WEST SACRAMENTO CA (IFS) -- It only took 22 plus hours for Laura Ingraham to "Get It" after bullying the young David Hogg, who targeted her advertisers, and now they are dropping from her show like flies dying from Raid Insect Spray.
Ingraham's late apology that came on "Holy Week" to the Parkland Shooting victims was too little, too late. It appears, that she was never going to issue an apology -- only because it was "Holy Week". Other than that, she was going to take a pass.
By insulting all of those future consumers of their products, the sponsors will have to let Ms. Ingraham fall on the sword. Yes, the president of the United States can and will continue to make irate comments and statements that hurt and scare the soul, he will get his "time in the steel cage" when it comes to Special Counselor Mueller and the Vote of 2018.
The next thing, is that one can not match the expert savvy of these young adults when it comes to Social Media, they mastered it, when they were eight years old. So for us old timers, we will never be able to catch up with these young adults when it comes to spreading the news. They have it down to a science. Mr. Hogg's reach on this platform is greater then Ms. Ingraham's reach on the boob tube.
The question is, will Ms. Ingraham weather the storm? She may. However, this writer doubt it very much. She has placed herself right in the middle of a "Bull's Eye", and there are to many social media guns trained on her, and dodging media bullets will not let you out of the fight.
She has mistreated not only the Parkland High School students; but many members of the National Basketball Association (NBA) with her "bullying" attitude.

Fox News host Laura Ingraham is in damage-control mode after her tweet targeting Parkland school shooting survivor David Hogg led to multiple sponsors pulling their ads from her show.
Ingraham, the conservative political commentator who hosts The Ingraham Angle weeknights on Fox News, apologized on Thursday “for any upset or hurt my tweet caused” Hogg, referring to an earlier tweet that mocked the high school senior for getting rejected by four colleges, adding that he “whines about it.”
David Hogg, a student at Parkland’s Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School and an outspoken advocate for stricter gun control laws, fired back at Ingraham’s initial tweet by calling for sponsors to drop their advertisements on her show. As of Thursday morning, multiple sponsors — including TripAdvisor, WayFair and Rachael Ray’s Nutrish pet food brand — had confirmed they would no longer advertise on Ingraham’s show.
