On Wednesday, a number of companies includingCars.com, Peloton, and Leesa Sleeppulled their ads from Hannity following pressure from left-wing activists over Hannitys pursuit of now-retracted claims made by Fox News that murdered DNC employee Seth Rich had contact with Wikileaks before his death. <\/p>\n
In a series of tweets, Hannity accusedfigures including George Soros, David Brock of Media Matters, and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton of liberal fascism, after his advertisers were reportedly inundated with emails from left-wing groups asking them to stop advertising on the show. <\/p>\n
Now Bozell, whose organizationthe Media Research Center analyzes liberal bias across the mainstream media, has accused advertisers ofjoining in the liberal cause and advancing the liberal strategy and becoming servants of the politically correct. <\/p>\n
He also attacked the military financial services company USAA for succumbing to the pressure of left-wing extremists, adding that Hannity has for decades been a fierce supporter of the military at every turn. <\/p>\n
Hannityis now the second Fox News show to have ads pulled this year, after over 90 companies droppedadvertising on Bill OReillys showThe OReilly Factor over allegations of sexual harassment, following pressure from left-wing activists. OReilly was eventually released by the network, despite being Americas highest-rated cable news host. <\/p>\n
We have remained silent for far too long. A bridge has been crossed. Stay tuned, Bozell added. <\/p>\n
