At least two advertisers say they're suspending ads from comedian Samantha Bee's television show. The backlash follows the latest episode of TBS's "Full Frontal with Samantha Bee" in which Bee called first daughter Ivanka Trump a vulgar name.

Autotrader said in its statement that Bee's comments were "offensive and unacceptable."

"As a result, Autotrader has suspended its sponsorship of Full Frontal with Samantha Bee," the company said. When asked if Autotrader planned to resume airing ads on "Full Frontal" in the future, a spokesperson said: "We will not run Autotrader advertising on Samantha Bee's show moving forward."

The FCC.

TBS is cable/satellite not broadcast.

show runners troll UCLA and other places in LA where college kids hang out. Listen to the audience reaction when she called Ivanka the name. Cheers. That’s what’s scary.

Also listen to Fallon and the others a they scream the giests name and get roars from the young women in the audience.

These “kids” are being programmed to follow the leader, a celebrity host who knows where their buttons are.

They troll to give out free tickets to the shows to pack the audience.

I don’t know who watches her. She is mean, unfunny, and crude. But then that describes most liberal entertainers.

Found this:

Samantha Bee called Ivanka Trump a feckless c*nt on her show and I would like us to make liberals see that there can’t be double standards on these things. So we hit the show where it hurts, their wallet. These are the advertisers that advertised on Full Frontal:

Taco Bell
The Orcin Man
Apple
Verizon
Haagen dazs
Jim Beam
Windows
Febreze fresh
Discover
Geico
Snickers
DP association
Out Shine Snacks
State Farm

You know what to do. Cuatomer feedback, twitter messages, calls and whatever you have time for.

Because she is a Commie, and TBS allowed her to say those disgusting things..at least with Roseanne she used her own personal twitter feed, with Bee, the show was taped in advance, they knew what she was going to say and AGREED with it..this is the left people..they want us dead and we hate them, we will never be able to live among these piles of sh*t

That does not apply to cable only shows. They aren’t using the public airwaves, therefore, they are not subject to those rules.
