Friend,
Fox News is toxic. In the last week, it’s aired hateful attacks against Kamala Harris, Michelle Obama, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, while spreading more dangerous lies about COVID-19 and the US Postal Service.
We've launched a campaign urging Fox News advertisers to stop propping up a network that continually peddles lies about COVID-19 and people of color. Donate now to fuel our advertiser boycott of Fox News.

Friend,
Fox News doesn’t even attempt to conceal the messages of hate and disinformation that its platform relies on.
But at a rapidly accelerating pace, corporations are recognizing that they are responsible for the hateful and dangerous messages their advertising dollars support.
This June, companies including Walt Disney and T-Mobile pulled their money from Tucker Carlson Tonight after the host’s fear-mongering suggestion that Black protesters were going to “come for you.” Just one month later, Free Press Action and our partners ran a campaign that successfully got 1,100+ companies — including Coca-Cola, Ford, Starbucks and Target — to stop advertising on Facebook for one month over the platform’s failure to crack down on white-supremacist hate and recruitment.
The time to boycott Fox is now — will you donate to help support our efforts to call for a large-scale Fox ad boycott today?
In the past week, Fox News has continued to spread dangerous coronavirus conspiracy theories and has aired a number of racist and sexist lies about Kamala Harris.
Help us make sure that companies take responsibility for the broadcasts their advertising dollars make possible — donate now to fuel our campaign to drive a boycott of Fox News ads.
Historically Fox’s audience has been made up largely of a single demographic — people 80 or older, whose lives are now endangered by the network’s COVID-19 lies. But since the pandemic began, the network has begun to attract a significant number of younger viewers — helping Fox News attract a new set of advertisers, like Dell, Google and Samsung.
With your support, we can make this a nonstarter by calling on all new advertisers to cut ties with Fox’s vile platform.
Friend, with your contribution to our work, we’ll build on the massive success of our Facebook ad boycott and show Fox that hate and lies don’t pay.
Thank you for everything you do,
Candace, Nilda and the rest of the Free Press Action team

P.S. We’re calling on Fox News advertisers to stop funding racism, sexism and COVID-19 lies. Donate now to help us fight the hate and disinformation that can threaten people’s lives.
