Pillow humper's ads back on Fux Noise

MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell said that his ads would return to Fox News next week after he angrily removed them in July, according to The Wall Street Journal.

One of Fox News' biggest sponsors, Lindell, had removed the ads amid a spat with the network over its refusal to air a commercial advertising a symposium that he said would prove his voter-fraud claims involving the 2020 election.

According to reports, Lindell had then attempted to mend the relationship with Fox, but all of the commercials he pitched were rejected.

Lindell and Fox now seem to have reached a compromise, according to The Wall Street Journal, and Lindell will air nonpolitical ads on the channel again.

No other audience was stupid enough to buy his shitty pillows.

... pillow boy started taking himself too seriously, when his whole dog and pony act is the marketing group he hired.

If he'd shut up, he could have been another Ron Popiel, now he's just another crackhouse shit louse.

In ten years he'll be in a "where is he now feature" with a pressure washing business and living in a trailerhouse claiming he's never been happier, though he wishes he'd a held onto some of the dosh.

after Powder Mike abandoned his market share.

So, capitalism sucks. Plus, I'm sure he's paying a premium for his ads now. Where before, I imagine it was a wink-wink nod-nod arrangement.

THEN the Dominion VMC $1.2 billion payout is gonna hit and hurt.

It will be a second-hand-rented-from-the-grocery-store power washer he's using in the 30 second filler biopic.

I was watching something on DABL last night. His stupid-ass commercial run during every goddamn break. I am not exaggerating. Even if he weren't such a loathsome individual, I still would not buy his product just because of the saturation ads. He shows up on all these other channels that specialize in old reruns (Antenna TV, Twist, H&I, ION...), as well. Hopefully, he's trying to earn some money to get the psychiatric care he desperately needs.
