Does anybody understand this thing with Laura Ingraham?

I do know that she mocked his own admission about being rejected by four colleges.

Then she apologizes to him, I don’t know why. rumor is that Murdoch made her do it.

So now this Hogg guy is allegedly organizing some kind of advertiser boycott?

There’s something very fishy about this story.

She is probably being boxed in by her Fox contract.

Really, this MSM is beyond the pale. Check this out:

Laura's a threat to the dems...she must be stopped.

It is not Laura's nature to apologize for such an innocuous comment. The new owners clearly instructed their newest prime-timer to apologize. They may be testing the young Murdoch's as much as Laura since they're still trying to neuter FOX. Rush has said just as many innocuous statements about Hogg.

The left is out to get popular Fox hosts. Laura Ingraham has fairly high ratings. Who goes after hosts on CNN or NBC?

“David Hogg Rejected By Four Colleges To Which He Applied and whines about it,” Ingraham tweeted on Wednesday. “(Dinged by UCLA with a 4.1 GPA … totally predictable given acceptance rates.)”

Ingraham issued an apology Thursday after David urged his followers to pressure sponsors to pull out of her show.

Well over a dozen advertisers, generally skittish over any social media backlash, have responded by saying they are not running commercials in the show or have canceled plans to do so. Most are moving their ads to other programs on the Fox News schedule, according to a person familiar with those discussions.

Other defectors include Nestle, Johnson & Johnson, TripAdvisor, Nutrish, Expedia, Jos. A. Bank and Hulu, the streaming video service that is one-third owned by Fox News parent 21st Century Fox.

Ingraham is often the fourth most-watched program in all of cable news with about 2.6 million viewers nightly.

Basically Laura screwed up by apologizing to the crisis actor aka David Hogg for her twitter comments.By employing the Trent Lott defense of apology all the time she spread tons of blood in the water which everyone from the Hogg himself to every driveby media in the country is now pouncing on to get their pound of flesh before the body sinks to the bottom of the ocean.
Ingraham’s radio show is really all she ever needed. But I guess the opportunity to do TV was too enticing for her and she tries to do both.
Hannity is the only one I know who currently can do both and he has to be exhausted 24/7 trying to do it all. In additions he is under constant attacks from the left and the drivebys for just being alive.
Probably a bad move on her part. All she really needs is her radio show with millions of listeners. TV is most likely too much.
