Antifar 04/09/18 8:12:24 PM #1:	https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2018/04/09/sinclair-commentator-resigns- after-threatening-to-sexually-assault-parkland-survivor-david-hogg/?utm_term=.4fa27b2b8038 A conservative commentator at a Sinclair Broadcast Group-owned television station in St. Louis has resigned after a statement he made threatening to sexually assault David Hogg drew harsh criticism and sparked the beginnings of an advertiser boycott. Jamie Allman, who hosts a nightly news show on KDNL, a Sinclair-owned ABC affiliate in St. Louis, as well as a morning FM radio show, wrote on Twitter that he was hanging out getting ready, to sexually assault David Hogg with a hot poker. Busy working. Preparing, read the March 26 tweet, which is too vulgar to print here in full, but was published as a screenshot by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, as the remark begun to draw more scrutiny in recent days. Advertisers, including Ruths Chris Steakhouse, St. Louis health center Palm Health, and local real estate office the Gellman Team all announced they would stop advertising on Allmans shows, spurred on by activists who took to social media to highlight the commentators remarks, as well as Democratic state lawmaker Stacey Newman and others. We have accepted Mr. Allmans resignation, and his show has been cancelled, said Ronn Torossian, the CEO of the PR firm 5W, who is acting as a Sinclair spokesman, said in response to questions sent to the media company by The Washington Post. The anger generated by Allmans remarks is reminiscent of the outrage after another conservative commentator, Fox News host Laura Ingraham, mocked Hogg after it was announced he did not get into some top colleges, only to face a fierce backlash from activists and advertisers. Advertising space for her show in the two days after the tweet fell by more than half and at least 18 advertisers have pulled out of her prime-time show. --- kin to all that throbs <cite>Antifar posted [p:899365613] in Sinclair c...
