Fox News host and presidential adviser Tucker Carlson has lost a number of big name advertisers on his nightly television show over the last few days, with Disney, T-Mobile, Papa John's, SmileDirectClub, and Vari. Tucker Carlson Tonight has seen advertisers taking their business elsewhere as Carlson doubles down on bigoted rhetoric – telling Fox viewers that they are not "required to be upset" about George Floyd's killing by Minneapolis police, and casting protests around the country as part of an ancient struggle between "thugs" and "normal people," just as two examples – while anti-racist and Black Lives Matter protests ramp up all around the country.
