Yeah, because you were shelling out 395.00 for a Tom Ford plain black t-shirt before he said that.
Breitbart wants everyone to destroy Kelloggs, because they pulled their advertising from the site. Boycott! Just got back from the store, bought some Kellogg products (though most likely they'll go to the racoons in the woodland by my house, that stuff is way too sweet). Lets, see..I'll never get to see Hamilton, because it's sold out for years. Boycott! Starbucks is doing fine, that "protest" likely made them money. The "real Americans" want to organize an on-line boycott through FB of Google, on IE. People have been pointing out that every site they use has a liberal "bias"..and they are being trolled to shit for it.
Oh don't fool yourself, Breitbart is driving Kellogg's shareholders crazy. It's NEVER a good idea to piss off half the population to various levels. It's actually really fucking stupid and Breitbart is making them pay.
You lost me right here...That you think that half the population is going to "punish" Kellogg exaggerates Breibart's actual power, aside from Trump sadly taking a fascist on board (in Steve Bannon). I did check the actual unique views of Breitbart. It's not 45 or 65 million. As of Nov. 1, it was 12,500,000 unique views ( not sure how many went to see what was going on and went..eeeewwwww). What surprised me most was Huff Po had 110,000,000 at the same time (I never go there). So yeah, no.
Secondly, I am very sure that Kellogg took potential ramifications into account when they ceased to advertise at Breitbart. Keep in mind that Kellogg is the 2nd largest snack company in the
world, only Pepsi-Co beats them. Somehow I doubt that some whiny, bitchass hypocrites like the tough guys at Breitbart (except when they don't get their way).are going to hurt them that much. Apparently, Kellogg felt it was worth it to not be associated with such a toxic, hateful site. I've read Milo Yiannopoulos. And Ben Shapiro's reasons for leaving Breitbart (when it happened). So don't try to deny it. Are they boycotting All-State? And the other companies that have also pulled their ads from Breitbart? Why the shit-fit about Kellogg? Little snowflakes.
And it's the internet. Just as many non-fascists and their useful idiots read, too. So perhaps it's not a good idea, as you say , to piss off the other "half" of the population either. I bought my first Kellogg products in years last night.
