Tucker Carlson may have one of the most watched shows on cable news, but the Fox News Channel host is losing advertisers – again. Whereas in 2018, over 20 companies yanked their ads after Car…

’s corporate pocket was not a branding position they clearly wanted to be in at this moment in America.While having run ads about 29 times this year on the much watched FNC, Disney also did not respond to request for comment tonight on the issue. However, sources tell Deadline that the ads for ABC shows on Tucker Carlson were placed in error by third parties. The ads will not be running any more with no more placements by the Bob Chapek-led House of Mouse expected on Carlson anytime soon.

“We also realize that now more than ever is the time for us all to further strengthen our commitment to diversity and inclusion everywhere,” CEO Chapek along with Executive Chairman Bob Iger and SVP and Chief Diversity Officer Latondra Newton told Disney staff in“We intend to keep the conversation going, not just today, but for as long as it takes to bring about real change,” the correspondence from the Disney executives concluded.

That’s a stark contrast, to put it mildly, to Carlson’s earlier encapsulations of the past two weeks in America. Last week, the host told his primarily conservative audience that they weren’t “required to be upset” about Floyd’s Memorial Day death in broad daylight on the street by cops. This is the same host who last summer pronounced white supremacy a “hoax” that should be should be put on the “conspiracy theory” shelf.

“This may be a lot of things, this moment we’re living through, but it is definitely not about black lives,” Carlson then told his viewers on June 8, the first day ofn. “Remember that when they come for you, and at this rate, they will,” the FNC host added cryptically. Those words provoked the Deutsche Telekom AG-owned T-Mobile to respond online that “We haven’t run ads onsince early May and have cancelled all future placements.” The cell phone carrier added: “We will continue to support those who stand against racial injustice.”

EmbraceTheJ Think about it, why does it take George Floyd to make Disney and Tmobile to stop supporting racists? Theyve been supporting him for years.

Good. He's a hateful, racist hack. But so are seanhannity and IngrahamAngle.

zachbraff as he should

zachbraff Could've just dumped him based on the fact that he sucks as a 'reporter' AND a human being..

Doesn’t this kind of thing usually lead to the FOX host announcing a “long-planned vacation” starting... NOW”?

Their bigoted house of cards is crumbling. Get with the times or get left behind.

Good! Great news!

So dumb. Disney owns Fox. It’s no big deal not to run their ads on any show on Fox News.

How about “racist POS POV”?

USMCxHeliPilot Do we have to all think the same?

Jesus what was Disney doing there in the first place?

MalcolmNance Hey Tucker 🖕

GMoney88393555 THE TRICK TO BEATING FOX IS TO CREATE ANOTHER CONSERVATIVE NETWORK. AT THE MOMENT,THEY ARE IN A CLASS BY THEMSELVES, SO THEY GET THE LIONS SHARE. BUT IF YOU CREATE OR EVEN DEDICATE PRIMETIME SLOTS 4CONSERVATIVE MEDIA, THEIR FANS WILL NATURALLY SQUANDER AND FOX WILL BE NO BETTER

GMoney88393555 Why was disney involved with him in the 1st place?

MrJonCryer I need to pay attention to advertisers. Never would have believed Disney would need or want to be associated with this shit bird.

deadline just because you idiots drank the Kool aid doesn’t mean we all did some you win some you lose. We know who’s behind this - TuckerCarlson show going no where. BTW AllLivesMatter

MrJonCryer Slowly, Mordor's power is waning.

Thank you, Disney, TMobile

Shame on hollywood elite and far left, antifa, left media Tucker Carlson only speaks the truth Otherwise suck it up for stating truth and facts

We will watch Disney close their parks after we see Main St. USA turn into a Socialist place to play. Poor Walt must be turning in his grave. All lives matter and he never intended the Disney Dream to be political.

Right now as I speak I'm cancelling the Disney channel and changing my phone service from Tmobile to Verizon. Tucker Carlson veiwers tell those corporate sponsors to stick it!

Americans can now boycott Disney and Tmobile and why we're at it burn your NBA,NFL,and MLB jerseys Also boycott all games before they start.

MalcolmNance Here we go again.

Why cause he says the truth instead of pandering to the masses like every other thing out there

Yeah, Disney covers for pedophiles so no big loss there.

Disney and T Mobile were advertising on TC’s show?

Well Disney owns Fox, if they really cared they would drop him 🙄

Oh no, what a shame.

Why does he look like he goes to the same tanning salon as Bunker Boy

MalcolmNance Who's left on his show to advertise that we can stop buying their products?

zachbraff 👆🏽

Oooooops!!!🙊

MalcolmNance How do TuckerCarlson fans think they know what is racist?

MalcolmNance Stoking fear into the hearts of the Trumpies

Something something about telling the truth becoming a revolutionary act.

MalcolmNance He is a smug little putz

TuckerCarlson is THE best news anchor on TV. Everyone else is a propagandist moron it’s kinda sad. tuckercarlsonforever

MalcolmNance Bye bye loser

Truly disturbing that none of these companies had any problems with tucker carlson before now. Says as much about them as it does carlson.

MalcolmNance Thank you Disney and all the other advertisers.

Now? Now Disney sees a problem?

MalcolmNance BoycottTuckerCarlson BoycottWhiteSupermasistCarlson BoycottDeplorable TimeForTuckerCarlsonToGo

IStandWithTucker

CaliHoggin Truth hurts. F the liberal mob.

zachbraff DEFUND TUCKER THE FUCKER

Wow. Aisa India mein hoye toh maza aa jaye but yaha toh brands bhi chaatukarita mein busy hai.

How much ad time can the My Pillow guy really afford?

GilTPolitics Losing advertising money is literally the ONLY language cable news speaks. 💰💰💰

Please look up PC Blakelock

Keep pushing and losing him more advertisers. No question the racist asshole made the racist comment. Now time for him to face the music. Once his sponsors leave Tucker will have no show :).

where can i get the full video of george floyd bein murdered ? my mom still hasnt seen the full thing and its impossible to find. i find that weird considering a vid like that would have hundreds of millions of views on youtube bu now... but u only get news bs when u look for it.

MalcolmNance Finally companies are waking up. Fox News has viewers but after Fat Donnie gets booted outrage numbers will drop and you better be on the right side

zachbraff Yes. Yes please. Keep sweeping Fox News off the rug of existence.

zachbraff

MalcolmNance Thank you. Now end it w/ fox. They allowed it.

MalcolmNance Good.

Tucker Carlson is nobody important. He's just a parrot of trump (last name intentionally not capitalized). Like trump, who has offered no words of conciliation to a grieving country, he only escalates tensions with threats and incendiary language.

MrJonCryer About Tucking Fime.

MalcolmNance Damned

GOOD!

mysticalblends Fox Propaganda

zachbraff Oh, becuase he had his own opinion and wasn’t cowtowing to the mob? Got it.

MalcolmNance It’s about time

zachbraff In crappy related news, Disney was sponsoring Tucker Carlson?

How long will it be until Fox announces Tucker is going on a totally-scheduled-before-all-of-this-shit-broke-down extended vacation? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

MrJonCryer And looks like he is using the same clown make-up as bunkerbitch realDonaldTrump 🤡

zachbraff This POS and Fox News in whole needs to be removed from the Networks all together. I don't care if a news source leans right, but when they constantly spew racially infused hate all the time that has and will lead to violence and extreme misinformation that crosses a line.

616_warren Who cares? Disney is deep state and a pedo nest

ABOUT DAMN TIME!

MalcolmNance This guy.

zachbraff His new sponsors are Surplus Sergeant MREs and Uncle Bubba's Sheet Shack 😁

They need to pull out from the racist, propaganda network altogether. Disney TMobile Verizon stop advertising on Fox “News”.

Like he cares

MalcolmNance How funky is your chicken, how funky is your chicken, how loose is your goose, how loose is your goose, how funky is your chicken, how funky is your chicken, now shake your caboose, shake your caboose!

Then they’ll all come back..🙄

Good

zachbraff The racist right’a ugly head

MalcolmNance Yeah but I still got my chicken!

Thank you starwars MTFBWY

Because the truth hurts. TuckerCarlson , keep calling it like it is!

MalcolmNance Like Disney wasn't the brain child of a Nazi.

You come at the king, you best not miss.

List of his other advertisers please?

MalcolmNance Dude's running out of cable newd networks to get kicked off of.

MalcolmNance we gonna keep on with the boycott until he stops this stuff

Waiting patiently to see if Sesame Street will endorse him

MalcolmNance Defund Tucker Carlson!

I’ll say it again, TuckerCarlson and seanhannity are WhiteSupremacist sympathizers at least and facistapologists at most AmericaOrTrump ComplicitAF GOPCorruptionOverCountry RacismIsAVirus SayTheirNames

You love to see it.

MalcolmNance This is good. But doesn’t Fox get a fixed rate from cable/streaming service providers who’s packages they are part of? How bad does losing advertisers really hurt their shows?

MrJonCryer About time.

MalcolmNance 'D'oh!'

MrJonCryer Good now Fox needs to lose tucker, hannity, Ingram he’ll get rid of them all they’re ALL in-American traitors who incite violence and fuel division.

MalcolmNance

MalcolmNance I hope he loses all of them - bye bye

MalcolmNance good

FoxNews is pro-realDonaldTrump and because of this President given Federal Govt priority by briefing news and comments through that channel! So how could this news channel will be neutral ?

MalcolmNance

MalcolmNance Ok this is what will happen? Jack ASS Tucker will take a vacation he was scheduled to take and be back in 2 week's! Then he will start it all over again!

MalcolmNance Why did he have them to begin with? It’s not as if his views are new

MalcolmNance Gone Boy

MalcolmNance Maybe Swanson will pick up the slack?

MalcolmNance It’s about time this fucker lost his advertisers! He has no understanding what is going on in the world!

MalcolmNance He only needs one sponsor.

MalcolmNance Good! Now fox needs to lose good old Tucker!!!!!

MalcolmNance

MrJonCryer If it piles up, Fox WILL shitcan Tuck. Ask BillO about that. Lose advertisers, lose your job.

MalcolmNance Good. Disney has stopped supporting this racist on FauxEntertainment Thank you DisneyParks

MalcolmNance 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

MalcolmNance They back off for a little while and when things calm down, they go right back to advertising on his show. I’m not impressed yet.

Awe..the deep state is upset...what's next? Maybe Clinton's and their foundation get arrested for child sex trafficking? Who knows! CRAZY ass media!🤣

MalcolmNance They really should just name this show “Tucker’s Racism Hour”

MalcolmNance So, up till now everything was a-okay with them?

MalcolmNance It's about time.

MalcolmNance Now, if they could lose Tucker.

MalcolmNance Elmo made some calls.

MalcolmNance

Pretty soon all they will have is Mike Lindell

What took so long? 👏 👏

Well this is good news

1 show by far. Price just went up for advertiser who will wait in line to reach this enormous audience

MrJonCryer How does he still have a show He’s a fricking clown.

MrJonCryer Lachlan Murdoch running FoxNews for daddy is directly responsible for the hateful, racist lies feed to viewers every night.

MrJonCryer “Oh boy!”

As a result of TuckerCarlson's tirade against the BLM movement and George Floyd's murder, the Fox News Channel host is losing advertisers – again DeadlineDominic reports

MrJonCryer Excellent!!!

MrJonCryer Good! Keep it going!

How many times do advertisers say they’ve pulled out of Fox News? At this point they’d be commercial free if true. Ad and media buyers need to leave Fox News out of the f’ing ad budgets.

FINALLY. (Also why does it look like Trump was his makeup artist?)

foxnews Tucker Carlson is a disgrace. I will not watch Fox or spend one cent on any of their advertisers. Shame on all of you!

The biggest losers are the people who want him cancelled. What useless people.

Never saw a Disney ad on his show.

Why is he on the air

Oh no, not Disney....

Soo ok me one should force feed him bowties and swanson frozen dinners until he explodes.

😂😂😂😂 I just came by to laugh. Jackass!
