David Hogg might need more security than Scott Pruitt.

A conservative commentator who sent a violent and vulgar tweet saying he would use "a hot poker" to sexually assault a 17-year-old survivor of a Florida high school shooting has resigned from a St. Louis TV station after several advertisers withdrew from his show.

KDNL-TV has canceled "The Allman Report" and accepted Jamie Allman's resignation, according to a brief statement from Ronn Torossian, a spokesman for the Sinclair Broadcast Group, which operates the TV station. Before the show's launch in January 2015, KDNL-TV touted it as a nontraditional newscast with a conservative spin.

Allman hasn't responded to messages from the Associated Press seeking comment. He was absent Monday from his show on KFTK-FM. The radio station's owner, Emmis Communications, did not immediately respond to an email Tuesday asking about Allman's status.

Several businesses pulled advertising from Allman's shows after he sent the March 26 tweet targeting David Hogg. Allman's Twitter account was "locked" shortly after he sent the tweet, restricting access to his account, but a screenshot of it has been widely circulated on social media.

I have seen some really hateful remarks directed at David Hogg and the other students who are leading the protests, but this is the worst yet. Enough is enough.
