria,” the company added.

In today's America, that's not surprising. Eventually, I think all big companies and franchises will have to pick a side since the political climate is so polarized. I have nothing against Red Lobster or any company who follows suit, since its their American given right to do so if they please. Although TC has never made any racist remarks, thanks for the rest of the info, daddy.

He said immigrants ( meaning Mexicans) have made America “ dirtier and poorer” which is indeed a racist remark. If it wasn’t, 25 advertisers would not have fled.

Hey, daddy. Can you provide a link if you have the time? If what you say is true and if its verbatim, then I will agree with you 100%. If not, Ill look it up first thing in the morning since I have to log off in a little.

reply

I don’t care whether you agree with me or not.

Daddy, unfortunately, you're not being intellectually honest with your OP as youvve taken the information and comment out of context.
