Today’s Action: Tell Infiniti USA to pull advertisements from Fox News host Tucker Carlson

We doubt we need to explain the reputation of Fox News to you. But just in case: it’s a cesspool of racist, sexist, anti-LGBTQ, isolationist, climate-change-denying hosts, each competing for the crown of Best Bigot.

And Tucker Carlson is a frequent recipient of that unfortunate crown, notorious for his antagonistic attitude towards women and immigrants.

Tucker Carlson isn’t stupid – he does it because it attracts audiences, which in turn attracts advertisers, who pay him money. But here’s where capitalism becomes our tool: advertisers don’t like controversy highlighted on their own brands. Which means we don’t go after hate-mongering hosts; rather, we demand their advertisers use their money elsewhere…

…including the car company, Infiniti USA, which advertised on Tucker Carlson’s show last week.

Contact the car company Infiniti USA via Twitter or Facebook and tell them you do not agree with their choice to fund Tucker Carlson’s anti-immigrant, extreme-sexist views on Fox News.

This isn’t the first time Tucker Carlson experienced an exodus of advertisers. Earlier this year, he called women “extremely primitive” and compared them to dogs, and defended child-rapist Warren Jeffs. More than 30 advertisers bolted and rightfully so.

But not Infiniti.

Tucker Carlson has said immigrants make our country “poorer and dirtier” and blamed women’s participation in the workforce for the higher incarceration rates of men. Oh…and he also said it’s “honorable and necessary” for women to give birth to their rapist’s children.

So why is Infiniti USA still advertising with them? Great question – ask them yourself.

Demand Infiniti USA permanently discontinue their advertising on Fox News’ Tucker Carlson Tonight. Contact them via Twitter or Facebook and tell them you won’t buy a car from a company that supports xenophobes, bigots, and misogynists.
